Airbnb has revealed its 2020 Trend Survey, and one of its findings is that travellers increasingly want to stay in miniature, simplistic and efficient tiny homes. Here are a few of our favourite small dwellings around the world that you can rent on Airbnb.
A tiny house in Nashville

This tiny house sleeps four people and is located in a quiet backyard in the middle of Nashville's design district. Repurposed vintage cabinets and a claw-foot tub share this clever space with modern appliances and air conditioning, and guests can unwind in front of a movie on the projector.
An airship dwelling in Scotland

The AirShip is situated in a beautiful, secluded position on a four-acre site in Drimnin on the west coast of Scotland.
