Are you or your child a big fan of Winnie the Pooh?
Well then we have the perfect place for you to take yourself or your family on a stunning staycation.
As part of Disney’s 95th Anniversary celebration of the loveable children’s character, a Winnie the Pooh-inspired house in the Hundred Acre Wood is available to rent on Airbnb.
The Bearbnb is based in Ashdown Forest, which was the inspiration for A.A. Milne's Hundred Acre Wood.
It sleeps up to four guests at a time, giving Winnie the Pooh fans the opportunity to immerse themselves in the iconic world of Pooh and Friends.
The house is built with exposed tree branches wrapped around the doorway with "Mr. Sanders" inscribed above.
If guests take a peek inside the kitchen cupboards, they’ll also find shelves stocked full of "hunny" pots.
Alongside the charming references to the original Pooh tales, the house is fully kitted out for guests to enjoy a relaxing family stay, including a double bed on the ground floor, and a mezzanine area with two comfortable single beds.

The lounge space comes fully equipped with a cosy seating and dining area for guests to appreciate a “smackerel” or two.
During each stay, guests will be taken on a guided tour through the original Hundred Acre Wood, play Poohsticks on the iconic Poohsticks Bridge and enjoy locally sourced hunny-inspired meals.
Hosting the Airbnb stay is Disney-appointed Winnie the Pooh illustrator, Kim Raymond, who curated the house and has been drawing the iconic bear for over 30 years.
Kim brought Pooh’s house to life taking inspiration from the original decorations of E.H. Shepard.
She will host two separate one night stays on the 24 and 25 September for just £95 per night bookable only on Airbnb.
Talking about the house, she said: "I have been illustrating Winnie the Pooh for thirty years and I continue to be inspired by the classic decorations of E.H. Shepard and the more recent Disney stories.
"The ‘Bearbnb’ is a unique experience that brings the charm of Pooh to life for fans, whilst honouring the original adventures that have been so important to many people for 95 years."
Catherine Powell, Airbnb Global Head of Hosting added: “Winnie the Pooh is a childhood jewel beloved by families the world over.
"This year, the original books celebrate their 95th anniversary. What better way to commemorate A.A. Milne’s classic work than with these two once-in-a-lifetime stays in the original Hundred Acre Wood. A perfect place to do nothing.
As Pooh said, "'Doing ‘Nothing’ often leads to the very best Something'."
A very high level of interest is anticipated though so you best be quick!
Available booking dates will go live at 2pm BST on Monday 20 September.
