8. The Lighthouse Cabin, Norway
Settled on a wind-beaten islet in Norway’s far west, the Skalmen Lighthouse Cabin is the ultimate retreat for solitude seekers. Once home to a 1907 lighthouse keeper and now unreachable for months due to protected birdlife, it takes ferries and a boat to even glimpse it.
Recently snapped up in a bidding war, this lonely outpost whispers old sea tales, Arctic winds; and a dream of restoration.
