About this property

Woodlyn Park Plane cockpit Unit

  • Our Bristol Freighter Plane is one of the last allied planes that was flown in Vietnam. This plane is split into two motels: the cockpit and the rear tail. It is truly a one-off unique piece and there is no other such plane accommodation existing in the world.

    It is for the true adventurer. One bed is located up in the cockpit and you must be fit to climb the steep ladder to access the controls and that sleeping area. As such the upstairs is more suited for fit children. Children MUST BE older than 8 years of age. This sleeping area can also be hot in the summer months.

    The upstairs bed is unsuitable for younger children or people with physical limitations.

    There is also a double bed on the lower level.

    There is an ensuite bathroom with shower and toilet, as well as a living/eating area with kitchenette. The kitchenette features a gas hob, microwave and refrigerator for light meals.

This place needs A LOT of work. We thought it would be something unique to do but it exceeded our expectations of that. It smells wet and mouldy the minute you enter. The shower has almost no pressure. There's perspex covering large openings of the plane. Theres rat droppings near the bed up in the cockpit. Unfortunately it was not the highlight of our trip.
