Unique or quirky places to stay in the UK

[crazypiglady]

With a 10& 13 year old…we’ve stayed in a treehouse, which was brilliant, and a little underground hobbit house so looking for something fun & different like that? I’m trawling through Airbnb & Coolstays but wondered if anyone had stayed somewhere specific they’d recommend?

Have you looked at the Landmark Trust?

We've booked a stay next month with these - lots of options, but as I've not been I can't vouch for them - but these are just a hosting service like AirBnB

A lighthouse? No idea where but always fancied that!

Not cheap but animal lodges at West Midlands safari park, or Port Lympne.

Stayed in a windmill (without the sails) a few years ago. Decorated to a really high spec, hot tub outside, four poster bed, that kind of thing.

It was somewhere near Northampton and was called something like Brandeston.

Lighthouse! Look through trinity house. Fab holidays as kids.

How about a stay on a vintage bus? I have stayed here, it was fun: www.thebusstop.scot

Thistledown Glamping & Cottages in West Wales.

Marsden Grotto?

Landmark trust is definitely worth checking

There's a place you can stay on a helicopter Isle of Wight I think just can't remember the name, plus there's www.melbournehall.com/johnny-vegas-glamping/#the-vehicles who also has a helicopter
