Helicopter Cottage at Winivan
• From $459 per night
Inspired by all of your Airstream comments yesterday, I decided to feature a list of cool getaway inns and hotels that are lovely and atypical – with vehicles or non-homelike features. This luxe cottage up top is at Winivan, a boutique resort/inn in Litchfield Hill, Connecticut. This cottage, one of 19, consists of a fully-restored 1968 Sikorsky Sea King Pelican HH3F helicopter inside a small barn. As they put it: “Take your cocktails in the cockpit, watch a film in the fuselage, relax by a glowing woodstove, and sleep in the cloud-soft king-sized bed outside the helicopter.” What’s not to like??
