One of three identical glamping pods situated on a farm in the heart of the Lake District National Park. The farm is positioned atop a hill with fabulous views in all directions, including views of Blencathra, one of the Lake District's most renowned peaks and the Pennines.

The modern insulated Pods have been installed to maximise the views, whether inside or outside, on the wooden decking. Inside, the pod has been furnished with quality items, including comfy sofas, a king-size double bed and a modern kitchen area with an electric hob. You'll have no trouble cooking a meal for two on the nights you're not visiting the local eateries in Keswick, Pooley Bridge or, indeed, Penrith, all just a short drive away.

The shower room is spacious. There's no bath; instead, a large shower cubicle with a main-plumbed rain shower head and towels are provided for guests.

In the living area of the pod, you have a comfy L-shaped sofa and a wall-mounted Freesat TV. If you fancy a few tunes, you'll love the built-in Bluetooth music system and the colour-changing LED lighting!

Coast2Coast Accommodation
The Pods are ideally situated on the C2C cycle route. Secure bicycle storage is available, and one-night stays are allowed, so please look no further if you're looking for coast2coast accommodation on the first leg of the journey!

Had the most amazing weekend at Whitbarrow Farm. The pod was brilliant with everything you could ever need. Good heating and a cosy bed. The Bluetooth sound system was great for connecting to Spotify. Will 100% be visiting again. Thank you for a perfect Easter weekend.

The pod was excellent and everything was very height spec, as well as being spotlessly clean.

First time glamping and had the perfect time. Everything you could want in the pod. Heating, large cosy bed, pull out sofa bed for movie nights, full kitchen, and a large shower room. Excellent stay and will definitely go again.

Just returned from a beautiful stay. We were so impressed with how clean, modern, cozy and well equipped the pod was and cannot wait to return. Met the owner who came to offer us water on the day of us leaving as the water had cut off in the entire village. She was lovely and was obviously going out of her way to make sure it didn't affect our stay. So pleasedwe found this gem with stunning views across the mountains. Friendly pub less than 10 minutes walk away too and good location for walks at ullswater, helvellyn and catbells. Just amazing! Thank you
