This adorable pointed roof that looks like a belly button has a strong fairytale vibe. But this quirky little cabin isn’t the design of a modern architect or a dwarf’s house — it’s actually made from an upside-down fishing boat.
This adorable pointed roof that looks like a belly button has a strong fairytale vibe. But this quirky little cabin isn’t the design of a modern architect or a dwarf’s house — it’s actually made from an upside-down fishing boat.
On Holy Island of Lindisfarne in northern England, there are not only numerous religious historical sites and castles, but also a traditional custom of converting discarded fishing boats into sheds for storage. It's not only creative and practical but also very eco-friendly.
Most of the island’s fishing boats were built in the 1900s, and two were even set on fire in 2005. The National Trust has rebuilt the damaged cabins. Now managed by local residents, these fishing boat cabins are open to the public. Visitors to the Holy Island shouldn’t just look at the churches — don’t miss these adorable little cabins either.
