The owner said the tenant — who must pay a £290 deposit — can use the facilities at a nearby Tesco or the gym, for an extra £30 a month.

It is parked by a block of flats in Streatham, South London.

The ad states: “Campervan to rent to stay in. Not to be driven. You stay in my car park.”

Letting agent Pablo Joseph added: “You can use camping toilet with bag for emergency and empty in bin outside.”
