Many people laughed when Nikki Cuddy picked up a 50-year-old caravan with the intention of turning it into a money-making scheme.

But not many are scoffing now as the Ribble Valley native has converted the rundown tourer into Polly the Vintage Caravan which can be used for everything from girly glamping to hen dos and secret tea parties.

The Lancashire Telegraph reports that Nikki has been inundated with requests from people looking to use Polly for a number of occasions.

She told the news provider: “Young couples have booked her for their weddings – as a focal point; she has also been hired out for tea parties with a group of girls.”

Once a dilapidated camper destined for the tip, Polly has been restored with an interior decor reminiscent of the 1960s shabby-chic period combined with an essence of French style, and has been the talk of the town since its creation.

Polly is certainly on a par with the popular glamping models that have recently been making great strides in the Belgian capital of Brussels.
