7. Gypsy caravan
Set on the edge of a sleepy farming village near Hornsea, this Gypsy caravan is housed within the grounds of a Grade II listed farmhouse. Overlooking the surrounding countryside, it offers guests the chance to wake up to the chorus of bird song. It has a rating of five stars from seven reviews, with one guest saying: "Amazing place, great hosts. Tranquil, relaxing. Not enough superlatives to describe how much we enjoyed it. Will definitely be returning." Photo: AirBnB
