Inside the UFO-themed pod you can spend the night for out of this world experience

It's out of this world - quite literally.

A UFO-themed spaceship pod has become one of the UK's most sought after overnight stays.

Complete with all manner of space gadgets and gizmos, the pod offers a totally unique getaway, 2Chill reports.

And it even features its own crater hole and laser display.

It's held up by stilts and the entrance door drops down from its hinges via the use of a remote control to reveal steps in the style of a classic spaceship.

It's just like what you've seen in the movies.

Located in Redberth, Pembrokeshire, the UFO is just one of many unusual holiday homes at Apple Camping.

You can also stay in a jet, an airbus, a Pacman dome, as well as various yurts and tents.

At night the outside of the craft is lit up by lasers with a smoke machine available on request to give a full lunar landing experience.

There is also a monitor for gaming, with classic 80s games like Space Invaders and Defender.

The interior features eight windows which offer a 360 degree view of the outside, a double bed and two singles, a kitchen area with hobs, a sink, a kettle, a toaster and a fridge.

All the furniture continues the futuristic theme, exactly as you would imagine inside a real UFO as a dome on top offers a perfect opportunity for stargazing.

On the Apple Camping Instagram account, one post says the campsite allows “friends and loved ones to escape from the lunacy of our silly, silly planet".

The UFO, along with the other accommodations on the campsite, was built from recycled materials with the shells of the jet and airbus also saved from the scrap heap.

Speaking in a YouTube video for Going Green, owner Toby Rhys Davis said the location originated as a cow field but he realised people wanted the weird and wacky, so created glamping opportunities like no other.

He always builds with the environment at the forefront of his mind, and has planted over 1,000 trees on the property.

Toby is currently renovating a submarine shell which will be the next quirky accommodation pod to open on his glamping campsite.
