LOTTERY multi-millionaire Adrian Bayford has surprised pals by opening an Airbnb in his garden — for extra cash.
He has turned a cottage just 80 yards from his £12million mansion into a three-bed holiday home and is charging £110 a night.
The rental will earn him the same as he could in interest in just 13 minutes from the £148million EuroMillions jackpot he won with ex-wife Gillian in 2012Credit: Andrew Styczynski - The SunHe has turned a cottage just 80 yards from his £12million mansion into a three-bed holiday home and is charging £110 a nightIt will earn him the same as he could in interest in just 13 minutes from the £148million EuroMillions jackpot he won with ex-wife Gillian in 2012.
A pal of Adrian’s said: “It makes you wonder if he actually realises how rich he really is.”
They added: “Everyone knows Adrian likes a good money-spinner but this is mad. He can make more money having a shower than letting this Airbnb.”

His pal added: “Adrian is a really warm, generous and welcoming guy but he doesn’t need to have strangers staring at him.”
Ray Black, of money-minder.com, said Adrian’s fortune could make £5,000 interest in just ten hours on an instant savings account.
He added: “It means if you want to start up a business, you probably have reasons other than just making extra cash.”
The Airbnb is being managed by a pal and is described as located “on a beautiful country estate situated on the border of Cambridgeshire and Suffolk”.
