Red Rescue Retreat Tiny Bus Cottage in Keswick, United Kingdom

If it couldn’t get any better, this fire-bus turned cottage is located on a working beef and sheep farm. And of course, there’s a fireman pole to enjoy.
No modern home is complete without Netflix, I suppose.
Are you going to be using this to get down, or would you rather take another route?
Full-size bedroom to enjoy in this fire-truck cottage.
But no worries, this bus isn’t going anywhere. It’s staying put right here.
How cool is this? There’s even a little desk up here in the bedroom/loft.
Nothing like a little toy firetruck to pay homage to this home’s past.
Looks like the firefighter pole is there for decorative purposes only.
Off to the children’s area!
Oh okay, there’s a children’s area. That’s why the pole is railed off. Making sense.
The kitchen is luxurious, compact, and super-beautiful!
The bathroom is like something out of a five star resort…
Did I mention that there is a sauna?
Enjoying your life…
A fire truck turned into a cottage.
With magnificent views, too.
Imagine calling a place like this home..!
