Unusual holiday homes (6087)
Why stay in a mediocre hotel when you can stay in an unusual holiday home? From exotic and colourful riads in Morocco to glamourous yachts in Florida, Holiday Lettings has thousands of unique rentals to inspire and excite inquisitive travellers.
If your go-to is unusual holiday cottages in the UK, how about trying something a little more adventurous? Go for an atmospheric castle in the Scottish highlands, or maybe soak up the history at a 14-century trullo. The memories you'll make with a stay in a unique holiday home will be treasured forever.
Castle holidays
What could be more grand than staying in your own private castle for a week or two? Kids will love playing princes and princesses and you can lord it up like a king or queen! From 15-century stately piles in Scotland to imposing and impressive castles overlooking the Spanish hills, Holiday Lettings has hundreds of castles to hire.
If you're looking for a traditional French chateau for rent, the Nouvelle-Aquitaine region is a great place to start. Choose from a wide range of chateau holidays where you can swim in the lake, enjoy barbecues in the sun and explore the diverse landscape, including the peaks of the Pyrenees and the sandy beaches on the coast. So, when it comes to chateau hire, France is hard to beat.
Yacht rentals in Florida
Holidays don't get more glam than this! Book a yacht for hire and you'll feel like an A-lister for a week or two. Quirky holiday cottages are all well and good, but if you want to get a taste of the high-life, nothing quite beats speeding along the waves with the wind in your hair on a luxury yacht.
For a huge choice of yacht rentals, Florida is a safe bet. If it's natural beauty and wildlife you're looking for, hire a yacht near the Everglades. If you fancy a spot of shopping before enjoying dinner, head to the coastal cities of St Petersburg, Tampa, and Naples. Or for world-famous beaches, choose the Florida Keys and Miami.
Trulli in Puglia
This traditional Apulian dry stone hut with a conical roof is one of the most unusual holiday accommodation types around. These stunning homes are so special that the trulli in Alberobello, Italy, are are UNESCO World Heritage Site. Some date back to the 14th century, so you'll find historical features in every nook and cranny of your trullo rental.
Trulli houses in Puglia are not only pleasing on the eye, they are practical, too. The thick stone walls keep the interiors cool and, as you'll find plenty of trulli with pools on Holiday Lettings, feeling uncomfortably hot won't be a worry! You can visit the region's medieval sights and come back to a relaxing trullo in Puglia at the end of a busy day.
Cave houses to rent
Like the Italian trulli and quirky cottages in the UK, Spanish cave houses are a welcome retreat from the midday sun. These historic homes owe their existence to the region's unique geology – eruptions of rock formed from the sediments of a prehistoric sea. Holiday Lettings has a fantastic range of cave houses to rent in Spain, so whether you're looking for a romantic bolthole or a larger cave house with a pool for families, you're sure to find it.
Altiplano de Granada in Andalucía is home to some of the oldest cave houses in Spain. Stay in this beautiful region to visit world-famous landmarks such as the Alcázar castle in Seville, the Los Alcornocales Natural Park and Córdoba's Mezquita Mosque-Cathedral.
Shepherds hut holidays
A wise sage once said that good things come in small packages, and that is very true of shepherds hut holidays. What they lack in space, they make up for in character. And anyway... who needs sprawling interiors when you've got the wide open countryside on your doorstep? Many have wood-burners and fire pits so you can book shepherd huts to rent, whatever the weather!
The historic county of Yorkshire with its Roman and Viking history is home to many unusual holiday lets, from unique holiday cottages to modern barn conversions. The shepherd hut rentals in this area make the most of the stunning countryside, which includes two national parks. You'll also find plenty to choose from nearer the towns and cities. Visit Jorvik Viking Centre in York for a fascinating day out, or maybe enjoy a relaxed afternoon at an uber-cool cafe in Leeds.
Riads in Marrakech
These traditional Moroccan homes typically consist of two or more storeys around an Andalusian-style courtyard with a fountain. They were once stately city homes of rich merchants and courtiers, but today, many have been converted into stunning holiday homes. Their unique structure means that they can accommodate large groups, or families, wanting to travel together. Guests can enjoying the privacy of their own area with the opportunity to socialise in the central courtyard.
If you're looking for riad holidays, Marrakech, and Morocco more broadly, is the obvious choice. With its ancient cities, colourful markets and intoxicating cuisine, this diverse country will have you returning again and again. Go camel trekking in the desert, explore the rugged coastline or potter around the bustling souks before relaxing back at your riad in Morocco.
Looking for something outrageously different for your next holiday? Then take a look at these holiday castles, windmills, yurts and manor houses that are all available for you to book and make your holiday an extraordinary one.
And there's plenty to choose from: you could set your loved one's heart racing with a fairy-tale break to a French chateau or rent a houseboat in Amsterdam with your pals. Or how about escaping to a cosy log cabin in the mountains, or going glamping on a yurt holiday in Devon or Cornwall.
If stunning and unusual architecture is for you, rent a regal castle in the Scottish Highlands, a quirky lighthouse by the sea or return to a bygone age on a windmill holiday in Greece.
