On the enchanting headland of Dungeness in Kent, about 130 kilometers from London, lies the Coastguard Lookout: the turret in the Romney Marsh landscape looks out over the roaring expanse of the Atlantic toward France. Its great coastal location is due to its past as a lookout tower for the coast guard. Today, it's a romantic modern retreat with open spaces and balconies.

An Airbnb with history: if you've ever been to the Peloponnese, you might be familiar with the iconic stone fortresses that can be found scattered throughout Mani. One of these fortresses is this restored tower house in Stavri. Built in 1790, the building can accommodate up to ten people. Greek idleness is the order of the day here: sipping wine on the terrace and letting your eyes wander over the olive groves into the valley. Or simply lounge in the traditionally furnished living room.
