Camping Pod - Ensuite Glamping PodsJul 2024

Borrowdale glamping is an absolute gem. Luxurious "camping" in the most beautiful of surroundings. Myself and nine year old daughter had the most wonderful time, and I can't recommend it enough. We will be back for sure, no question 😊

Excellent

Camping Pod - Ensuite Glamping PodsJun 2024

Amazing location, close enough to Keswick but with the feel of being much more secluded. Compact pod, but well furnished to make use of the space. Facilities are excellent. The bathroom is surprisingly spacious and shower is excellent considering you're in a pod. Outside decking area is lovely with outstanding views. There is no Wi-Fi which can be difficult considering the mobile reception is poor. However, in general, you are not staying here to go on your device but Wi-Fi would be a great addition. Right next to the river, the views are outstanding. Overall, a lovely place to stay and visit, and would definitely go back.
