I booked 'Elsie' for a last minute trip for a national competition. I was on my own and I'd left my run a bit late. Browsing the map Elsie caught my eye, initially because of the price, and then because it appeared a somewhat unusual rental.
I found myself a little uncertain from the main posting, but it was the reviews that swayed me into going for 'interesting' and making the booking.
Elsie is an old caravan settled in Felicia's backyard with an annex, probably 1.5x additional floor area, attached to the door side of the van. The van is beds, some bench area, and some storage. The annex has kitchen, dining table, and bathroom. One wall of the annex has a clear poly roll-up wall.
While I stayed it was very cold - ice on windshield cold - and I was comfy warm in bed (without any heaters running) and also out-of-bed in Elsie herself (heater most certainly running). The annex was very cold, so I made my breakfast and ate / drank back inside Elsie. The other mornings, cold but not freezing, I was okay out in the unheated annex.
I used the main bed, and found it very comfortable (a little to my surprise, Elsie being a caravan and all). I slept well, even the night where we were hit with quite severe storms, and was never cold (despite plummeting outside temperatures).
The bathroom is similarly unheated (although you could move the heater there from inside Elsie) but the shower excellent ... great heat and water pressure. There being no bathroom basin took a little adjusting, but this *is* a very compact lodging. The kitchen area has all very good equipment: a fridge; microwave, electric jug; and 2-hotplate induction stove top.
Felicia, Elsie's owner and my host, was lovely. Very friendly and helpful, as were her chocolate labrador and tabby cat.
Elsie is a little different. She's compact and quaint, but comfortable and fully serviced and my stay was superbly supported by Felicia and her furry 'helpers'. If she's available I'll be booking Elsie for the same tournament next year.
