Christmas just isn\u2019t Christmas without at least one viewing of Kate Winslet\u2019s festive romantic classic, The Holiday, from feel-good romcom queen Nancy Meyers.<\/p>\n

For those who don\u2019t already know, the movie follows Winslet\u2019s lovelorn journalist Iris, as she does a spontaneous house swap for Christmas with Cameron Diaz\u2019s burned-out Hollywood producer Amanda Woods, with Iris trading her idyllic cottage and sleepy village for a week in Amanda\u2019s sprawling LA mansion. Ditto with Amanda, who tries her luck in the wintry countryside wearing plenty of cashmere and a pair of\u00a0 Louboutins as she relocates to Iris\u2019 cosy cottage out in the sticks.<\/p>\n

Soon enough, Iris soon finds herself falling in love with sensitive music composer Miles Dumont, played by Jack Black, while Diaz\u2019s Amanda falls for the charms of Iris\u2019s wayward brother, Jude Law\u2019s Graham.<\/p>\n

The ensemble cast includes Rufus Sewell, John Krasinksi, Sarah Parish and John Burns.<\/p>\n

Iris\u2019 quintessentially English countryside cottage is meant to be tucked away in the Cotswolds, and when it\u2019s dusted with snow, it looks like the perfect place for a cosy Christmas break.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re new to the film or you\u2019ve been wondering over the last 14 years where the cottage has been filmed \u2013 either for a fun pilgrimage or to pick somewhere similar to stay over the festive period \u2013 we\u2019ve done some digging on Iris\u2019 cottage and Amanda\u2019s glamorous Beverly Hills home.<\/p>\n

Read on for everything you need to know about where the film is set and where Iris and Amanda\u2019s homes are located.<\/p>\n

Where is Kate Winslet\u2019s home?<\/h2>\n

We hate to be the bearer of bad news, but Winslet\u2019s enchanting Rosehill Cottage doesn\u2019t actually exist, according to House & Garden<\/a>, as the exteriors were created in a field and the interiors are sets. However, the crew drew their inspiration from a charming real-life cottage\u00a0 \u2013 Honeysuckle Cottage, in Holmbury St Mary, near Dorking.<\/p>\n

The three-bedroom property \u201cenjoys delightful landscaped gardens, which incorporates an extensive area of flagstone laid terrace with lovely views\u201d, says Rightmove<\/a>. It also retains many character features including an inglenook fireplace with Jotul log burner and exposed timbers. Just like in the movie, the cottage is situated near two pubs.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the English country village scenes were shot in Shere, which is situated in the Guildford district of Surrey. Shere is on the commuter belt, as it\u2019s only an hour away from London, which makes sense for Kate\u2019s Iris, who is a Telegraph journalist working in the capital.<\/p>\n

The pretty village of Shere is so picturesque,\u00a0 it\u2019s considered the most photographed of all Surrey towns. Many hit films have been shot in Shere, including Four Weddings and a Funeral, Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason and The Wedding Date.<\/p>\n

The scenes that feature Diaz\u2019s Amanda shopping (and drinking red wine straight from the bottle) were filmed in Godalming, a market town on the River Wey.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Jude Law\u2019s Graham\u2019s stunning home Mill House, is located in Wonersh. Wonersh is a village and civil parish in the Waverley district of Surrey, England and Surrey Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.<\/p>\n

Found among the rolling countryside, Wonersh has been ranked among the richest villages in the country.<\/p>\n

Where was Cameron Diaz\u2019s mansion?<\/h2>\n

We see Kate\u2019s Iris living the dream when she relocates to Amanda\u2019s Tuscan-style mansion, which happens to be a real home in San Marino, California. The southern Californian property was designed by Wallace Neff, who has built homes for Jennifer Aniston and Diane Keaton no less, according to Town & Country<\/a>.<\/p>\n

\n

The seven-bedroom, six-bath home is located at 1883 Orlando Road in San Marino, and it has become a tourist attraction ever since it made its on-screen debut in The Holiday. As for its interior scenes, those were filmed at the Sony Studios.<\/p>\n

Arthur Abbot\u2019s Old Hollywood mansion<\/h2>\n

\u00a0The sprawling mansion belonging to <\/span>Eli Wallach\u2019s Arthur Abbot, who becomes a confidante to Winslet\u2019s Iris, is real too, located at\u00a0163 S. Rockingham Avenue in Brentwood, previously owned to comedienne Phyllis Diller for more than 40 years.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

The property boasts 22-rooms, and according to production notes, production designer Jon Hutman selected the Diller residence for Arthur\u2019s home because of \u201cits aura of old Hollywood glamour\u201d (LA mag<\/a>).<\/p>\n

The Holiday is available to stream on Prime Video.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
