The cosy construction features a tin roof and sandbags and sleeps up to four in bunks with mattresses.

Guests are told to bring sleeping bags.

Their accommodation boasts toilet and shower, wood burner, table and chairs and copper kettle.

Known as Sgt Taylor’s Bunker, it is in woodland in Norfolk and advertised on website Host Unusual.

A listing describes it as the perfect spot in which to wind back time, and imagine life in the trenches — like in Oscar-winning film All Quiet on the Western Front.

Nearby are beaches, seal watching, archery, cycling and the Norfolk Coast Path.

Sgt Taylor was in the Lovat Scouts, a British Army unit formed in the Second Boer War of 1899-1902, who dug the training trench in 1915.

In 1916 they became the Army’s first sniper unit, known as sharpshooters.

The trench also boasts a toilet and shower
