"This only takes like an hour, and that's everything wiped down and cleaned."
Emily first started in the front room and decluttered her laundry and wiping down all the surfaces before heading the bedroom she shares with her children to make the beds.
The bedroom had one doubled bed on one side for Emily and her hubby and a set of bunk beds for her kids on the right side of the room.
She then gave the whole caravan a hoover before getting to work in the kitchen and doing the washing up from breakfast.

Tiny Homes FAQs
The tiny house movement began in the USA before gaining popularity in the UK.
What is a tiny home?
Tiny houses are small, fully-equipped living spaces designed to lead a more sustainable, off-grid lifestyle. Although they vary in size and shape, tiny homes tend to be between 15 and 50 square metres in capacity, made of sustainable materials and are easier — and cheaper — to maintain than traditional brick homes.
Are tiny homes legal in the UK?
As long as the tiny house doesn't exceed 19.8m x 6.7m in size, it is defined as a caravan in UK law. Therefore, tiny houses are classed as legal additional living space.
Can you get a mortgage for a tiny home?
The small size and relatively low cost of tiny houses means they’re not generally considered eligible for a mortgage. However, there are plenty of options to take out a loan to fund your dreams of the perfect, moveable home.
Another commented: "Looks lovely."
"Beautiful," penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: "Where do you find seat covers..?"
"I just use blankets," replied Emily.
