The Property
Hare Meadow Pod is one-of-two glamping pods situated on a working farm surrounded by open fields, livestock and fabulous scenery. At 7m long, 3.2m wide with a 1.5m covered porch area, the pod is perfect for families and couples to enjoy.

The wooden decking area with cosy wood burner and outdoor gas cooking facilities really gives you the full benefit of outdoor countryside life with stunning views and plenty of wildlife. On cooler days, the indoor space is lovely and cosy, with excellent insulation and underfloor heating. There are a seating area, breakfast bar and en-suite shower room with a walk-in shower, loo, basin and heated towel rail, so plenty of space to spread out and no need to make up beds every night as both the bunk beds and double bed are fixed and don’t need to be put away.

Things To Note


Hare Meadow Pod can be booked alongside Pheasant Field Pod.
One well-behaved dog is welcome, additional dogs by arrangement. There is a £5.00 per dog per stay charge.
Bed linen and towels are provided, along with complimentary tea, coffee and sugar + essentials.
The farm is a working farm with livestock and machinery, therefore guests must not enter the main farm without the farmer's permission and supervision.
We must insist that dogs are kept on their lead at all times; we do have our own working dogs, but sheep can lose their lambs and become quite ill if they are worried by a dog, so it is imperative.


The Location:
There is so much to see and do in the area. Being on a family-run working farm, the fields are full of animals and wildlife so that you might spot some amazing sights. We regularly see Little owls and Barn owls around the farm, deer, bats and many others and for train fans, the Settle to Carlisle railway line runs along the border of the farm. Although it is a quiet line, it is a regular route for some impressive steam trains, and the glamping pods are the perfect place to view them!

There is a network of public footpaths all around, and we are happy to point you in their direction for some great walks. If you fancy travelling a bit further, the historic city of Lancaster, the Beautiful Lake District and the stunning Yorkshire Dales are all within an easy 30-minute drive.

Lovely weekend. The pod is perfect and fully equipped with everything you need. Danielle the owner was very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. The setting is beautiful and peaceful and I couldn’t recommend Hare Meadow enough. Fantastic 10/10 hence rebooking.

Amazing location for the lakes and North Yorkshire moors. The pods are amazing and the kids loved the bunks. The owners are more than welcoming and allowed the children to have a look round the farm and the lambs. We will be back again

Last minute weekend break and we had a lovely time. The pod was spotless and it had everything we needed, including peace and quiet! The underfloor heating worked a treat making the pod very cosy despite it blowing a gale outside unfortunately it was too windy to make use of the fire pit but we’ll be back to try it again soon.

Ideal for a couple of night getaway with or without kids. We went with two adults, a dog, and a 2 and 5yr old. Everything you need to get away. Kids loved it, there’s a walk down to the river through the farm field. The sky gets really dark so we saw loads of stars. Defo booking to go back for a bit of stargazing. At dusk we sat outside the pod watching the birds and the kids loved it. The pod was very clean and was well stocked.

We had a lovely time stopping in Hare Meadow Pod. Its a shame we couldn't enjoy the outside area more as the weather was so wet but it was a lovely cozy base to return to after a day out. The pod is kitted out to a really high standard and we loved the little touches reflecting the hare theme. We would definitely return again, hopefully when the sun shines!
