We're delighted to introduce our new Pod Village - The Hive. You can now enjoy a breakaway in one of our 9 heated pods which are nestled in our woodland area here at Ghyll Head. The opportunities are endless here in the stunning Lake District.
Just a stones throw away from Lake Windermere and with an amazing array of fabulous walking and mountain-biking routes on the door step our Pods are a great base to allow you to explore this superb part of the country.
Our location is second to none with Bowness-on-Windermere just three miles away with its bustling bars, restaurants and shops should you want to mix it up.
Our accessible pods are a great alternative to traditional camping - great for those not overly confident at pitching a tent! This self-catered pod is ideal for a couple or family and can sleep up to 5 people. This pod also happens to be one of our pet friendly accommodations so feel free to bring one well-behaved pet with you. We ask that dog owners do not let their dogs jump onto the beds as the mattresses protection is easily damaged by sharp claws.
Each camping pod has comfy single beds with mattresses, under bed heating and 2 plug sockets and 2 x 5v USB charging points. LED lighting is on hand to light up the pod in the evenings and a lockable door adds security to your getaway.
Each pod is equipped with a private picnic bench for sitting or dining during your stay and parking within the site adds further convenience for guests.
All holidaymakers will need to bring their own bedding or sleeping bags with them and the mattresses take a standard 3ft sheet.
Our camping pods are located in their own woodland area in which you can relax and enjoy the peaceful surroundings. Please note that we are unable to offer access to Activities to Pod Village bookings. These are available only to our education residential visits.
Toilet and shower facilities are available within The Pod Village, just a short walk away from the accommodation.
You can prepare your own food in our well equipped kitchen area. You'll find a microwave, fridge, freezer (Please label & date any food left in there), a kettle and a toaster with our compliments. We ask that stoves are not used inside the building however the area adjacent to the wash-up area has tables that can be used to seat stoves (not BBQs). Guests can use our outside sinks for dish washing.
Within The Hive Pod Village we have The Buzz, our Community Room which is also available to Pod visitors to enjoy if

L Ham - Stayed with family, Apr 2023

We stayed for 2 nights over the back holiday weekend. The rooms were great. The mattresses were comfy and there was lots of space for storage under the beds so it didn't feel cramped for a family of five + dog, but then we spent a lot of time outdoors. The campfire area was great, we had a lot of fun up there both evenings. The kitchen/toilet block was really clean and very warm which was lovely, especially when it was raining. There was a huge modern fridge-freezer, kettle, microwave and toaster which made things a lot easier when cooking. Our kids loved the games room too! One thing I would recommend is taking a dustpan and brush. The floor in our room got dirty pretty quick, even though we took our shoes off before going in. One thing that I loved about the stay was that it's small scale, no queues to use the loo, no queues to use the shower or kitchen, would definitely recommend it.
