Visitors to the Norwich and Norfolk festival in May are being invited to spend the night suspended between trees in a range of bizarrely shaped contraptions.
Designs include a floating wooden airship, a mechanical lotus flower that opens up so each guest can sleep in a different petal, and a Pandora's box house made entirely of recycled rubbish.
Each pod can house between two and six people – but those without a head for heights may wish to approach with caution. Stays in some of the pod involve "perilous" climbs into the upper branches of trees; while others are designed to rock or sway.
Promoters describe the so-called "AirHotel" as a hotel "mixing circus, performance and installation with real life camping."
The AirHotel project is an idea from Time Circus, a collection of Belgian artists, and according to promoters the concept is "completely unknown in this country" until now.
Pods cost from £35 per person, and organisers said there is still limited availability.
The festival runs from May 11 to 26. To book a stay in one of the pods, call 01603 766400. For more details visit the Norfolk and Norwich Festival Website (nnfestival.org.uk).
