WE’RE LIVING ON A JET PLANE!

The Jet Star, Redberth, South Pembrokesh­ire

-

UNIQUE SELLING POINT: Perfect for those of us who will never fly in a private plane. Admittedly, the Jet Star private plane has no wings, no engine, no tail and appears to have crash landed (albeit neatly) on a campsite in Wales. It is the real deal — a Jetstream, built in the Seventies, used in Senegal by gun smugglers and still boasting original fittings including a lit-up bar area, an on-board loo and a cockpit that now houses an Xbox complete with flying games. It all started a year and a half ago when, in a bid to make his campsite ‘stand out a bit from the yurt site down the road’, owner Toby spent £30,000 buying the jet from a reclamatio­n yard and doing it up.

SLEEPS: Four guests — in a double bed in the cabin attached to the end of the fuselage, plus one small single and a sofa bed.

WHAT YOU GET: One bedroom, one bed, a loo and basin on board — plus a nearby utilities block with hot showers, fridges and other kitchen facilities.

DON’T FORGET: A pilot’s cap and your own towels.

PERFECT FOR: Romantic couples, families, air traffic controller­s, pilots and plane enthusiast­s.

COST: £125 per night.
