New to Host Unusual: Twenty Refreshingly Different UK Boltholes

20 March 2020

Firstly, we wish all our loyal Host Unusual followers lots of positive energy and, of course, good health during the current Covid-19 situation we face.
Many of us will not have seen or experienced before the current restrictions on overseas travel, and, for those who have been forced to postpone their planned holidays abroad this summer, we thought we may be able to offer some inspiration on new and exciting UK accommodation recently added to Host Unusual. 

Whether it’s for a last minute staycation or planning ahead for 2021, we have everything from beachfront havens to unique glamping retreats, eco-luxe lodges and huts, converted railway carriages, sophisticated barns for group gatherings and plenty more besides.
