The bleak reality of four whole cold dark months between now and the next bank holiday have us reaching for our laptops to research our next vacation pronto.

But where to go and what accommodation to book?

Helpfully, Airbnb has the ultimate dream holiday short stays list ready to view for travel inspiration.

Users have the option to create a 'wish list' of properties they want to stay in as they trawl the site for their next trip.

The holiday home rental site has released a list of the most wish-listed homes by UK travellers.

With only two of the top homes located here in the UK, it seems Brits are keen to escape to faraway lands and love an unusual property to help make their trip unique.

From a quirky converted windmill to a home carved into the side of a cliff, no longer will a bog-standard holiday apartment do.

The most popular Airbnbs

Boasting breathtaking views over the lake, this apartment based in the Italian village of Riva, Lombardy takes top spot to help Brits satisfy their wanderlust.

This romantic cabana in the Andean mountains of Colombia makes the top ten.

It's no wonder when use of a pool, tennis court, bowling alley and park is included in the price.

Also making the top ten is a romantic cabana in the Andean mountains of Colombia. Made from bamboo, it's surrounded by lush rainforest on a small organic farm.

Visitors can be at one with nature, thanks to an outdoor shower in the garden.

Santorni shows no sign of losing popularity as the number one island in Greece to visit.

British tourists have fallen in love with this unique cave house carved into the caldera cliff. Originally used as a wine cellar, it offers a private veranda with views of the volcano, caldera cliff and Thirassia Island.

Finally, a private riad in the heart of the Medina in Marrakesh makes the top five. With three bedrooms, it's the perfect base for a group weekend away exploring somewhere new.
