Two converted yellow RAF Sea King helicopter glamping pods at North Yorkshire Water Park
North Yorkshire Water Park, Scarborough

Spend the night in a real helicopter

Genuine RAF Sea King search-and-rescue helicopters, converted into back-to-basics glamping pods on the water at Scarborough. The most unusual night's sleep in Britain.

Real RAF Sea King helicopters. Reborn as back-to-basics glamping pods by the water. There's nowhere else like it.

Genuinely one-of-a-kind

Authentic RAF Sea King airframes — cockpit dials, rivets and all — that you actually sleep in.

Back to basics

A double bed, bunks, a kitchenette and power for your phone. Bring a sleeping bag — it's an adventure, not a hotel.

On the water

Pitched on the field at North Yorkshire Water Park, with 21+ activities and the Scarborough coast minutes away.

Genuinely the best night's sleep we've had in years — and we slept in a helicopter. The cockpit at night is unreal.
Hannah · Sea King XZ589
Booked it as an anniversary surprise. Did not expect it to be this beautiful inside — that view from the cockpit is perfect.
Marc · Sea King XZ589
Our two kids have told literally everyone they slept in a helicopter. Loads of room and a brilliant spot by the water.
