Wensleydale Glamping Pods

Wensleydale Glamping is right outside the Yorkshire Dales National Park, so walkers and cyclists will be in their element with plenty of countryside to cover. There’s an OS map in your pod, and a boot washing point and storage box on site, so it’s a cinch to get treks underway. If you’d prefer to roam on wheels, Redmire is on the 130-mile Yorkshire Dales Cycleway, which ticks off most of the major dales. Combine explores with local sights, including Redmire Force waterfall, Aysgarth Falls and the 14th-century Bolton Castle (all within 10 minutes’ drive). Slightly further afield, an amble around the ruins of Jervaulx Abbey (20 minutes) is another fine choice, and there’s a tearoom on site for a little treat, too. For kid-friendly trips, take a ride on Wensleydale Railway (five minutes), or get to grips with The Forbidden Corner’s labyrinth of tunnels, chambers and follies among a four-acre garden (20 minutes). And a visit to Wensleydale should really involve a stop at Wensleydale Creamery (half an hour) for cheese-making demonstrations, the viewing gallery and museum… and a taste of the good stuff, obviously.
