Although this truly special Airbnb rental in Scotland looks like it might take off on you, it’s 100% grounded. Thematically blimpy, everything about the Airship002 looks custom-made. Roderick James Architects located their second AirShip on a four-acre site with untrammeled views of the home’s natural surroundings. It’s crafted primarily with aluminum and maximizes its small footprint with serious creature comforts. It houses two people but can be modified for four people thanks to its modular construction and can easily be dismantled and relocated. It’s even sustainable with its own rainwater collection system, photovoltaic panels for electricity, insulated construction, and wood-burning stove. Guests will certainly feel as if they’ve been transported to another time (and place) with this remarkable pod-style home, and Jules Verne would be proud.

Huckberry’s Essential Holiday Gift Guide
Unzip your coat and have some mulled wine on the house—you’ve arrived at your final gifting destination: The Holiday Gift Guide. It’s like your friendly neighborhood one-stop holiday shop, except instead of balsa wood ornaments, ours is packed with thoughtful gifts for everyone on your list. Future heirlooms, small-but-significant stocking stuffers, and gear for getting out there (or staying in)—are all right here. There’s no music playing in the background though, so you’ll just have to hum Bing Crosby while you click around instead.
