TRANSFORMED: The inside of this WW2 operations bunker will astound you
A WW2 operations bunker has been transformed into a swanky holiday home in west Cornwall.
From the outside it doesnt look like much, but the interior encompasses four spacious bedrooms, a large open-plan living area, a kitchen and three bathrooms.
The unusual property, which comfortably sleeps six, is in a prime tourist hotspot just a short distance from the famous open air Minack Theatre and the stunning Porthcurno Beach.

The Bunker, which is also just ten-minute drive from Lands' End, costs just £20 per night, per person.
Images show the well-hidden exterior of the grass-topped bunker, which could quite easily go completely unnoticed by passers-by.
Also visible from outside the property is a gorgeous patio area where long summer's evenings can be enjoyed, whilst recently installed modern glass doors lead to the perhaps surprisingly elegant interior.
Far from the expected dark and dingy, The Bunker's large open-plan living area is flooded with natural light thanks to a series of skylights built in to the roof of the property.
