Earlier on this month I made my way to the Birmingham NEC for the Holiday Park Innovations show having a look round to see what excitings things people have in store for the 2018 holiday season. There was one thing that really stuck out to me and I had to find out more. Tiny Eco Homes UK had the most impressive touring home/glamping/towing innovation I had seen in quite some time. So I decided to have a catch up with the company director Chris March to find out more about his creation.
Hi Chris, thank you for taking the time to speak with me. How did you come up with the idea of the Tiny ECO Home?
liked the idea of having a caravan to live and travel in but didn’t find them very homely or practical for living in so decided I would build a mobile house that has all the home comforts and more.
How many sizes do the homes come in?
Road legal mobile tiny homes are 8ft wide and we build up to 23ft in length. We can also build static homes which are on mobile chassis that can be built 12ft wide to 32ft in length.
Yes the majority of our projects are built to plans that our customers have drawn up.
We saw you at the NEC this month, how was the public reaction the your product?
We always draw a huge crowd wherever we go, everyone can’t believe the space inside and the level of quality of the finish in our homes.
How do you power the homes if it is not connected on site?
As standard the homes come with a mains hook up point, we offer a fully off grid package where our homes come fitted with solar panels and a battery bank which provides mains power throughout the home.
What is the most fun build you’ve had?
We enjoy every build as we are all ways working on new designs.
These seem ideal for both static and mobile. Have you sold any to people or couples who will use them for static living?
Most people just park the home up and use it on a permanent site to be lived in full time.
How do these come delivered, flat pack or pre-built?
We proved homes in every stage from just a rolling chassis to a fully built home.
How much input would a customer have in the design of these homes?
We really like the customer to get involved with the build. We even have customers come to stay with us so they can even get stuck in throughout the building process
Where can we find more about your company and product?
You can visit us at our website www.mobilehouses.co.uk
As you can see by the images and what Chris has said these homes are totally bespoke to your needs and can suit so many purposes. I think this may be added to my Christmas list.
