Helicopter Glamping

OPENING  MAY 2026

We have taken camping to new heights with the launch of two new helicopter glamping pods, offering guests the chance to sleep inside real, converted aircrafts.They offer a distinctive blend of adventure and comfort, designed to appeal to couples, families, and guests seeking an alternative short break.

The pods have been crafted into unique and cosy places to stay while preserving some of their original features and character. Originally built for the RAF for Search and Rescue, both the ZE369 and XZ589 offered decades of service at the forefront of life-saving missions across the UK, carrying out daring rescues in all weather conditions.

Each helicopter includes a double bed with a portal lit window into the tail, along with a set of bunk beds, ideal for children. Guests will also have full access to the cockpit with access to some of the controls and switches, which has been transformed into a dining area. The helicopters are equipped with a microwave, toaster, kettle and fridge, and you can also open up the winch operator’s sliding door to steps out onto a gravel landing pad, with a picnic bench to enjoy food and drinks.
