A TINY island in the UK is home to holiday lodges were inspired by safari camps abroad.
WildLuing on the Scottish island of Luing was created by Jack and his wife Emily after they were inspired while living in Kenya.

WildLuing has eight self-catered glamping suites, called WildSuites, that overlook Torsa Bay where you can regularly spot seals and otters.
Something Jack and Emily said they liked about the Kenya lodges was that groups would gather for meals in a large communal space, then go back to their cabins.
Each pod is custom built and there are some where you can bring along a furry friend too.
And inside each of the lodges is a super king bed, which can be split into doubles if necessary, as well as a shower – and some even have a roll top bath.
Cleverly, all of the cabins are positioned differently so no matter which you stay in, you will get views of the bay.
Prices for the cabins start from £195 per night and each sleeps two.
Unlike most other campsites, there’s no shops or pubs, it’s all about getting back to nature.
As a result, on-site is a communal lounge and dining room.
And it’s a hit with visitors having been described as ‘bucket list material.’
The biggest place on-site is The Observatory which hosts up to 20 guests.

It has views over Torsa Bay and is completely open-plan with a kitchen, pantry, dining area and cosy living room.
You can’t actually stay overnight but it can be hired out to use for yoga retreats, cooking school, dining events, wild swimming groups, and wedding receptions, according to the website.
Around the bay is various types of wildlife, and from the private deck you’ll be able to spot otters as well as grey and common seals.
For the lucky ones, you might even see dolphins.
The Isle of Luing is one of the Slate Islands in the west of Argyll in Scotland and has a population of just 200 people.
WildLuing launched three years ago, and has received lots of positive reviews from visitors.
One wrote on Tripadvisor: “Wowsers. If you haven’t been, then this should be bucket-list material.”
Another added: “Wild Luing was simply sensational on all fronts.”
To get to the Isle of Luing, you’ll need to get a ferry from North Cuan.
Here’s the UK’s highest campsite has cosy camping pods and views of the country’s tallest mountain.
And more campsites in the UK near water to with sea views and luxury cabins.
