The Tower offers 5 storeys of comfortable living areas and flexible accommodation with enormous windows in the glass observation room looking across Lincolnshire marshland and beyond. The 3 bunkers, plane and helipod are definitely a little different, fun conversions but with plenty of comfort features and some with hot tubs. The Tower living areas on the upper floors make the most of the countryside outlook, with a fully equipped kitchen on the 3rd floor and lounge diner on the 4th for family time. The Jetstream plane is bound to be popular with youngsters, for the excitement of a night in the cockpit bed. The helipod sleeps 2, a little bolthole for couples, and the 3 bunkers work well for young families or 2 couples. All in all a unique place to get together with friends and family. Bedrooms are configured as doubles, twins and bunks, some with en suites, ideal for a mixed gathering. Bathroom facilities are plentiful across all units (please note that the Jetstream and the helicopter have a kitchen, shower and toilet in their own separate buildings). The games room communal space is equipped with table tennis and pool, perfect for family competition or for the children of the group to let off steam. The astro turfed area can be used as a picnic area for everyone to eat together. And dogs are welcome in most of the units, space permitting. East Kirkby Aviation Centre and the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight visitor centre at RAF Coningsby are bound to be of interest, and Lincolnshire Wildlife Park and Parrot Sanctuary is nearby for a family day out.
