London - Online home rentals site Airbnb came under fire on Monday night for allowing properties to be advertised as "Covid-19 retreats".
Hotels, hostels and other guest houses have been forced to close to reduce temptation amid glorious weather. New coronavirus laws say holiday lets should be provided only to key workers such as NHS staff who need to self-isolate near work. The hosts, who have listed their homes as being "perfect for isolating with family" or an "idyllic cottage", have continued to flout government lockdown rules which state only keyworkers should be the sole recipients of holiday accommodation amid the coronavirus outbreak.
The Daily Mail contacted the owners of ten properties in St Ives, Cornwall, three of which accepted our reporter’s request to rent their properties, contrary to the government’s rules.
