A Place in the Sun fans appalled by ‘death trap’ property – fuming ‘this is an accident waiting to happen!’

A PLACE in the Sun fans viewers were left disgusted by a 'death trap' property - as they raged 'this is an accident waiting to happen'.

Maria and Paul were on the search for their dream holiday home in Costa Del Sol.

With a budget of £270,000 at their disposal, their hopes were set on finding a three-bedroom, two-bathroom house complete with a pool and an 'established garden'.

They added that they were willing to stretch to £30k more if they came across the right property.

The second property they saw impressed them from the exterior, but when they went inside, they were worried by one aspect.

The property's only stairway was a steep spiral staircase.

Paul admitted he had a "dodgy knee" and would struggle with the stairs, so the three-bedroom house was out.

Viewers were left appalled by the feature in the property on social media.

Taking to X/Twitter, one wrote: "Spiral staircase death trap."

A second added: "Spiral staircases need to be left to be buried away in history."

A third penned: "Accident waiting to happen."

A fourth wrote: "Well that's not safe, poor Paul!"
