You can now stay in a stunning wooden lodge in the middle of a lion enclosure

This looks absolutely incredible.

Have a couple of grand to spare? While we’re going to say straight-off that this is an extremely expensive night away; it does look insanely beautiful.

A new luxury accommodation spot has opened in Port Lympne Hotel & Reserve in Kent in the UK called Lion Lodge – and as you can imagine from the name, the lodge is neatly tucked into a lion enclosure.

The immersive experience means you can literally cook, sleep and eat with lions (they will be behind glass, obvs) and it looks breathtaking.

The two lodges, named Kikuyu and Jibana, offer guests an incredible opportunity to find themselves living beside Adras, Oudrika and their three adorable cubs.

The lodges are designed to sleep four, have wet rooms with monsoon showers, outdoor baths, spiral staircases, kitchens, bars and beautiful living areas.

Of course, they are mighty expensive to stay in and will cost you anywhere upwards of €2000 a night. Included in the price is breakfast and a tour of Port Lympne park.

There are options to stay near bears, giraffes, wolves and rhinos too . There really is a whole world to explore at the park! For pictures of the lodge and more information, visit here.
