Lighthouse holiday rentals in Western Europe

Read the good reviews, it says it all - and it's actually true: the tower is exceptional and something for people who are looking for something special. The furnishings are tasteful and well adapted to the tower. It is a wonderful old building where some paint trickles from the wall - this happens at a historic building and belongs to its very own, great character. We really enjoyed it there, especially the view from the tower platform. Where else you can see the sun rising in the sea from the house - and sink into the sea again. She does this especially nicely with a glass of Vermentino frizzante. Raise the glass on this great tower!

Wonderful place for a family of three. Right next to the beach (literally 2min) and lovely shared gardens to relax in. We felt so fortunate for the location with wonderful views, sunsets and sea and a lovely breeze kept us cool in the night. The place is very simple with minimal amenities and kitchen equipment but we didn’t need much more for our stay even though we cooked simple meals often at the apartment. Bed linen and towels are not included in the fee which is quite unusual but the host arranged for some be hired at an extra fee. We loved our stay on the island and hope to come back!

We can’t speak highly enough about this spot! It was honestly one of the best and most unique places we’ve ever stayed. Jeremy, Catherine‘s husband welcomed us upon check in and gave us the lay of the land and plenty of recommendations. He was so lovely and so helpful. The place was even more beautiful than the picture showed. 20 out of 10 and would absolutely stay here again.

unique spot with peacful and natural vibes, well equipped place.

Stay in and next to a lighthouse is quite a unique experience. We enjoyed a lot having Isla Pancha just for us, and also being at 30’ by foot from the center were we could taste the local cuisine. I totally recommend it!

Our stay at the Auberge du Lac was excellent. The beds were comfortable and the showers hot. The dinner and breakfast were both generous and tasty. while the hotel is in the middle of town, the rooms were quiet. I would happily return.

We loved staying at this place! The windmill made us feel like we were living in a fairytale. The property is remarkable in its beauty and creative design, combining stone, wood, and plenty of charm. There is an outside kitchen with a table, an outdoor seating area near the other kitchen, a garden, and an outdoor shower with a millstone for the floor. What a joy it is to take a cool shower as you feel the breeze while hearing the birds and the little lizards that live within the crevices of the stone wall come and go. Take out the hammocks at night to enjoy the stars! Sleeping in the very top bedroom is a unique experience. However, the stairs are very steep, and you should exercise caution (not recommended for sleepwalkers!) Marifer, Jesús, and Ana Griselda

We had such a wonderful stay at the Selkirk/Salmon River Lighthouse! We came to celebrate my mother’s 70th birthday and it was even more awesome than we had imagined it’d be. Christian was a great host, super friendly and helpful, communicative and flexible. He was so accommodating with our schedule and did a great job of checking in with us to see if we needed anything throughout our stay. We found the lighthouse clean and cozy and perfect for our needs, and loved the history and essence of the whole place. Christian delighted us with a trip to the birdcage and top of the light which really capped the whole experience. Swimming in Lake Ontario and exploring the beach was a true highlight for us. Kayaking Salmon River was a beautiful and peaceful way to start one of our mornings. (And Annie’s Diner in town serves great biscuits and gravy). Such a bucket list kind of trip, and a real true gem of a place.

⸻ You quickly feel comfortable. The panoramic view is breathtaking, almost 360°, a real pleasure! Be careful, you have to climb the 4 floors so a little breath required, but it was predictable. The surroundings are splendid, typically Breton, and the locals are very welcoming. A nice break!”

Staying at Steven and John's place was a great experience for my family, a mix of adults and teenagers. Beautiful and peaceful surroundings, secluded and private but close enough to town and all the civilized comforts you need. House was beautiful, well appointed and decorated. So many thoughtful touches to make our stay easy. Well-equipped kitchen (we cooked, and it wasn't missing anything), "honesty bar" for when we forgot drink mixers, games and toys for the teens, operating grill, fireplaces inside and out. Comfy beds and very versatile sleeping options. And we can't say enough about how friendly and responsive and accommodating our hosts were. Highly recommended, and we hope to be back someday.

Awesome place, and a very nice luxury house that made our stay and experience just much better! You also have a feeling like you’re on your own private beach plus you can enjoy the jacuzzi with a view to the sea and sunset. Definitely recommend if you are looking for relaxing time and a real rest (vacation). The island is beautiful and lots to see there. You can take a cruise to a different island, visit different beaches on Brac and enjoy great local food. Croatians are very polite and friendly people so if you need help with anything you can count on that. The hosts were great! When we arrived, they walked us through everything and left a gift for us (snacks, drinks, fruit, etc.). The house has everything you need and more including the grill, kayak, bikes, fishing rods. We absolutely loved it here and plan on coming back :)

The place is lovely, very calm and quiet and beautiful views. It's a very clean and well kept place. A lot of nature and a escape from reality. I hope we can go back there as it is completely worth it.

A stay in a lighthouse is exciting by default. But a stay at The Lighthouse Winterton-on-Sea is a true experience! We enjoyed the renovated and excellently kept historical building, the views from the top level, the warmth of the decoration (despite the windy environment) and the great walks in the surrounding area, the dunes, the seals, the doll like villages. Colleen, the caretaker, was always a message away supporting us in any requirements. We would definitely return :) Thanasis & Christina Athens, Greece

The water tower definitely contributed to making it an unforgettable holiday for us. It is equipped with everything you need or could need. Loving furnishing and decorative details help to make you feel right at home. Communication was always very prompt and a great deal of appreciation was noticeable. We greatly appreciated the personal and very warm welcome. And we didn't miss anything. The bins were even placed on the street and the surroundings were maintained, so we only had to enjoy and not worry about anything.

we were blown away with the accomodation and location, perfectly located on the coast path with amazing views and fantastic walking. we had a dog with us and it was perfect, secure accomodation and yard and fantastic walking

Beautiful home in a perfect surrounding. We loved everything about this home. Jan gave us great instructions and we were able to walk right in and relax. It was super clean! We prepared meals and had everything we needed in the kitchen. We took Jan’s restaurant recommendation at the Fitz and could not have been happier. Thank you for the perfect weekend in the U.P.

Ugelong stay, but not a second too far. The listed apartment was absolutely perfect in all respects. The North Sea and the surrounding Hanstholm made it an unforgettable experience.

Really one of the most magical spots I’ve ever stayed. And our hosts were incredibly thoughtful—they even brought us fresh tuna one day. It’s a little rustic, and your car may need some clearance underneath to get there, because the last stretch of road is a little rough. But that’s part of what makes it so special. I would definitely go back.

We had a great stay. The house and property were as advertised.

Kristy's place was perfect! She has thought of every little detail and the story behind the lighthouse is wonderful. Go click the reserve button now, find your spot by the sea and let the tides carry your earthly stress away!

Quiet and comfortable place. I would definitely come back.

This is not a typical Airbnb stay ! So much more. The house was immaculately clean, spacious, and thoughtfully set up with everything we could need. The kitchen was fully equipped, and every room had cozy, comfortable spots that made us want to stay indoors and unwind. But what really sets this place apart is the outdoor space. The spacious yard offers a peaceful retreat with a beautiful peek at the river. There’s even a barbecue grill outside, perfect for enjoying the open air and making the most perfect week-end meals. Nearby shopping spots made it easy to grab all the groceries and essentials we needed for the weekend. This was the ideal location for a rejuvenating weekend escape, and we’re already looking forward to coming back. Highly recommended!

We stayed Derby weekend and this place is the perfect hidden gem for 4-6 people. It’s far enough away from the hustle and bustle of the weekend, but close enough to attend the derby, restaurants, etc. just across the river. The property is literally right on the Ohio River with very nice views, boasts 3 bedrooms and 2 baths and is roomy with nice outdoor spaces!! The host, Brad, is extremely friendly and responsive and wants to ensure their guests have a great experience end to end. I would totally recommend the property for folks looking for a quick get away or the derby!!!! Excellent value for money!!

Amazing lighthouse! Saw Minke whales and dolphins multiple times throughout our stay right outside our door! Absolutely beautiful!
