A note from the site themselves...

The farm and derelict farmhouse was bought in 2017 and the years since then have been spent renovating buildings and taking the land back from the brambles and nettles that swamped the fields.

The pod field has a unique atmosphere and the vision to build pods and share the setting with others is one that has now been reached . It is fantastic that people seem to enjoy the setting as much as we do.

Camping Pod - The Den Ensuite Glamping Pod with Hot Tub (Dog Friendly)Aug 2024

Can't fault this experience! Everything you could need in the pod and clean. Much easier than camping whilst also feeling like a more luxury break away! Lovely quiet site with only 2 pods and key safe on arrival, and numbers for owners if needed…but left to just enjoy the stay which is what we wanted. In a very peaceful location but lots around the area and supermarket 5 minutes away. Will definitely look to return when we can!

Amazing

Camping Pod - The Roost Ensuite Glamping Pod with Hot Tub (Dog Friendly)Aug 2024

Absolutely amazing! I booked this for my partner's 30th birthday and I'm so glad I did. From the moment I booked, Barbara was there if I had any questions, she also took in a delivery for us, which was really nice of her. The pod was amazing and the hot tub was brilliant. It was so peaceful and quiet, we loved every minute. We will definitely be back.
