UK holidays: The quirkiest place ‘to escape from the world’ named – ‘magical’

A UK holiday can be as exciting as an overseas trip. To make the most of some of the most popular staycation destinations, Britons could decide to stay in some quirky accommodations.

Another said: “This is the place we go to escape from the world, we have already booked for next year and cannot wait, it is most definitely our Happy Place.”

Cantick Head Lighthouse on Orkney Islands came second.

With a sauna and ocean views, the cottage used to be the home of the lighthouse keeper.

Reviewers loved the area.

DON’T MISS

One said: “Amazing walks from the doorstep out along the cliff top with absolutely no noise other than the sea and the birds.

“We missed the orcas, although they were around but saw seals loads of sea birds and a dolphin and minke whale which made up for the no show of the orcas.”

Another said: “A spotless cottage in a fabulous location with everything you need including a very comfortable bed, a hot tub and a sauna which face out to sea with incredible views.

“Clifftop walks from the doorstep with an abundance of wildlife.”
