OK, so we’ve established vacation rentals are great, lets take this up a notch – a windmill!!! Not only does the Windmill Suffolk allow you to stay in a super neat windmill it comes with a luxurious finish and stunning views. To make it even better it’s adults only, so leave the kids with Granny and buy a bottle of bubbly. For a unique self-catering experience, this is one to look out for.

Windmill makeover
Built in 1891, this recently converted 18m-tall windmill is now a holiday home, offering guests unique accommodation and panoramic views of the surrounding Suffolk countryside. When the owners bought the property, it was in a sorry state of repair. It had been used as a store when the sails stopped turning in 1900 and then later left derelict. The project has given the building a modern twist, with a zinc clad pod topping the architectural landmark.
