A Peaceful Retreat in the Scottish Highlands
Step into the magical world of Shrek by booking a stay at the iconic “Shrek’s Swamp” on Airbnb. Nestled in the serene Scottish Highlands, this charming recreation of Shrek’s home offers an immersive experience.
Limited Availability for a Unique Weekend Getaway
“Shrek’s Swamp” is available for a limited time, exclusively for the weekend of October 27-29 this year. Booking slots open on October 13 at 6 PM BST, and eager guests must act quickly. Please note that this is not a contest; guests are required to cover their travel expenses to Scotland and the cost of their stay. While the exact rates are not listed on the Airbnb page, it promises an enchanting experience.
Natural Beauty Surrounding the Swamp House
This secluded dwelling is enveloped by picturesque trails and idyllic picnic spots, surrounded by dense coniferous forests that minimize light pollution. As a result, you can stargaze and marvel at the clear night sky.
An Authentic Recreation of Shrek’s Home
Inside the swamp house, you’ll find an authentic recreation of Shrek’s abode as seen in the films. From the dirt floor to the wooden bed and a dinner table set with an earwax candle reminiscent of the movie, every detail immerses you in Shrek’s world. Outside, “Beware Ogre” and “Stay Out” signs add to the film’s charm.
Modern Comforts Nearby
While Shrek used an outhouse in the movies, guests at this swamp house will find modern amenities like a toilet, sink, and shower at an off-site location just 20 meters away from the swamp.
An Exclusive Property with a Charitable Twist
Owned by Ardverikie Estate, this unique property holds the rights to Shrek and Donkey characters, having paid Universal Studios for their usage. As part of this special promotion, Airbnb will make a one-time donation to Scotland’s HopScotch Children’s Charity.
The Future of Shrek
For fans of the Shrek series, there’s hope for a reunion as movie boss Chris Meledandri has expressed his desire for the original cast, including Mike Meyers (Shrek), Eddie Murphy (Donkey), and Cameron Diaz (Fiona), to return for Shrek 5. Talks are in the early stages, and while enthusiasm is high, no official deals have been signed yet.
