The Ladies Privy

The Loo's in the car park at The Forbidden Corner are hilarious. They are situated in what appears to be a wooden hut.




I could have watched the reaction of the visitors all day! 2 Lovely ladies stood for a good 5 minutes discussing earnestly whether they should use them separately or together!







And then you realise that they are a joke and you've been had! (the seats are nailed shut so that no one can be in doubt!!!).

A side door leads you into some of the most fabulous loo's in all of the land!





And like the rest of Forbidden Corner, the detail is fabulous.



I also forgot to show you this magnificent beast. He was sat with his harem in the deer park at Forbidden Corner.


They had gorgeous grounds to wander in. North Yorkshire has some of the most beautiful and stunning scenery in the whole world.

That place looks great! I'm off to investigate further...it sounds right up my street, except it's a bit further North and over a bit to the right, hee hee. Love the joke loos, someone else has my sense of humour. xxx

I think I may visit, me & hubbo going for a weekend at Aysgarth in November, so may have to pay a visit! (not toilet humour).

So funny...and it's a good thing they nailed the lids down, because some folks just never get the joke! Looks like a lovely place!

Rosie said...

What fun - I bet people's expressions went from incredulity to sheer horror until they realised! The 'proper' loos look fantastic - of course, now I know if ever I'm lucky enough to visit I'll waltz in with great aplomb and leave everyone else pondering:)

Very ecclesiastical-looking loos - when you get to the real ones. Love the snake, too.

North Yorks is lovely!

Love the detail of the snake!
I've visited a funny loo too in my childhood but sadly no pictures..only slides! See how old am I!
Have a good week!

Haha brilliant!! There was a double toilet in a club in Hull a long time ago and it was quite popular, nobody batted an eyelid - you can carry on talking the whole time!

Lisa said...

Brilliant!
I bet loads of people are a bit worried when they see those on arrival at the ladies!

What a hoot those loos are, I bet it was a treat to see the faces of the visitors, at least it must have given them a laugh.
