If you ever find yourself planning a trip to Azay-sur-Cher, France (about  3 hours south of Paris) you could rent this 252 sq. ft. gypsy caravan cabin.

It’s location is not far from Loire castles and royal city of Amboise. This cabin is just the right size for two people staying on a holiday.

As you walk up the stairs to a small porch you enter the cabin through glass French doors. In the living area you will see the full-functioning kitchen, dinner table and small couch to relax.

Towards the back of the cabin you will find the bathroom and master bedroom. The bathroom has a shower, toilet and sink.

The large deck outside provides great space to sit and enjoy the scenery.

Let’s take a look at the gypsy cabin below.

This Narrowboat renovation project in London is a guest post by Sarah Meyer

Hi Alex and fellow Tiny House Newsletter readers,

I hope you are doing well! I love Tiny House Talk and hope our journey of taking an old narrowboat and making it our home can inspire others.

I am from the States and my other half is from England. We wanted to do something different when we started out in London. I had lived in Seattle and we have both visited and fell in love with the houseboats there. So when all the pieces fell together for us to buy and make our home on a boat, we jumped at the opportunity.

When I was leaving the States, people were either inspired by our choice or thought it was completely crazy. Especially, as our home was going to be the size of most peoples bedrooms. However, we have been living here for over a year now and could not be happier. Also, when I say ‘we’ this includes two adults and one very happy, but giant, golden retriever. So living small in central London, with a dog, is completely possible.

Below you’ll find the ‘before’ and ‘after’ photos as we redid the boat.
