  • 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.

Camping pod

Liked: Really nice pod with a great setting. Underfloor heating was good. Nicely set up with as much as you could fit in a small space. Good spot for peace and quiet with access to shops and pubs and local attractions all within 20 minutes drive or so.

Disliked: Not the pods fault but it would have been perfect in nice weather as cooking needed to be done outside

Camping pod

Liked: The pod was beautiful and had lots of charm. The views were stunning, overlooking the peaks. It was well kitted out for a little pod. It had a kettle, toaster, even a coffee machine. We were very impressed. It was lovely and clean and you could tell they are well looked after. We had a great time staying here and would absolutely come back again.
