When it comes to outdoor getaways you've no doubt heard of sleeping in a hammock next to beach or dozing under the stars in the mountains.
Thanks to the Quina da Pachecha estate in Portugal there's now an outdoors holiday we can get on board with - sleeping inside a giant wine barrel after a full day of wine tasting!
Each 30-metre suite is a giant replica of of the barrels used in the 280-year-old estate, made from pine wood and designed by property owners Paulo Pereira and Maria do Céu Gonçalves.
The unique hotel rooms will get you up close and personal with the vineyard, it's as simple as a walk out of your barrel's door and into the grounds.
Each barrel is a wine lover's dream - they feature high-end amenities like a private bathroom with modern fixtures, a walk-in shower, a large round bed and skylight, a private terrace, Wi-Fi and air conditioning.
The vineyard’s bottles are stored in a nearby 18th century house, with red, white and rosé, as well as port available - so you won't struggle to find your new favourite glass of the good stuff.
Flights from Edinburgh to their nearest airport, Porto, are as cheap as £50 in September (meaning you'll still have time for the Edinburgh Festival Fringe!).
