A Place in the Sun buyers storm out of 'claustrophobic' apartment

Danni Menzies was left "gutted" during Monday's instalment of A Place in the Sun after a couple walked out of a home she had picked for them to view.

Shane and Sharon were looking for a holiday home on the Costa Del Sol, and had a budget of £135,000. Both enjoy playing golf, and wanted a two bedroom apartment. Unfortunately for Danni, they proved to be tricky customers and didn't seem to really like any of the properties she showed them.

One apartment was dubbed "claustrophobic" and even prompted the pair to walk out before viewing it in full. The home, a two-bedroom flat in Riviera del Sol, was on the market for £137,888.

Despite being located near a fantastic beach as well as shops, bars and restaurants, and two golf courses, Shane and Sharon were not happy with it. It had a private garden and two huge swimming pools, though there was a busy road behind it.

Shane said the living room was "claustrophobic" and when Danni asked if they'd like to see any more, he bluntly said "no". The three left the apartment without looking at any other rooms.

Sharon said she thought it would have been "a bit more open plan" and that she did not like it at all. Speaking to viewers at home, Danni said: “I’m a bit gutted this ground floor apartment with two bedrooms, that’s on the market for a negotiable £138,000, didn’t go down quite as planned.”

As the show came to its end, the pair said they liked two of the homes they were shown but not enough to make any offers.

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