Looking for a night away on the coast this week. I know this is a tight year for finding accommodation, but according to some bellend this constitutes a one bed apartment.

It's an F-ing shed!

At the end of a trying day, it tipped me over the edge! 😱😢🤣

Tbh Pontin, s would be be more luxurious....

This passes for Glamping these days? Bollocks it does!

Reminds me of that hut they lived in in the first series of Auf weidersen Pet, but their hut was better equipped.

I have remembered I have stayed in pretty much that very hut but on an idyllic Malaysian island with an idyllic beach right outside and it was decades ago and I was v young. I doubt the setting of op’s photo is similar Grin

It's a bit Prisoner: Cell Block H

There could be a good ‘the great escape’ reenactment staged there. Grin

Compact and bijou. They’d have been rejects in the 1960’s.

I doubt that. The one here is notoriously appalling!

Glamping isn't glamping unless it's a tent so they're wrong straight away!

Pods, huts, whatever else... that's just staying overnight somewhere with non-brick walls.

It looks like quite a nice shed though...!

£56?????!!!! Fuck me.

The whole “stick a shipping container beside the slurry store at the back of the cow shed and call it glamping” thing has got to end soon, surely??

MoiraNotRuby · 09/08/2021 22:30

Looks quite pretty to me! Depends on the setting, if it looks out onto nature I'd like to stay there. If its on a roundabout or retail park, not so much...

🤣 I was thinking of the staff chalets in Hi De Hi!

'Glamping' is now being used for anything that's not a solid brick building. Like the way all student accommodation is now 'luxury' accommodation.

alltheemptyfields · 09/08/2021 22:53

so a standard playhouse from a random playground with 2 beds in it?

Maybe the website doesn't give them "shed" as an option.

x2boys · 09/08/2021 22:58

Ha, ha yes the hi de hi staff chalets too @skiptheheartsandflowers 🤣🤣

Whammyyammy · 09/08/2021 22:59

So, the definition of glamping is sleeping in a b&q shed now, not a tent?
So glad I just book hotels or villas
