Before its transformation, the caravan was in a very sorry state - covered in moss and with the interior completely run down.

But after working tirelessly on the holiday home it is barely recognisable decked out with kitsch finds sure to be the envy of any vintage lover.

Captioning the post, she wrote: “We finally finished our vintage caravan she is 52 yrs old . Bought her for £50 completely rebuild on a budget .

“The wardrobe was huge, made it smaller to fit in and used the draw as one of the seats .

“We reused most things and bought 2nd hand .Her name is Iris.”
