About the site


Mulino Pods are designed to complement the surroundings and built with quality in mind. Cedar clad, they are fully insulated and eco-powered and heated by the farm's wind turbine. The view from the pods over the valley and Carsington Water is beautiful particularly in the morning - and not just when the sun is shining. Sometimes it's the changing weather patterns that create the most spectacular scenes - especially during autumn and winter. Each of the three glamping pods are nestled into the hawthorn bushes for privacy, overlooking the beautiful Carsington Valley as it drops off towards the hamlet of Atlow. Your only neighbours are the farm sheep which graze in the paddocks and fields around. The pods are cosy and homely inside, with French doors opening out onto the magnificent scenery so that you can fully connect with the surrounding countryside. Damson and Bluebell pods are ideal for couples, with a double bed. They both sleep two guests. The Lavender pod is larger and can accommodate four guests, with a double bed and bunk beds. Outside, all pods have decking, seating and a BBQ area with fire pit. Both the Damson and Lavender pods are pet friendly and well behaved dogs are welcome on the farm. However, the number of dogs is limited to two per pod and the site ask that they are kept on leads at all times, as there are farm animals in the surrounding fields.

Mulino Pods is open all year round.

A note from the site themselves...

A small family run glamp site began in order to share the fantastic view with others. We pride ourselves in providing a small site with just three private pods, a spotless place to stay with hassle free check in and homely comforts for a unique escape in the countryside. Outdoor lovers, couples, hikers, cyclists and dogs are all welcome to experience a place to pause from everyday life.

What a beautiful place. Spotless and the view to die for, all you could hear was the baby lambs, the birds and the odd cow. The weather was fab, which does help. The location was rural and no car noise. We will be back again and will recommend this little gem of a place to everybody x
