This Star Wars themed house is the Airbnb you have been looking for

A massive Star Wars-themed villa has been listed on Airbnb where every room has been transformed into iconic locations from the movie franchise.

The house, aptly named Twelve Parsecs*, is a nine bedroom property which sleeps up to 17 guests and is the perfect retreat for avid fans.

All rooms have been painstakingly hand painted with impressive wall murals, 3D custom-molded planets, and handmade beds all in line with the theme.

Fans can sleep in Alderaan, Hoth, Cloud City, Tatooine, Mustafar, Dagobah, Endor, or in one of the spaceships.

Those staying in the master bedroom will be able to sleep in a replica Tie Fighter cockpit complete with hexagonal viewport, and controls.

The Tatooine room has twin beds shaped like the podracers - with the walls painted like the harsh desert landscape of the planet, where guests can sleep under the suns.

The Millennium Falcon themed bedroom boasts a replica cockpit of the famous vessel and even the hallways have been remodelled to look like the corridors of a smuggler ship.

One room has been transformed to look like an Ewok hut while another bedroom resembles a Hoth ice cave.

The kitchen and bathrooms have been packed full of Star Wars themed appliances and accessories, including a Millenium Falcon shaped waffle maker and Death Star toaster.  Even the literature in the property is on-theme, with copies of both the Jedi Path and the Book of Sith, depending on your chosen path.

Outside guests will find a private pool, naturally with themed inflatables.

The owner has also hidden 16 themed 'Easter Eggs' for guests to find around the  property.

The house isn't in a galaxy far, far away, but it is located in the town of Davenport in Florida. Which is a handy place if you're visiting the Orlando theme parks as it's less than half an hour from Walt Disney World and Universal Studios.

The property has been developed by vacation rental firm  Loma Homes, which is also working to create Jurassic Park and Harry Potter themed properties.

The rental currently has five stars on Airbnb, receiving rave reviews from guests who have stayed previously.

Prices for stays at Twelve Parsecs start from  £298 per night on Airbnb. As the property sleeps up to 16 people, that works out at £18pp a night if you fill the property.

And despite being thoroughly kitted out for the discerning Star Wars fan, it's worth noting that the property isn't affiliated with the Walt Disney Company.

*And if you're wondering why the rental is named Twelve Parsecs, it's a nod an iconic quote from Han Solo, who when trying to convince the Jedi of his ship's speed he claimed: "You've never heard of the Millennium Falcon? It's the ship that made the Kessel Run in less than twelve parsecs."
