Lewis Moody invites rugby fans to make themselves at home as they descend on the UK this September
London: English rugby legend Lewis Moody is inviting rugby fans from all over the world to make themselves at home this September as he lists his family home on home-sharing website Airbnb.
Combining the top class hospitality that Brits are renowned for with a rugby heritage that is second to none, Moody and Airbnb are set to give visitors from around the world the most authentic experience possible as the world’s biggest celebration of rugby kicks off throughout the UK this September.
Guest at chez Moody will be able to ‘live like a legend’ for up to one week at his beautiful home in the picture-perfect Wiltshire town of Bradford-on-Avon. The property is a rugby fan’s dream, complete with a huge array of rugby memorabilia from signed rugby balls, to a signed England 2003 Rugby World Cup winning shirt and a Lions jacket. It also boasts a huge garden complete with rugby posts.
The extremely unique listing opportunity is equidistant between London and Wales, two major destinations for any rugby fan this September and October. It’s also just 20 minutes from the historic city of Bath, home to Lewis’ former team Bath Rugby.
When guests are not taking in a game, Lewis will be encouraging his guests to live like a local and to explore the picturesque market town and former Iron Age settlement that’s packed full with old English taverns and ancient alleyways full of cafes, restaurants and boutiques. Lewis will also be leaving directions to Bradford-on-Avon Rugby Club, the local club that Lewis is now volunteer Director of Rugby, should his guests wish to head down and watch a local game. If that’s not enough, Lewis will also be giving guests a signed rugby ball, offering them some rugby pointers in his garden and conducting a personal tour of the house to welcome them to his home.
An Airbnb spokesperson comments: “This is an opportunity of a lifetime for a rugby fan looking for the most authentic all-round experience when they visit us this September. Through Airbnb all our guests live like locals, but it’s not often that they get the opportunity to be hosted by one of England’s sporting superstars at a time when all eyes are on the nation.
“We hope the nation will be inspired by Lewis to showcase their great British hospitality by hosting fans from around the world to give them their best rugby experience yet.”
