What you think its look like hotel ? - but with a major difference. Instead of booking in guests in human form, Cornwall's newest hotel only takes chickens. It is big difference – instead of people, it offers accommodations for chicken. The aptly-named Chicken Hotel recently opened for business at Boskenwyn, Helston. The venture was set up to give chicken owners a place to check-in their birds while away from home.
David Roberts, a maths teacher who keeps his own chickens as a hobby, runs the hotel. He said: With more people looking to escape the rat race and move out in the country with a little bit of land, keeping chickens is becoming more and more popular.
I know it sounds like a joke, but this place is for real, and apparently it’s also very successful.
Each coop in the holds up to eight chicken and the current offer includes buffet breakfast, lunch and dinner of local produce, served in open-air. Guests are allowed to roam around the hotel grounds all day, before being gathered to roost at night. According to Mr. Roberts, the hotel was fully booked over Christmas time, and he hopes half term and Easter will be just as successful.
