The 85 Best Airbnbs and Vacation Rentals in the World, According to Super-Travelers

"When Simon and Stef, the Superhosts behind Kilmartin Castle in Argyll & Bute, traveled around Scotland as tourists, they were disappointed not to find a castle stay that 'felt like a castle' both inside and out. After purchasing one that 'dodged the Victorian home improvement brigade,' they quit their jobs and started a new chapter as innkeepers. Travel and hospitality expert Molly Egan describes the grounds of the recently restored property as 'tranquil and dreamy'—and that’s exactly what the hosts were going for in hiring an award-winning Chelsea Flower Show garden designer to landscape the swimming pool, outdoor kitchen, orchard, and sunken firepit. The interior of the five-bedroom, five-bath castle, meanwhile, features antique furniture and original artworks, plus modern amenities such as roll-top copper baths, an HD projector and retractable movie screen, and blazing-fast fiber-optic internet." - Ashlea Halpern
