I wondered that too. Not long after I snapped this it featured on our local TV. The house that the garden belongs to is a bed and breakfast place and the helicopter has been converted into an extra room. I can't find that, but I did find this:

Reminds me of a crane in the harbour here that serves as a hotel. And I have a shot of that.

I have no idea where I could post it on the board, so I uploaded the pic to the gallery. It's here.

Yes, the structure behind the helicopter contains a shower and a toilet.

LOL, no, look closer. The structure up front is a spiral stairs.
I actually had shots of people leaving, with bags and all, but didn't keep those.

Yep. I'm on a big screen now, so I can see it.
