The central London Airbnb is a luxury indoor forest at £200 a night.

LONDON - Earlier this week, home sharing platform Airbnb revealed the "Outside In" house, a two-level home in the centre of London that looks like an indoor forest.

Decorated and detailed all in green in collaboration with PANTONE, which revealed "Greenery" as the Colour of the Year for 2017, the listing went live on Tuesday, giving people the chance to book a £200-a-night stay with all proceeds to be donated to AIGA, the professional association for design.

Research from Airbnb showed that nearly two thirds (59%) of Brits are deprived of greenery and nature in their everyday lives, with a third of Londoners reporting that they get out and about in nature only once a week.

The study also showed that most Brits find an hour of gardening to be more restorative than a yoga session, while two thirds (67%) think walking through a forest has more calming effect than meditation.

My boyfriend and I stayed overnight at the luxurious indoor woodland abode to see what the fuss was all about - and to see whether a visit to "nature" would, in fact, make us feel less stressed, healthier, and more relaxed amidst what has been a rather dreary January.
