A Place In The Sun presenter Jonnie Irwin mortified by strange home that looks ‘like a private sex club’

A PLACE In The Sun presenter Jonnie Irwin was left mortified by a strange home that looked ‘like a private sex club’.

The host of the Channel 4 show has seen the insides of plenty of properties over the years, and has now recalled one of the strangest ones he’s ever seen.

He told : “The strangest was definitely in Florida.

“From the outside it resembled something out of the Flintstones but inside was a mixture of a 1970s B-movie and a private sex club.”

As for the best property he’s seen, Jonnie said it had to be a beach house on the Caribbean island of Grenada.

He explained how the property had a veranda on stilts with a stunning view and his property hunters not only snapped it up, but still own it today.

His co-star Jasmine Harman also shared the properties that stuck in her mind with one of the most expensive being worth £17 million in California.

Meanwhile Laura Hamilton, who joined the show in 2012, recalled a “disaster” she had at one property in Florida.

The crew managed to get locked out of a building they were viewing, with all their equipment trapped inside as well as the house hunters bags and the keys.

Earlier this month, Jonnie found himself stuck with a pair of indecisive property hunters who kept changing the goal posts.

Michael and Seamus switched their initial enthusiasm for a much-coveted holiday home in Competa in Axarquia, Spain, for a point-blank refusal to commit.

As the episode closed, it was confirmed the couple had an offer accepted on a building project – a major U-Turn to what they originally requested from the host, who has been fronting the property development show for the past 17 years.

A Place in the Sun airs weekdays at 3pm on Channel 4.
