Room review: Staying in the 'Spaceship', Warrington
If you want to go boldly where few have stayed before - the coastal settlement of Warrington may just be your ticket to an out-of-this world experience.
Known locally as 'The Spaceship', this iconic Futuro home has been based in the Otago township, since 1975. Despite initial fears that this a friendly alien may buy the home when it was put on the market in 2017, that invasion did not eventuate.
Instead the property was sold to a Kiwi working in Australia, and has been listed for $83 a night on Airbnb since March.
