1 bedroom camping pod (hot tub)
Liked: Fantastic pod with great amenities and wonderful hosts who were happy to help make our stay as memorable as possible. The Pods by the Stream is a great holiday for those looking to experience the Lakes from a comfortable clamping experience. The hot tub is fantastic with the hosts offering to have it to temperature both on arrival and on return each day during the stay, the animals on the farm are adorable and the panoramic views from the location are stunning. I would highly recommend
Disliked: My only qualm with the pod was the lack of storage for clothing/toiletries however I understand that this is a small pod and this would be difficult to facilitate.

From the manager: Thank you so much for the lovely review. We are so glad you enjoyed your anniversary stay. It was a pleasure to have you here x We are so sorry you were unable to utilise the under bed storage for your clothing/toiletries. If we had been made aware of this we would have been able to come over and show you how this works/where it lifted up. We will endeavour to put this information in our welcome email so that other guests don't have the same issues x

Liked: Loved the homemade basket full of local goodies, things you may forget about such as milk etc. Lovely stay at the Pods by the Stream, couldn’t recommend enough. The host was lovely, replied very quickly and ensured the hot tub was warmed for us on return :) will defiantly be returning.

Liked: Absolutely beautiful place. The pictures really don’t do it justice. We loved every minute here. The pod was Immaculate, the hot tub was warm on arrival, and there was a welcome pack with snacks and a bottle of Prosecco. There were Birthday cupcakes, and balloons and banners as I’d mentioned when booking it was my partners birthday which was a lovely touch. The hosts are amazing, only ever a text away and nothing was too much trouble. We can’t wait to come back

Liked: Our stay was excellent, from a beautiful pod to amazing views! The pod is located in a private area and not too far from a local town. The owners were amazing with making sure we had a lovely stay, even made sure our hot tub was ready for us when we had a day away. Would definitely come back and recommend this place to others, thank you for having us!
Disliked: Nothing at all

1 bedroom camping pod (hot tub)
Liked: We loved the position of the pod behind the farm house and landscape surrounding us. our hosts were both welcoming and accommodating. Emma is very friendly, very approachable and made us feel very welcome through out our stay. The Pod and facilities are all well maintained and provided a comfortable and relaxing stay. The children loved interacting with the 4 sheep in the field adjacent to the Pod and the freedom to explore. Loved arriving to find a welcome basket of treats and prosecco, and complimentary bath robes and slippers. As I had booked the Pod to celebrate one of my daughter’s birthdays Emma had put up a birthday banner and left celebratory buns and balloons for her on arrival. The guest information has plenty of pointers on places to visit locally and we were lucky enough to be visiting on a weekend of a local country show which we spent a full day at, Emma was thoughtful enough to heat the hot tub in advance of us returning in the evening making it ready for us to get straight into when we returned. All in all we had a fabulous stay and will definitely be booking again !
Disliked: Absolutely nothing !

Liked: Hot tub Scenery Close to motorway link
Disliked: Still quite noisy with been near main road, I would recommend swapping pod round 180 degrees, I think then it would be fine

From the manager: Thank you for your review. Unfortunately due to an issue on the A66 traffic was diverted which caused a lot or excessive bank holiday traffic along the road. This is not normal for our road. As you can see 92% of our pitchup guests state ' peaceful' as their main comment when staying here. In the 3 years we have been open & over 600+ guests you are the ONLY guests to comment on road noise. Unfortunately road closures/accidents/diverted traffic are beyond our control. However you will note that as of 8pm that day the road reopened and traffic became minimal as video footage taken after your social media comment can prove at 8pm, 9pm, 10pm & the next morning 7am & 8am too. However as a small family run site we were extremely upset that despite us going out of our way to ensure your hot tub was heated for your arrival, messaging to let you know we would heat your Hot Tub for your return (which i can guarantee other sites do not do and if they did there would be a charge whereas we are free) & the complimentary welcome hamper which includes prosecco you have marked us down for customer service & felt it necessary to make a derogatory comment on our social media platforms ....whilst still checked in! We pride ourselves on looking after our guests & ensuring their stay in as perfect as possible. We even stop all farm work after 7pm on the off chance the make any noise.
Excellent site, it was very clean, the family were so friendly.
