Here's a project a guy built for a small sailboat; uses charcoal briquettes. Might be worth looking into for a small cabin. It would also be possible to draw the combustion air from outside.

Alan Jones Stove

Considering that charcoal is a super source of CO, careful construction and air tightness would be mandatory. . Some heat shields would be needed too IMO.

use pellets for a pellet stove in a small metal basket. it would be safer.
