You can have a day out on a tradition 'vardo' with an open air 'Gypsy meal". Open March to October. weekends. info@boswell-romany-museum.com The museum is run by the Romany Boswell family and is the best introduction to Romany life and history. Well worth a visit and will make you question the racist opposition whenever a legal Gypsy site is proposed.

Thank you, Christina! I myself have loved tiny eccentric homes since my hippie days in Marin County, California, where I remember fondly the wildly creative (in both ornamentation and space farming) in handmade houses, buses and trailers of friends, boyfriends and Neil Young's...

I was in Great Missenden to visit a family friend about 12 years ago. I had heard that the caravan was available for tours, but was not able to go see it. :-( Thanks shedworking!

It´s not open very often though (usually just a couple of weekends during the summer when it´s open for charity) so you have to plan ahead.

We are all just rediscovering it and adapting it to modern life. Great post! Great little caravans! I really like this post because it’s a great reminder that living light is not a new idea at all.
