The childhood home of George Harrison is set to open as an Airbnb for Beatles fans after it sold at auction for £171,000.

The Beatles guitarist moved into the terraced house at 25 Upton Green in Speke in 1949 when he was six years old, and remained there until the 1960s. It was during his time at the house that George met Paul McCartney and John Lennon, and the three held some of their first rehearsals there.

Beatles fan Ken Lambert, 48, from the USA, bought the house when it went under the hammer with Omega Auctions in November.

Ken told the ECHO: “I’m a big Beatles fan and George is my favourite Beatle. When the Beatles broke up I was a big fan of George and followed his music and all the things he did outside the Beatles.

“I saw that it [George’s childhood home] was available for sale just in my news web feed. It was on every platform – BBC, CNN, New York Post – I then decided to place a bid on it. I wasn’t necessarily thinking I would win.
