Trashed Harry Potter rental home 'like a crime scene'
The Independent
|March 18, 2025
The owner of a Harry Potter-themed rental home has shared her disbelief and sadness after it was trashed so badly it resembled “a crime scene”.
Sadie, the host of the property in Watford, Hertfordshire, had painstakingly transformed the rental property into a dream home for Harry Potter fans, complete with themed rooms, props and games.
After sharing updates about the property on TikTok, which was available to rent via Booking.com and Airbnb, she revealed that a guest had wrecked the property leaving her with £5,000 worth of damage.
Following the guest’s departure, Sadie returned to discover frozen chips scattered across the floor, a smashed TV covered in bleach, furniture upturned or missing, shattered glass and broken floating lanterns.
Bespoke Harry Potter items were also either damaged or misplaced.
