There's a saying " less is more ", which fits that caravan
I enjoyed this video, would have liked if you could have shown roughly where these are situated in Amsterdam on a map though but yeah I liked it
This is hilarious! I live in the house behind you on the kade. You could have popped over for a cuppa. This typical Amsterdam. The weather's away this wet this time of year and we only bike it! Only way to travel 😂😂
And the Dutch cyclist gives way to nobody, regardless of the situation 😮😅 I'm a wheelchair user and one time in Amsterdam the pavement was blocked by building materials and I had to go partly onto the cycle path for a moment to navigate safely around, did it make any difference? Did it heckers like, I was shouted at by a random cyclist, even though they could see the whole situation.
Hi Tim, the mysterious orange thing in the kitchen is a paraffin oil burner. You put the oil in the bottom. The three things is where the three wicks are (ajustable with the round things). They are quite old fashioned. You put a pot on it and used to simmer (slow cook) stew or beef. Anything really. My mum has several which she still uses 😅 Yes, i'm Dutch 😂
I was just about to put ….. Tim it’s a burner thingymebob but you explained it much better than me 😅
ha ha Thanks for the info!
Tim's card looks like your kitty cat! ♥
@@chelseagirl278Handsome kitty cat.
The Dutch seem to live a very hedonistic lifestyle. Very simple and free spirited way of living.
Hi Tim, we live in Amsterdam, just 2 streets from the bridge house you stayed in. We pass this place almost every day and we know it is a ‘hotel room’ now. But we never stayed in it so we are very happy with your video which gave us the opportunity to look inside. This part of Amsterdam has been build around 1925 and the interior of the bridge house is still authentic. Like the sink f.e. Where the orange stool is standing now, used to be the location for a coal stove. Greetings from Amsterdam, Ronald & Astrid
Thanks Ronald, your lucky to live in such a great city
I think most of the people in Amsterdam know these are used as hotel rooms now, it was pretty well covered in the news and papers when the houses were turned into hotel rooms.
From the Burj, to a jumbo jet, to a crane, to the Wynn and now - to a camper - TIM - where have you been all of our lives?! Your videos are just amazing!!!!! Thanks for so many smiles!
The indoor caravan one looks as if you are staying in a 1950s caravan show room lol.
That would be like camping in the tent section of Go Outdoors
Yeah, kind of.
Absolutely Go Outdoors! I'd rather deep in my car.
Shhhhssh!!! . You’ll give Go Outdoors “ideas”:😂
My favorite videos of yours are the ones when you go to these interesting, different kinds of hotels. It’s very cool of you to show us these places. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
I loved the first one - looked very cute. The second one , with the caravans is a great idea but having the toilets so far away (it’s like finding the loos in a Wetherspoons!) would put me off!
Lol it wasn't that far
The first place was my absolute dream! And I was surprised by the value. This WILL be happening for me, thanks for the heads-up!
This is certainly a very cozy one! Every single time I watch your videos, I think, "This one is the best!" You just keep outdoing yourself. Thank you for the amazing, enjoyable videos!
Thank you! 😊
I quite like the idea of the outside inn. I often travel solo but don't like sharing rooms with others in hostels and often find private hotel rooms to be quite expensive. It seems like a perfect middle ground for someone like me.
Also fully understand the awkwardness of running to a bathroom in a shared space. Last time I stayed in a hostel I was wandering to the bathroom in my pyjamas at 2am and ended up in a conversation with a person wearing a suit 😂
I liked the Outside Inn for the reasons! Privacy with common areas ☮️
The item at 5:25 is called a Petroleumstel. A tyipicla Dutch stove.
Works by burning kerosene stove and is ideally suited for simmering stew meat and stewed fruits.
I would not be putting kerosene in that thing (fumes in a small room)......I think the above comment mentioning paraffin is more accurate.
@@stevemurrell6167It's in the name, petroleum is kerosine, it's what this appliance was made for. Kerosine is actually pretty clean when it burns, it releases a lot less smoke than diesel/petrol.
My in laws still use a petroleum burner to heat their greenhouse, it's better for the plants than diesel.
-Idk about paraffin though, I've always heard it's bad for my asthma to burn paraffin candles, as they do produce smoke and leave residue on furniture.-
So I looked it up, and paraffin is the same as kerosene! It's not to be confused with paraffin wax, which I did. The candle stuff is different. So you're right, you put paraffin in it! Or kerosene or petroleum. It's all the same stuff with a different name! 🤯
@@MrsJolene- I wouldn't be putting petrol in it either.....it's a PARRAFIN burner FFS.
I'm a solo traveler and I'd love to sleep in either of those places! Thanks for showing them off, Tim! Oh, and never, ever stop letting us know how many people can fit in the shower - it's one of my favorite bits! Cheers from the USA
My pleasure! 😃 always ♥️ ❤️
Ha ha..next google will have a shower and people quantity icon for hotel bookings! Shower fits 👬👭🧑🤝🧑
Why travel alone ??
@@user-rl8mq9uf7b maybe they're single??
@@user-rl8mq9uf7bwhy not? 😂
I loved the bridge keeper houses. Really cute. Every thing you needed. Camper is "ify". Don't like getting dressed to use the bathroom. All in all it looks like a fun experience and it was definitely different. Safe travels home.
Wow Tim, loved those caravans...took me back to 70s holidays 😅 very retro & très chique 👍
My aunt had a caravan and in 60s to mid 70s we went there, no toilet, no shower, no water, no t v but I loved it.
“LOVE IT !!!” Darling little campers. What fun it would be to spend one night in that atmosphere ❣️🇺🇸
Hi Tim, we love your videos! And yes, we agree. They are some pretty weird places to stay :) Love, Jenny (aged 40) and Amelie (aged 7) xx x
Both places very quirky and cute. Thanks for taking us!
Thanks for watching!
The card with the black cat make the room even more inviting to me !
Walked past these when visiting my Dutch family but would have never thought they were hotels. So cool!
Fab video as usual. I love the caravans and beach huts , they really made me smile. The rain on the roof took me right back to being a little girl. I still love the sound now … reminds me of happy care free times
My aunts caravan had beds clipped to wall and you had to unclip them drop them to floor, this was 60s to mid 70s. Very basic, but loved it.
good old days lol
My parents caravan that had a double drop down bed that looked like a wardrobe when it was closed and I had the kitchen table that converted into a bed that had a curtain you could draw around for a little privacy.
@nickyphoenix2470 Yes, there were two double beds, 1 in the kitchen, 1 in the living room, and the 2 settees at the caravan front turned into a bed, sheets and blankets were underneath the settees in box frames, they used to have earwigs on them so I never slept lol
First hotel room was so cool, I would possibly stay there myself. The second, while a really interesting concept, it's a bit off the beaten path and fewer conveniences but still very cool.
As always, your fun and interesting Walk with Me adventures remain fantastic and super interesting! These, and the prior Crane Hotel suite, were a strange collection of what Amsterdam has to offer, but honestly Tim, I think if Marie & I ever visit Amsterdam, we’ll be staying in a more traditional hotel:) Stay, you & family, Very Well!! Bill
Glad you like them bill lol yes depends on what you like
I absolutely LOVE the bridge tender rooms!!! I am going to try and stay in one for a week! The outside/inn didn’t do much for me but was interesting to see.
The first mini house was charming! It was the size of a London $300 hotel room but with some coffee, tea, a pleasant bath, clean, and an engaging view. The trailers (caravans) were just stupid. And tasteless. You're a brave man, Mr. Tim.
Agree about the trailers. Claustrophobic!
Super cute place! Tim , I think you need to book a trip to Boston and book a stay at the Verb hotel. It's it's a very quirky place.
Nice spots! Both seemed very unique. Feel like a lot of warehouse type areas could set up indoor camping. IMO much less scary than the crane. That one still gives me the creeps!
Hi Tim. I love both of the two quirky places you stayed in. Both have their own unique charm about them. They also looked very inviting and cosy too.
Glad you enjoyed it Marie
Great showing two very different overnight stays, not sure I’d get a good night sleep in either.
Best travel channel. Concise content, with focus on the accommodation experience, you make it easy for anyone to decide if they could stay there or not. Keep up the good work. Definitely quirky stays for the lone traveller or with a group but each person having their own space because I cannot imagine sharing that space with anyone else. A rowdy party in that camping area would lead to total and absolute chaos, I would stay away unless I was with a large party that booked it all up.
Thanks so much Tina, appreciate that
@WalkWithMeTim keep it up. Love the content, and the occasional glimpse of the family. I still chuckle at the count of people in one shower BUT your explanation for using that measure was spot on. Units of measure should make sense and yours does. I don't like using the term 'common sense' but your channel is so easy to enjoy because there's lots of common sense in there and no faff or click-bait. Quality!
That was different - both enjoyable in a weird way for a long weekend. Very novel ideas and also very Amsterdam. Reasonable costs.
yes I thought the bridge house would be more
I love love love your videos Tim! You have the best personality for them. Funny, articulate, non biased. Thank you for all that you do!
Loved the vintage campers and prints. Wished that place had fake flowers and vines and more plants. The hotel on the water seemed kinda tacky and busy/loud.
I like the first hotel very cute! Thank you for sharing.
Small room in the caravan but cozy. You were surrounded by Vermeer paintings.
The room on the canal was vry nice. My type.
Absolutely loved the boat keeper hotel, I would love too stay in one! The 2nd place was not somewhere I would want too stay at all.
No, not a fan. My paintings are better.
We have a camper hotel in Thailand, but all the camper cars are located outdoors with a camping area available.
The mushroom caravan is so cute! 🍄😍
Right?!
I rented one of these bridge hotels for a week a couple of years ago. Very cool and unique. But it wasn't just loud; the whole house shook every time a bus or lorry drove by (mine was right next to a major bus stop). This and the compromised layout make it a bad choice for a week-long holiday, but a night or two would be perfect.
I think we have all been in that place going to the toilet in ur pants thinking no one else is up and finding someone 😅😂
ha ha ha h
Both so quirky, loved the caravan one that’s so cool! Never seen anything like that! You going to the toilet at 3 am 😂 I think most of us would have made that mistake thinking no one would be there 😂😂 another fantastic video Tim! Thanks for sharing x
That was fun, I liked both of them, but I wouldn`t like to have to go out to the bathroom; so between the two I prefer the bridge keepers house. Really unique places (although I shouldn`t be surprised; it seems to be your speciality lol). I did love the sound of the rain on the roof at the Outside Inn though, that would definitely put me to sleep! Great vlog as usual.
Hi Tim. Love those 2. I always wondered what it would be like sleeping in go outdoors shop. That must be what it's like. The river little hotel. Its now on my bucket list just because its super cool.
Hi Tim another great view of the 2 places very different very nice indeed take care stay safe
I liked the first one best by the canal. The trouble for me would be no loo or shower in carvan .I enjoyed your blog very much. Thank- YouTim🤗👍
I love the concept of the camper park! I've always been interested in staying one. It looks like a nice place to meet new people

Wow that's fascinating! The bridge keeper's house looks so cute and they thought of everything! I suppose these things are no longer in use because the bridges are automated now?
Not so keen on the indoor trailer park but it's a good idea for people who like that sort of thing.
I was wondering the same abt the bridge keeper's house @ Kitty...
They’re caravans not trailers
The crane was really weird, the canal master’s house was very cute, but the whole concept of the “fake” caravan/camper van site is genius ❤😂🎉😊
haha no way, the briddgehpuse is arpund the corner of.my.own house! didnt didnt know you could rent it, great video tim!
I myself am from The Netherlands and never knew about these former bridgekeepers residences turned into hotelrooms! Thanks for this awesome tip! 😁🙏
Happy to help! Lol
Tim
Thought you might be interested in a combined harvester converted into accommodation in boston Lincolnshire looks interesting 😊😊
Sounds interesting
I heard about it on Radio Derby and thought of you it's actually in Boston the Field of dreams in Derbyshire has Puma helicopter another interesting type of accommodation 😊
I agree try it out
The prices on both of those places were very reasonable for the experience. Would definitely consider both for the next time I'm in Amsterdam. Nice finds Tim !
Love them! There's also a sort of capsule hotel, which I considered a couple of years ago, but they designed for people with little to no luggage.
Oh i love the view of the canal! So pretty.
It's Madness-our house in the middle of the street! Unique, kind of fishbowl. Caravan hotel is even more unique! I would love to stay at the fake indoor campsite! The exterior of the camper you chose looks like the first one owned by my late grandparents.
What clever places there are to stay and that's thinking outside the box..😂 I'd certainly stay in both places.
Such a fun video! Love that you found and shared these two unique places to stay in Amsterdam. 😊
Super cool video!!! I love quirky night stays!!!!! Can't wait to see more!!! Cheers!
Vermeer art - Girl w Pearl Earrings - blowing bubbles - would amaze the artist if he came back to Amsterdam. Interesting idea for a hostel.
Loved this episode pal. Really interesting, keep these up 👍🏻
Wow! Great places! Love both the canal pods and the camping indoors!
You always take us to places no one else goes Tim! Super kewl! Safe travels, have fun! 🌅
Enjoyed that Tim thank you. Would love to visit those caravans. I remember caravanning in my grandparents caravan in the 70s. But they had a nice big modern one that easily housed a family. Eight berth, 2 bedrooms (no bathroom back them, used site facilities lol), gas lighting, battery operated portable black and white TV. Many happy memories. I could stay in one of those little ones too lol.
Very interesting video. Especially those bridge keepers' buildings look like something I'd love to check out next time I'm in the Netherlands, thanks for finding those and making a vid on one!
Both of these hotels are so cozy, I love it! Thanks for taking us with you, those will definitely go on my "stay there some day" list.
Outside Inn is too weird. No one else was staying there? Spooky. And imagine going on holiday to be told not to talk after 11. 😮😅
Love this 🫶🏻 bit dramatic about the kettle in the first place though! 😆 still amazingly cool though! 💖
Hey Tim they remind me of tiny homes great thank you for sharing ❤
Oh my god!! I love those campers, how fun!!
I love these two quirky types of accommodation, Tim! You have an amazing knack of finding really cool places. Amsterdam looks like a great city too. Keep up the spectacular work, I always look forward to your new videos!
Thank you
Thank you for the unusual tour.
Hi Tim this looks great hope all the family are well love you all ❤️👍🌹
Lovely video Tim.
Not gonna lie, the black and white tiled sink brought tears to my eyes. It gave me memories of my grandparents house in Rotterdam Holland as they had exactly the same in their kitchen.
Thanks Tim 😀
Very cool! Thank you for sharing!
Tim, you’re going to need to adjust the assessment of “people in the shower” measurement…I’m 6’3” 275lb’s and I require the whole shower 🚿 lol 😂! This is a great video and very informative. Btw, I’d be happy to take care of the chap that confronted you at the pub while you were in the crane room/mini-hotel. Safe travels 👍🏼
Deal!
Interesting places to stay. Not my kind of a night away but very interesting to know what is there. Thank you Tim.
Tim’s favourite word is random. I listen out for it every video.
Hiya Tim, great vlog, I really like the canal house you stayed in I thought it was unusual.and canvan indoor , hope you enjoyed, thanks for sharing your trip, 👍
I love how the Dutch really optimize their spaces. Also also, is it even a Tim video if we don't know how many people the shower fits xD
Cheers for the vid Tim. I like it when you give us a tour of unusual places!
Just adored the first place over the water! The caravan place I’m not so sure about! Great video!
I absolutely love these! Great video as usual!! we are going back to Amsterdam so thanks for these we might go here haha :)
You and you’re videos are ace. So eclectic and different.
That first place was so cool and unique. I’d definitely stay there.
Keep up the good work.
🙏❤️.x
Wow, thank you!
Wow, very cool places to stay! Please share more! 😊
Very interesting video two very different but amazing places thanks for sharing ❤️👍🏻
Loved this video, it is fascinating to see the labour of love put into these unique places. Would be awesome if you could include if a hotel has any access issues like the outside inn had as it isn't often obvious. Things like steps instead of ramps, disabled toilets if they have them etc. There are so few wheelchair or mobility aid focused travel content in the UK especially.
I’ve never been to Amsterdam when it wasn’t sunny and beautiful (April, June and October visits). Lucky me!🇨🇦
Excellent video Tim, for a minute I thought that was a caravan showroom, looks like a unique experience. Keep up the great work 😊 really enjoyed the video
I love both of these places they are both fabby!! And yeah seeing different other kind of places to stay is awesome!!
Love this! Very entertaining and informative for a person with a person with absolutely no (0) experience!🙃 Thank you, Tim
Hi Tim brilliant vlog again . Absolutely fascinating seeing all the quirky places you can stay in 🤩
Yeah, I liked it Tim, thank you for another quirky video! All the best from Sydney Australia 🇦🇺
Well those were two quirky places to stay defffo be great to stay in thanks for sharing your experience 🙂
Brilliant! More of these unusual places please 😍
Very nice 2 different types or bespoke hotels thanks 4 sharing tim
Glad you enjoyed it
Hello Tim,that little house by the bridge might have been noisy early hours of the morning with the trams,but for what it is,very cosy to stay.the caravan is a different experience altogether,the rain in the morning was the effect they probably going for.great video.
Great video love that it was different to what you do
To great little hotels.
The caravans are amazing, love the retro ones, would love to stay in one of them.
Very charming places. The caravan site seemed so whimsical, when you said "You might ask yourself where do you wash up or shower or get a drink" and then made your way to the fridge, part of me wondered if the shower was inside it.
