Woman transforms home into pink paradise - that you can rent for £2,400 a night

A woman has spent 10 years transforming her home into a pink paradise - and you can now rent it for £2,400 a night.

Amy Griffith, 43, moved to Essex from London in 2009 with the sole intention of completely transforming the property both internally and externally.

The house boasts dozens of stylish rooms, including six bedrooms, each designed completely differently - from the saloon and space-inspired kitchen to floral staircases and unicorns in the garden.

Amy, an artist and creative director originally from California, USA, said: "It is inspired by the past, the present and the future as well as more specific things such as art, fashion, music, nature, the universe and of course overall the king of emotion and answer to pretty much everything - love.

"It's hard for me personally to comment on what it is like to experience the house as an outsider because I created it and it is my reality.

"The feedback we get from many guests is that it is an aspirational and inspirational place that is often described a dreamlike and otherworldly escape."

The amazing house is available to stay in and hire out by making contact through their website.

It has been used for television opportunities, photo shoots and music videos.

It was recently featured in Little Mix's 'Bounce Back' music video.

Amy added: "There is no specific price tag for hiring the dream house; each quote is tailored depending on whether it is for commercial or personal use, how many guests there are, and what optional extras are asked for.

"Guests attending have to be over 25 but this can vary depending on the kind of event that is hosted and the occasion."

The quirky house includes lots of funky features such as leopard print wallpaper, floral walls, a pink quilted bed and a waterfall painted on the back of the house.

Amy added: "Almost all of our furniture is recycled from charity shops which I like to support, as well as car boot sales, and eBay, I prefer to buy things secondhand as they have a story and so much character, I am naturally drawn to that sort of history.

"I'm obsessed with making things so I've made a lot of it too!

"Every room is my favourite for different reasons, but ultimately I see the house as one piece and a total experience.

"It is a privilege as an artist to be able to create something on this scale and I appreciate every day.

"Fortunately, as time has passed, the neighbours now have a better understanding of what the house's creative purpose is and it has become a part of Tiptree.

"I'm very excited for what's next - the time has come to move one and create something new."

Amy has developed a range of paints affectionately name 'The Pink House Paints' and is largely made up of different shades of pink similar to those featured in and on the house as well as accent colours like Rose Gold.

The prices of the paints range from £27 upwards and are available to purchase on their website:  https://www.eatonhousestudio.com/s-h-o-p
