Bed in bath outrage

A Glasgow flat hunter was left horrified when a landlord offered him a £450-a-month bathroom to sleep in.

Danny Andrews replied to an advert for a “small but cosy living space” on gay-friendly accommodation website Pride Flatmates.

The advert admitted the two metre by two metre room was “unconventional” and “needing some TLC” but didn’t state it was actually a bathroom and the tenant would be expected to sleep in the bath.

Andrews, 32, took to Twitter to express his disbelief, Tweeting: “A nutter tried to rent me a bathroom in Glasgow for £450 a month. He even suggested I sleep in the bath!”

Pictures of the bed-in-bath can be seen on the Daily Express website.

A statement on Pride Flatmates, which is 100% free to users, said: “We do our best to make sure that they are genuine but we will explore other options to see if it is possible for us to make improvements to this process.

“We would like to take this opportunity to apologise for any inconvenience that the recent issue has caused and we will do our very best to make further improvements to the website.”
