Quite what Her Majesty the Queen thinks of a caravan dressed in her honour is anybody's guess but the static at Cayton Bay holiday park, near Scarborough, is certainly causing a stir.

Modelled on Buckingham Palace, Her Majesty's Royal Caravan, is available to rent from £159 for a weekend stay. Holiday park owners Parkdean Resorts claim it that the souped-up static is "fit for a queen" and allows guests to "live like royalty".

The motivation for the themed holiday let is to "get people excited about staycations in the UK."

Features include a red carpet, chandeliers in every room, two gold-plated toilets, custom-made gold and red velvet thrones, a four-poster bed in the master bedroom with bespoke crown decoration, plus a royal dog bed and gold plated dog bowls. The kitchen has also been gilded.

Parkdean Resorts claim that no expense has been spared and add, unspecifically, that "£50,000-£100,000" has been spent on renovations taking the caravan from a modest holiday home to one of the most exclusive holiday lets in the UK".

Her Majesty's Royal Caravan is operating on a first-come, first-served basis. Based near Scarborough the caravan is in easy walking distance of beautiful Cayton Bay and guests will be able to enjoy all amenities of the park.
