Hogwarts-themed AirBnB in Wexford is a must for Harry Potter fans

Ellen Fitzpatrick

Brb, booking this asap.

We love a good staycation, now more than ever and for those of us who have spent the last year and a half binging every Harry Potter film ever, you’re going to love this one.

Luckily for any Potterheads out there, you can now stay at a Harry Potter-themed Airbnb in Wexford.

Spellcast Cottage in Enniscorthy is all things magical, with the world of wizardry covering the entire home.

You’ll be able to sleep under the stars like Harry himself and by the end of your trip, your phone is bound to be overloaded with pictures of this spot.

Complete with a Platform 9 and 3/4 feature in the garden and even a statue of Hedwig guiding you up the stairs, it’s one place any Potterhead needs to visit.

With dozens of nods to one of our favourite film and book franchises, there are crazy amounts of attention to detail in the Airbnb that are just to die for.

The sleeping area consists of four built-in single beds, with guests getting to decide which Hogwarts house covers they want to sleep with, so just hope you’re not with another of your own house.

But if you really want to get into the depths of it, there’s even a recreation of Harry Potter’s cupboard under the stairs.

In there you’ll find more Hogwarts bedspreads along with pictures of Harry, Hermione and Ron hanging on the wall.

And there’s obviously a massive surprise because it wouldn’t be a Harry Potter-themed stay if it didn’t, with a secret door that leads to a seating area to practice all of your spells.

Those who have already have managed to book a stay here can’t stop raving about the place, saying they “highly recommend” and the cottage is “beautiful.”

“We had a fantastic stay at Spellcast Cottage. Far exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend!” one said while another added: “The cottage is just so beautiful and we loved our stay, spotless clean and it was a lovely surprise with the muffins. We will definitely be back again and I’ve recommended to all our family.”
