Trade tea, a gramophone or massage for a hotel stay in Italy!!!

Plenty of hotels have made public requests, listing the offers they're willing to accept in return for a few night's board - but guests are also encouraged to take the initiative and suggest their own offer, which a hotel may respond to.

So if you've got material goods to offer a B&B, or a skill they might find valuable, you can search the 'Barter Week' website to find a hotel that's open to offers.

Wine and olive oils are the most popular requests in the food and drinks category, with plenty of hotels also looking for 'local produce' from guests' home countries or regions.

Language lessons, translation, and help with practical tasks such as gardening, laundry or olive harvesting can all be given as payment for a hotel stay.

Or perhaps you've got some spare Coca Cola memorabilia, English tea, a gramophone or artwork that's just gathering dust? All of those are on the wishlist too. Full story...
