As the last week has proven, when it snows, the world goes a little bit bonkers! From road closures and businesses failing to open their doors, to the bread-buying frenzy that us Brits get ourselves into; it seems it’s much more fun being a child when it snows. However, Airbnb<\/a>, one of the biggest holiday rental firms<\/a> in the world, capiatlised on the bad weather. Whilst holidays were well and truly pencilled out of the diary this week, an Airbnb<\/a> advert made igloo rentals a thing!<\/p>\n

The advert was posted by a man from Scotland. Advertised as being ‘somewhere in Kilmacolm, Renfrewshire’, igloo hire was priced at \u00a340 a night; understandably a much cheaper option than your average insulated; warm hotel.<\/p>\n

As a bit of a joke; the advert was shared across various social media platforms and other online forums, with people rather fascinated by the idea of hiring such a ‘property’.<\/p>\n

Brazen host, Dan, explains:<\/p>\n

“Well if you get through the 5ft snow drifts on the road you will be met by a snow covered drive with a delightful snow cave built into it.”
\nDan adds:<\/p>\n

“Amenities in the local area are non existent, so best bring everything you need.<\/p>\n

“Parking is a mere hour walk from the property with spaces available anywhere you fancy leaving it.<\/p>\n

“With luck a local famer can bring you part of the way, but don’t count on it.”<\/p>\n

Listing Wi-Fi, breakfast and air conditioning as featured services; the ad certainly gave use a chuckle or two.<\/p>\n

Though it’s arguably a bit bizarre that someone would take the time to create this advert, when thinking of how boring being snowed in is; we begin to sympathise. That said, igloo hire is actually a sought-after hire service<\/a>; along with ice bar hire<\/a><\/a>, ice sculpture hire and much more!<\/p>\n

Let us know what you think about this innovative hire service<\/a>; would you spend the night in an igloo? Leave your comments with us.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
