Romantic night on Alps auctioned on eBay

A lucky - or unlucky - couple will have the opportunity to spend a night together 10,000ft up on a mountain in the Alps, with the peculiar holiday package due to be auctioned off on eBay.
The two lovers will be given a double bed, the use of a toilet and a luxury food hamper, but not much else.

They'll have to make do with each other for entertainment, whatever that may be, while they spend a night together in complete seclusion.

Tourism bosses in Ramsau, Austria, are posting the offer on eBay, and the winning bidders can expect to heat up their passions on a glacier on the World Heritage Site (let's hope it doesn't melt).

'We are offering an unforgettable adventure for two,' said a spokesman for tourism.

'Whether you have just fallen in love and want to surprise your partner or simply love nature - this night is sure to be unforgettable.'

A local mountain guide added the location suited people who are in love.

'It is a very romantic site under a sky of stars with no-one to hear or see you,' he said.

'Mind you, if they feel the earth move they'd better get going, it could be an avalanche.'

Profits from the auction will be given to United Nations' cultural organisation Unesco.
