JVA wanted to create more than just a space for sleeping upstairs, so each of the four double bedrooms has a bathtub in it, with windows carefully positioned so that one can lie in warm water and take in views of the North Sea and surrounding meadows.

This extra-large, four-wheel packing case is constructed from a super-light, triple-layer, high-performance alloy of ABS and polycarbonate. It sets the standard for strength, durability, mobility and aesthetics, and is ideal for extended business and leisure trips, or for two traveling together.<br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvKuCwpYnfm4NLess9pYekuBseK3XuKsUPhBaRqIe7jYz_7tfWuegddEtZD3ec6YkFbWsSjWTRkkz_zNiwV9bE_A6ZGOInqAof-r6DM-CnnilP7FfqEqs-3Hiacqqh91Q_XgawMZW2r_0/s1600/pTUMI1-9569523_alternate3_v400.jpg"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5591068001873374946" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhvKuCwpYnfm4NLess9pYekuBseK3XuKsUPhBaRqIe7jYz_7tfWuegddEtZD3ec6YkFbWsSjWTRkkz_zNiwV9bE_A6ZGOInqAof-r6DM-CnnilP7FfqEqs-3Hiacqqh91Q_XgawMZW2r_0/s400/pTUMI1-9569523_alternate3_v400.jpg" style="cursor: pointer;
