Holiday Houseboat.

Seems to be popular. Great novelty value as they try to re image La Linea.

It's not for me though, got loadsa places in Gib where we can stay for free!
 
1980 I was fitting out a new to me boat in Glasson Dock and realised the family on a big motor yacht had rented it as a holiday home.

Last year I had to spend a couple of nights in Lisbon for a PET scan. The nearest AirBnb was a 34ft yacht in a marina about 15 minutes walk along the river bank from the clinic. Very nice people, they were on the boat to greet us when we arrived from the airport around 23.30.
 
Nothing new they've had similar on the Norfolk Broads since at least the early 1960s..

That's the village of Wroxham on the left of the river, Hoveton on the right as you view it.
Today hiring a non moving house boat on Bridge Broad, not far beyond the bridge you can see will cost you between £385 and £728 a week
