London break - something different

hi,

booked some train tickets for a surprise for my wife for London. Went to London in may and had a great time.

We are going on Saturday 27/09/14 for 3 days, and looking for something a bit different to stay rather than the run of the mill hotels.

Been on the airbnb website, but was looking for a boat house rental / gypsy caravan / apartment with roof terrace etc (Not too far from London central)

If anyone can give me some leads this would be great.

thanks

andrew.

    Airbnb has a yurt in Highgate, if that's unusual enough? Can't post links but a google search for "Yurt London" should find it.
  • Thanks to all - have now booked a summer house in london via AIRBNB.

    thanks again,

    Andrew
