  • Luxurious Lake District glamping pods between Penrith and Keswick
  • Close to the Coast to Coast cycle route; Ullswater 20 minutes' drive
  • Part of a peaceful family farm with stunning views of Blencathra
Climbing Blencathra is a wonderful Lake District experience, with routes suitable for various abilities (from a relatively straightforward path to a more challenging route that involves scrambling along the ominously named Sharp Edge…) Then again, putting your feet up, pouring a glass of something and looking up at the 828-metre mountain from below is also a wonderful experience – and something that should certainly be on the cards when you stay at Ewe Love Camping Pods. These luxurious pods in the Cumbria countryside are about halfway between Penrith and Keswick, with fabulous views up to Blencathra and easy access to all the trails of the North Lakes (and the Coast to Coast cycle trail, if you're up for more of a challenge). As well as being highly scenic, this setting is peaceful indeed, as the glamping site is part of a family farm where your neighbours will be the resident Fell sheep and suckler cows and the views take in flower-filled meadows and a section of wildlife-filled Mosedale Beck. The lovely pods were made locally in Cumbria, and have been set up to make the most of those stunning views – with a picnic table and barbecue provided for your outdoor meals and drinks. Inside, there’s a double bed, an ensuite bathroom and a kitchen area with fridge, microwave, coffee maker and kettle. Everything is kept cosy by the underfloor heating, and the lockable French doors should make sure you're safe and secure.

Liked Stunning views, peaceful, and perfect to recharge after a days hiking.

Disliked Sofa bed was a bit hard in places a thicker mattress topper would have helped, no proper pillows provided so having to use the cushions and only one blanket between 2 wasn’t great.

Camping pod

Liked - great location, a 10 minute drive off the main road but also remote enough to be quiet and peaceful.
- facilities brilliant, the cabins were immaculate, clean, had every essential you needed (shower, fridge, etc).
- a small calm site, there were only 3 pods, so it didn't feel too busy or crowded.
- the outdoor seating/BBQ was nice to have on hand.
- nice views from the pods.
- farm animals, sheep and two gorgeous white horses.
- very easy to check in and out, no hassle at all.

Disliked - very very warm in the summer, we had to have the windows and door open as the pods did get very hot, unfortunately this did allow lots of flies to get in at night, perhaps a fan, or even some sort of netting to have over the doors would help with cooling?

Camping pod

Liked LOVE !! When saw pictures on line it looked beautiful, when I arrived it looked even better than the pictures . The place is easy to get to ( long windy roads but beautiful scenery ) the pod we stayed in ( yan) was clean and very well kept . Has everything you can need . Underfloor heating , shower and toilet were very clean and powerful , very hot water , bed was very warm and comfortable. Has a kettle , microwave and small fridge , sink and utensils, bbq , table and chairs , L shape sofa which pulls out to make another bed . Seating on the decking . The way the pods are set out is great as your not overlooked and have complete privacy, even when your on the porch . Only a small drive away from Keswick or Penrith . We enjoyed the drive out to get food . Tried the white horse the fist night then went to Keswick on the second night . Parking for the cars is only a minute walk . Even if it rains which it did , it does not spoil it . I will be returning often here we absolutely loved it . ( bring towels and milk ) there are a few teas and coffee sachets but if you like a few cups a day you will need more . Which we brought anyway as we didn’t think there would be any so that was a lovely touch . Toilet roll , bedding , washing up liquid , soap , cups etc are provided 😊

Camping pod

Liked The location was gorgeous & very peaceful with views of blencathra & surroundings mountains. Bed & sofa bed very spacious & comfortable. Kitchen was practical & useable. Bathroom was clean & useable.

Disliked The bathroom could have done with hooks & a small shelf as it was small so nowhere to put anything. Otherwise it served It's purpose.

Camping pod

Liked Great little gem of a find!
This pod is absolutely beautiful, in a great location close to Keswick and all the fells but far enough away to be peaceful and relaxing after a day in the fells. Especially liked the fact there is no tv so you just relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

Everything has been thought about from bedding, to proper cups, plates, bread board, even a coffee maker and milk frother for coffee lovers. l especially loved the little touches like biscuits, tea / coffee and even some hot chocolate sachets.

Bed is really comfortable as is the sofa, prefect to rest weary body after a good days walking.

Didn’t get to sit outside annd enjoy the bbq or fire pit on this occasion but they are an added bonus.

Will definitely be back to enjoy this fabulous little cabin in the future.

Disliked Some signs off the main road and subsequent smaller roads would be good, drove past the turning off the smaller road initially as though it was just a drive way to the house you can see.
