Camping pods
Outdoor breaks in cumbria
Pods area

Can't decide whether to stay in England or Scotland? This small-scale pub glamping site in the far north of Cumbria could be a good compromise. Located on the southern side of the river Esk, here you can sleep in England and wake up to scenic views over the Scottish Southern Uplands on the other side of the water. These pods come equipped with comfy beds, with all bedding included. In addition, two chairs, a coffee table, battery-operated lights and outdoor decking with chairs and tables are provided, making Metal Bridge Pods an excellent and self-contained spot to stay for couples on the start of a cross-border road trip (or as a base for day trips in both countries). Other handy features included diesel-powered heaters to keep you toasty at night and chargers to make sure your phone is never low on juice. Toilets are shared in a smart loo block, with free showers available in a well-maintained bathroom inside the pub. The pub is just across the field for refreshing drinks and tasty food, with relaxing views over the water available if you're sitting in the restaurant area. Metal Bridge's closest amenities are in Scotland, with Gretna's shops, pubs and takeaways an easy five-minute drive away over the river. Carlisle (20 minutes' drive) is also close by, though, and Newcastle (just over an hour) is surprisingly easy to reach too if you fancy a day out to a bigger city.

O que dizem os clientes

Hóspedes descrevem este como um local deslumbrante e tranquilo, com pods de glamping acolhedores e bem apresentados, oferecendo vistas deslumbrantes. A equipa é frequentemente elogiada por ser simpática e prestável. O restaurante local serve comida deliciosa a bom preço. Embora alguns mencionem casas de banho básicas e ruído ocasional da autoestrada, muitos não consideraram um problema significativo. Alguns hóspedes experienciaram ruído excessivo de aquecedores a diesel e notaram preocupações de limpeza nas casas de banho, com a gerência a afirmar que esta informação foi fornecida antes da chegada e que os problemas poderiam ter sido resolvidos se tivessem sido notificados.

Gostou Clean inside. Good for overnight stay close to the M6. The cost was fair and we had a lovely evening meal at the pub. All in good value for money.

Gostou The pod was beautiful the views are gorgeous. The staff are so friendly and helpful! Food was absolutely delicious in the restaurant.

Não gostou Only thing that was slightly disliked was how loud the diesel heater is, couldn't really have it on late at night as was very loud outside the pod too! But definitely does not damper the place.

Cápsula de campismo (casal)

Gostou We recently stayed in the Metal Bridge glamping pods and had such a lovely experience. The pods were warm, cosy, and very well presented, with everything clean and thoughtfully set up on arrival. They even have solar power, which was great for charging phones and watching a bit of TV in the evening.
We didn’t need to use the diesel heater at all, as the pod stayed perfectly warm—even overnight. It rained on our second day, but we stayed dry, snug, and comfortable the whole time, which really added to the relaxing feel of the stay.
The toilet block is quite basic, but it’s clean and has everything you need for a short stopover. The pub on site was a real highlight—fantastic food at very good value for money.
We’d seen a few comments about motorway noise before arriving, but honestly, we hardly noticed anything. Aside from the occasional train passing, which didn’t disturb us at all, it was peaceful enough that we slept right through until 9am. There can be a slight smell of asphalt at times due to a nearby plant, but it comes and goes with the wind and is completely out of the owners’ control—it certainly didn’t spoil our trip.
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. Another big bonus for us is that it’s dog-friendly. We have two small dogs, and it’s often difficult to find places that welcome pets and also offer somewhere to eat and drink with them—this place ticks all the boxes.
Overall, it’s a little gem and well worth a visit. We’d highly recommend it and would happily stay again!

Não gostou Toilet block just needs a lick of paint but this didn’t spoil our trip in the slightest.

Gostou They looked lovely on the advert

Não gostou I never leave negative reviews but I don't want anyone to be in the same position I was. Couldn't find showers, toilets were dirty on arrival and no toilet roll. The noise from the motorway was horrendous, all night lorries beeping and there is possibly a construction site nearby as the sound of heavy machinery did not stop until 10pm. The windows may as well have been cling film. I was desperate to love these as a stopover on the journey up to Scotland but I was almost too tired to complete the journey the next day and my little girl only got max 4hrs sleep

Do gestor: Hello, thank you for your feedback.

The location of the showers were on the check in information that was sent to you before your arrival. There is also 2 phone numbers that you could call if you were unhappy about anything.

We apologise for the noise on the M6, unfortunately they were doing some resurfacing work and this was completely out of our control. We were never told that the work would be taking place.

Had you let us know about the noise we could’ve provided you with accommodation in the pub instead.

Apologies again however we do feel like putting the lowest score on all categories is a little unfair considering the main problem was not our fault and we were never made aware, therefore we never had the opportunity rectify it.

Gostou Too much bad smell, and I couldn’t sleep at all. The diesel heaters were making too much noise, which gave me a headache. Poor maintenance, nobody was there to help, and I couldn’t even find the showers properly. The toilets were dirty and not clean at all. Totally disappointed with this place. I would not recommend it to anyone.

Do gestor: Hello. Sorry for your experience.

Everything in the pod is advertised. “Nobody was there to help”. You got a check in message. Which you read. Stating 2 phone numbers you could call. The location of the showers are also on the check in text.

Sorry you were disappointed but there was so much information sent to you. You could’ve told us and it could have been fixed.

Atrações locais

It's a five-minute drive to the retail park at Gretna Green, where you can also whisk your beloved away to the Anvil Hall, a traditional marriage spot for eloping couples. Heading west through the green countryside of Annandale, you might like to take a trip to Caerlaverock Castle (35 minutes), an impressive triangular fortress from the 13th century that's surrounded by a moat. To discover history and heritage sites on the English side of the river Esk, you could explore Carlisle Castle (20 minutes) or Hadrian's Wall (half an hour), where there are several Roman forts you can visit. Alternatively, keep going south to see the Lake District National Park – Ullswater, the nearest lake, is about 40 minutes from base. If you don't mind a bit longer in the car, head to New Lanark (an hour), a World Heritage Site with historic industrial buildings where you can take spectacular walks out to the Falls of Lanark. Alternatively, head to Newcastle city centre (an hour and 10 minutes) to discover Tyneside's shopping and hospitality.
