About The Pods at Airhouses

Set at 1,000 feet, this scenic site enjoys panoramic views of the Lammermuir Hills and is all about peace and quiet. However, it is also conveniently just a 40 minute drive from Edinburgh but seems millions of miles away! Each of the modern, unique pods sleeps up to two adults with a cosy double bed made up for your arrival. Suitable for stays all year round, each also features underfloor heating and an infrared wall heater, with Hawthorn even having air conditioning. You will also have all of the mod-cons including WiFi, a Smart TV by the bed, mood lighting, a sound system and even a tablet to control the lighting, blinds and heating! The pods both have an ensuite with a loo, small washbasin, a heated towel rail just outside and an electric shower. Hand and bath towels, robes, slippers, a hairdryer, toiletries and towels for the hot tub are all provided so you can travel light! For all of your cooking needs, each pod has its own kitchen area. The Rowan Pod has a galley-style kitchen with a small sink, fridge, kettle and toaster. Outside is the BBQ hut and an additional fridge with a small freezer section and a microwave. The Hawthorn Pod has a microwave oven, two induction hobs and a little sink. Pans, a kettle, toaster and a fridge are provided, with an extra fridge with a small freezer box in a hut outside. To make the most of the glorious views, the pods includ a private heated hot tub outside as well as an EV charging point. The Hawthorn Pod also has a charcoal BBQ outside, along with a small fire pit area. There is a communal hut with a washing machine, available April to October, and room for drying wet coats and boots, book and games, sun loungers and parasols. Enjoy the surrounding farmland with all its wildlife. Spot badgers, owls, deer, squirrels, hawks, kestrels, and an abundance of wild birds. Enjoy the safe farm walks, attempt the treasure trail which takes you on a circular route through the village of Oxton, use the jogging trails, and meet the pigs, goats, Shetland ponies, sheep, donkeys and pygmy goats too. For a tasty dinner onsite, you can also enjoy ready meals from the wee onsite farm shop. To truly unwind, you can even have your own personalised spa treatment! Dogs can join you for your stay too, with up to one allowed per pod. A pet water bowl, food bowl and a dog towel will also be supplied for your stay so they are fully catered for.

A note from the site themselves...

Our two award winning wee pods were built at Roslin near Edinburgh. They are beautifully made, very eco friendly but at the same time very high tech. Both pods have been positioned to take advantage of the stunning views across to the Lammermuir Hills and we would like you to unwind and enjoy the peace and quiet of our working farm.

By arrangement, you can enjoy a meet and greet with the farm animals. Join Damian on his morning feeding rounds and learn all about our friendly animals.

We hope to welcome you soon, Carol and the team
