Boutique Houseboat, Cambridge

So we watched Below Deck on Netflix and this was as close as we could get to imitating that here in the UK…..

Luckily without the added drama. This dreamy houseboat has all the necessities for the perfect weekend away. We’re talking a private garden with decking for al fresco dining, no queuing for pubs here!

Thornton Castle Tower, Aberdeenshire

Because why would you not want to live in a castle for a few days? The castle dates from the 13th century and is full of original features but has been extensively improved for modern living. Which makes it an excellent spot for a staycation. We also noticed they have chickens and ducks in the garden – there may well be fresh eggs for breakfast! IRL Disney Princesses rejoice!

AirShip 002, Drimnin Highlands

You read that right: AirShip 002 is yours for the sleepin’.

It’s an insulated aluminum pod with all the standard amenities with the addition of a huge fishbowl type view of the Scottish coastline.

What’s that saying in space? No one can hear you snooze??
