Airbnb is offering a few lucky ogre-lovers the chance to spend the night in Shrek's swamp this Halloween
· Oct 1, 2023 · NottheBee.com

This October, Shrek lovers everywhere will be vying for a chance to stay in the swamp home of the world's most famous ogre.

The swamp, which is located in the Scottish Highlands, will be available for a two-night stay for up to three guests from October 27-29. Potential guests can request to book the swamp paradise beginning on October 13 at 6 p.m. BST

The Airbnb description of the unique stay, really sells the experience, saying,

A former refuge for fairytale creatures, Shrek's Swamp brings a whole new meaning to the term ‘treehouse.' With its clever use of forestry, charmingly rustic interiors and iconic outhouse, the swamp is certain to offer an experience unlike any other.

For £0 a night - a nod to the priceless refuge Shrek's Swamp has provided fairytale creatures of all kinds - ‘brogres' will be able to request to book an exclusive two-night swamp stay* for up to three guests October 27-29.

During their stay in this spectacularly secluded swamp-scape, guests can:

  • Relax in the ambiance of "earwax candlelight"
  • Kick their feet up with a parfait (everybody likes a parfait!)
  • Swap stories around the fire until late in the night
  • Enjoy a stack of freshly made waffles in the morning
  • And of course, enjoy the ultimate privacy of Shrek's trusted outhouse (you know the one)

And in case you thought this was some sort of luxury vacation, be warned, the outhouse is an actual outhouse, so you can really get the full ogre experience.

The description also boasts that Donkey will be there, personally making the waffles in the morning, which would honestly creep me out, so I guess that's where the whole Halloween thing comes into play.

The cost of booking the Airbnb is $0, but travel to and from Scotland will be at the expense of the traveler.

But for a free two-night stay in a famous cartoon character's swamp home? That's still a pretty good deal.
