If it’s jaw-dropping views you’re after, you can’t go wrong with your very own 18th century lighthouse – the Wicklow Head Lighthouse on Wicklow’s Dunbur Head to be exact, which looks out onto the Irish Sea. A stay in the stylish two-bedroom lighthouse, which has safeguarded the scenic Wicklow coastline since 1781, is the ultimate novelty. A 109-step climb takes you through six floors to the kitchen at the top, where you’ll have a stunning view of the area’s spectacular scenery. The Wicklow Head Lighthouse sleeps four (and a dog!) and prices start from €596 for a weekend.
