Renting for one month - ideas?

Buy yourself a cheap caravan and put it on a site for a month. Or see if someone you know has one they would let you use for a short while.Favours are returned ... Trust is earned
Reality is an illusion ... don't knock it
There's a fine line between faith and arrogance ... Heaven only knows where the line is
Being like everyone else when it's right, is as important as being different when it's right
The interpretation you're most likely to believe, is the one you most want to believe0 -
Yes we considered a caravan but the site fees were between 20 and 30 a night and some higher than that. For that I could get some hotel deals.
Last night De Vere £19 room in their Autumn sale. And free wi fi - Yay!
Had a Toby Carvery for tea and breakfast was cereal at work.

Bit late but I would have said try sparerooms.co.uk. Smallest bedroom in a shared house often isn't so favoured - I was in a share and the spare room went through its fair share of lodgers since we were near a Uni and had adult students just wanting to stay for a term or so. Basically the rent was covered by the double rooms so having the box room occupied for a week/fortnight/month was all a bonus. Lodger had access to bathroom, kitchen and other communal areas just like the rest of us.0

I think the advantage of a caravan would have been that you could have dinner and breakfast at "home".Yes we considered a caravan but the site fees were between 20 and 30 a night and some higher than that. For that I could get some hotel deals.

So £19 plus dinner at a Toby Carvery is a fair bit more than £20-£30 plus dinner from Tesco.
But this way you get the fun factor!0 -

Thats true JimmyTheWig, and I may have been persuaded but my OH failed to see the wonder of a caravan in November/December......
To save money tonight on food we plan to eat at Costco
We have to drop by anyhow to pick up supplies for work so we are going to indulge in the £1.25 jacket potatoes.
