The traditional British pub holds a certain charm if you’re an American. While pubs are pubs in the UK, Americans tend to look at them as places of whimsy.
So, if you’ve ever gotten the urge to visit one why not do one better and actually stay in one? Airbnb has just listed a 500-year-old pub as a place where you can live for a week!
The 16th-century village pub is located in Horncastle, Lincolnshire, and it is called the White Hart Inn. You can book it for £667 per night – the rough equivalent of $900.
It has six bedrooms and seven bathrooms, meaning you can comfortably fit up to 14 guests in the space. The White Hart Inn comes with many of its original features like the authentic bar, stools, tables, and other furnishings.
It also has an exclusive game room and a beer garden, as well as a dining room that comes with a wood-burning stove. But perhaps the biggest draw is that you get unlimited access to the bar! Granted, if you want certain beers or lagers stocked while you stay, you just need to place an order in advance so that the booze will be hooked up to the pumps so you can enjoy pulling your own pint!
The owner of the Airbnb rental, Richard Stockdale, wrote in the listing, “There’s plenty to do, from pulling pints at your own bar, playing pool against your friends, or hosting a meal in this charming historical inn–or explore the beautiful surrounding countryside.”
At the moment, the White Hart Inn is doing well on Airbnb with 30 reviews and a 4.9 rating out of 5.
One of the comments from Airbnb reads, “Stayed here as a group to celebrate turning 40. Highly recommend—it’s a unique venue with a working bar, pool table, table tennis, sound system and amazing log fires.”
Another guest left the comment, “I would 100 percent recommend booking this place, we were a party of 12 young adults and had a fantastic time. The pictures don’t do the pub justice, each individual main room of the pub was big enough to accommodate our entire party of 12. The bedrooms were all very nice/clean and had their own en-suites.”
