Romantic Caravans - Made in Canada!








If you've ever dreamed about tiny house living with a romantic gypsy-inspired flair, then you have to check out Roulettes en Bois Tango. This new manufacturing business based in Quebec, Canada, builds fully insulated mobile cottages, using high quality materials, and offers four levels of finish: basic, finished, equipped and decorated, and made to measure.

The units are built on a trailer and can be pulled with a three-quarter ton truck using a conventional hitch and electric braking system. The web site states that "ready-to-use" lodgings can be set up in an hour. Models equipped with sanitation systems are designed to be hooked up to a standard sewer system. Each caravan has a 100 amp panel ready to be hooked up to an electrical feed system. The 24 foot-long version offers 204 square feet of space plus a porch.

The model featured on the website is absolute eye-candy! The attention to detail is evident everywhere from the wonderful paint colors and fabrics, to the trim and fixtures chosen.

Roulettes en Bois Tango is owned and operated by Maryse Roy and Guy Lemieux. You can find their company website at: http://www.roulottesenboistango.com/home_en.htm

Oh, yum!! Love the sink :) Caravans have fascinated me - there are several of sweet ones in Lisa Lovatt-Smith's 'Provance Interiors.' How fun to find a modern 'source!'
I've lived tiny when at Breitenbush Hot Springs resort (Oregon) my smallest home was 9 X 19, with a loft bed at one end, over a long clothes pole & under bed sitting area. Had a 2 burner propane stove, & a tiny fridge; & shared kitchen/ bath ~ 20 feet from my house.
One wall of bookshelves. I got my folk harp (27 strings) while living there (did have stuff in storage elsewhere) . . .
