UK’s first ‘glamping horsebox’ in Inverness listed on Airbnb for just £30 a night has its own composting loo and pine forest
Owner Stacie MacDonald says "you'll love it if you're more Girl Grylls than high heels"
BRITAIN'S first "glamping horsebox" is now available to rent on Airbnb... for just £30 a night.
Designed using a vintage horsebox, wooden pallets and corrugated iron, the quirky glamping option even has its own "composting toilet".
Named the "Prancing Pony Wild Glamping Pod" and located in Bonar Bridge, an hour north of Inverness in Scotland, the home-from-home even boasts a built in shower and kitchen sink.
And guests are welcome to enjoy its beautiful "garden" - four acres of stunning Caledonian Pine forest.
Owner Stacie MacDonald says on the website "you'll love it if you're more Girl Grylls than high heels" and if you're a guy looking to be a "Wild Man of the Woods".

Holidaymakers should prepare themselves for a rustic experience however.
They will be drinking water in a portable tank and a shower that is heated using solar panels with a rain capture system.
It sports a fold out futon bed which sleeps two people.
The description reads: "If you need to nip to the loo in the night you can use the small jockey door to avoid midges and rain (just don't bang your head - it is tiny!)."
A few modern touches remain however, including a vital USB port powered by the solar panels which can help charge mobile phones.
And the glamping pod appears to be a hit, with five star reviews on the Airbnb website with guests commenting on the "cheap, cheerful, and quirky" horsebox.
Mhairi, who stayed there in October said: "The accommodation was lovely, and the pictures don't do it justice!
"It's cheap, cheerful, and quirky, and set in beautiful surroundings with lots of walking and mountain biking trails just on the doorstep (take a map!) so as long as folk manage their expectations as to what they're booking they will have an amazing time."
Chiara, who also stayed in October said: "Amazing place, perfect for the warm season, we came in October and it's a little bit cold! Stacie is a wonderful person and you'll love this particular experience!"
