This beast was used by 653 squadron who were formed during WW2 and it served in Belize, Canada, Ethiopia and Norway and also Northern Ireland during the troubles. Im in no way connected to the army. Im just pretty good at googling and i was bored haha. I also thought I owed Tim a favour for all the great content hes provided us over the past few years. Cheers TimbeGimble 🙌

Hi from Andrew, Alberta, Canada!! Love your videos!
You saying that the loos were nice reminds me of when my Nan went to my school to see a play and said, "The toilets are beautiful!" lol

Like the ex-prison, crane, plane etc. & always interesting. Imagine telling the crew & soldiers who once flew in it, "One day, guys - this will be a place to stay in"; they would think you were insane 😊
I used to fly helicopters many moons ago. Shame they had to remove the controls and the OHCP. The blades are pretty sharp and they removed the rear tail rotor as these can be lethal as well! I suspect the main rotor is locked in place as they can spin with the wind if the locking pins are not used (Called windmilling). There wasn't much room in a standard one unless you had a Chinook or a Westland SAR configuration. Air con wasn't fitted as all you did was open the side flaps to cool off! To be honest I am surprised they didn't give you a safety check list as it still retains it's blades. I have a idea that particular one was used a MediVac. That one is of Type AH7 (AH1). Last recorded flight was 31st July 2015. Built in 1982 for the AAC. Covered 36K flying hours. 2540 TO/LS (Ambiguous)

Love it when you say so causally "you've got everything you need in here, apart from a shower and a toilet". It sounds so normal yet is such a deal breaker for me it's absurd 😂
I had visions of someone would be flying it with you sleeping in it lol.. great video 👍
Absolutely love your videos! Not exploring the country as much as I did when using a family railcard, when kids traveled for just a pound! Your videos remind me so much of the adventures I had with my children, homegrown and foster children, so many memories made!!

Thanks for your video on your helicopter stay,so unusual,hope you enjoyed your stay.Thankyou for another excellent vlog.
Looks a great sunny day nice vlog Buddy interesting idea
Need to do the domes next. Go back and book them.
Love it, enjoy these quirky overnight locations.👍😁
Great content thanks for sharing 😄
Would be cool if they had it on a bit of a hill overlooking the campsite , it would look great up high . The only downside i think would be so many of the other campers or kids constantly walking around it for a look

Hello Tim 😊This was a great idea. And good for a gift for someone who loves planes 😊👍👍👍👍

This is so cool! I love seeing these unusual places you can stay in!
Camp Katur, near Bedale. Lovely pods with en suite!
Thanks Tim very interesting and unusual something different looking forward to the next Yvonne 😊
BlackBerry wood Hassocks, Sussex has clamping in tree houses,a fire engine, a bus, gypsy caravan, airstream caravan, gypsy caravan, wild and woodland camping. We went woodland camping, it was great having a fire and so secluded. Next time we'd love to try one of the unusual clamping accommodation, would love to see your a review of this place.
Love this because my father worked for Westland helicopters in Yeovil back in the days. The Lynx was one of my favourites. Must admit never seen this kind of interior 😄
Port lympne near Ashford looks fun. You can stay in a beautiful wigwam in the safari park run by the Aspinall foundation. I bet Casper would love it.

Those pods by the lake worth a stay at Tim😉
Pods look fab !
I know im a little late to the comments but, I found what this helicopter was originally used for. Helicopter Westland Lynx AH1 Serial 241 Register (XZ676) used by Army Air Corps AAC (British Army). It was built in 1982.
I’m glad these places exist and I’d consider taking my two boys there one day, for a night only as I don’t think the lack of a toilet (with my bladder) would be a good idea for myself. I also imagine in the summer too hot and raining too noisy. Those pods looked great though and I would definitely fancy trying those out, especially with the views of the lake. The only slight criticism Tim, how much did you pay ? As you’re always good for telling us about the pricing of these types of places.

😲 I'd didn't imagine the Helicopter was near Blackpool either! You got a nice sunny day near Blackpool Tim! Love the woodlands & the yellow fields nearby! That Helicopter still looks so small close up to sleep in! Presumably it's an Helicopter with some History! A key to the Helicopter & a patio with Table & Chairs😂 That's certainly abit different! A cockpit Living Room! Amazing how a Microwave, Mini Fridge & Kettle with electricity like you say & a Little sink! Amazing how you can compact everything into such alittle space! Hope you get that TV working! Looks like a cosy Crash Mat you are sleeping on! Reminds me of the Apparatus at Primary School in PE with the Cosy Crash Mat! It was the same Royal Blue Colour too! Oh no, no Shower & Toilet in the Helicopter! But very novel the Washing Machine, Toilets & Showers & Sinks in a different place, basic but functional! Toilets winning Platinum Awards must be Clean!! Lovely lake & views about! I like the Little Log Pods! Lovely decking with the Pods. The glass pod looks nice waking up to that view from inside the glass pods! Amazingly you do look rather cosy in the Helicopter at nighttime! It was a long way to go to the Toilet in the middle of the night tho!!! So funny seeing the back of the Microwave in the Helicopter window In the Cockpit. Certainly abit of a unique experience there Tim!🚁🚁☀️

Brings back memories for me. So weird to see how it's been converted. In the 90s they were the fastest helos in the world. Might still be if they're still in service.
