Travel Tips: Alternative Holiday Accommodation

Aug. 7, 2009 - PRLog -- All over Britain the summer holidays are right on our door step. For quick solutions of how to spend them, there is still an attractive choice of extraordinary accommodation available. It's not only children who dream of one day sleeping in a tree-house or windmill, of sailing and living in a luxurious houseboat or of staying in a castle.

Holiday makers will feel close to nature in a windmill on the North Sea in one of Europe's most popular destinations for renting a holiday home: Germany. This windmill, in a village called Dornumersiel, is decorated in the traditional country style. Although it is no longer in operation, it creates a particularly comfortable and novel living experience from £494/week for up to six people (so only £11 per person per day with maximum occupancy). Young couples in love could retreat to the tower room, built as an extra for the 2009 season (Rental Number: 153382).

A great deal of fun can be had by the whole family in a windmill in Ebeltoft, one of Denmark's oldest and prettiest towns, situated on the East coast. Guests can rent the windmill from £349/week for up to six people: a holiday home with soul, history and atmosphere as well as a fantastic 360º panoramic view over the town, the sea and the countryside. Especially recommended excursions are the Ebeltoft zoo and safari park, the Djurs Sommerland or the Kattegatcenter with its underwater-animal world (Rental Number: 115387).

New for 2009, in the Danish port city Hvide Sande, in West Jutland, travellers can enjoy an unforgettable luxury holiday in a moving houseboat. The Ringköbing Fjord and its bird sanctuary, which protects numerous different species, offers a wonderful setting for the trip. A week long stay aboard the houseboat is available in August from £1741.93 for up to six people (Rental Number 360682). An original stay on the water in Amsterdam costs from £706/week  (Rental Number 231272)

Fans of the USA can live the ultimate american lifestyle in the Netherlands: in the province of Overijssel there is a reproduction american log cabin, true to the original otherwise only found in guest ranches in America. Closeby, there are many opportunities for active holidaymakers to go hiking and cycling in one of the most spectacular nature reserves in Europe, Engbertsdijkvenen. Price: From £257/week for two people (Rental Number: 206863).
