Do you ever look at a place and think to yourself: “I would love to stay there!”

Our Instagram-driven travel culture and ability to actually find and stay in unique privately owned homes opened doors to a lot of locations and spaces you may not have been able to easily access before. I find that in most instances you look for a place to stay based on a destination but some of these incredible homes deserve to be a trip on their own. Here’s a list of the most interesting unique homes in unique locations from AirBNB I found this month.

Unique and Secluded AirShip with Breathtaking Highland Views

6 unique AirBNB homes in unique locations: a metal glass home with a unique shape

Location: Tobermory, Scotland, United Kingdom

Space: AirShip is an insulated aluminum pod, located on four acres of land, with views of the Sound of Mull through its dragonfly windows. The home is quite small, enough for 2 guests who can share 1 bedroom and a bath. The nearby town was built as a fishing port in the late 18th century and today acts as the main town of Isle of Mull, an island just off the coast of Scotland, the second-largest island of the Inner Hebrides.
