The Orchard Field Glamping Pods at Mains Farm

We have been visiting Mains Farm for many years now and really love the area, the site and the ever helpful Robert and Julie. Nothing is too much trouble for them - even a lift to the pub! The Eden Valley as a location is quite superb of course with the picturesque village of Kirkoswald on your doorstep and the Settle to Carlisle Railway across the valley at Lazonby. Great choice of pubs nearby serving excellent food, useful facilities such as the CooP in Lazonby and its only a short hop to Penrith for some serious shopping. You are really only a short hop from Keswick and the Norh Lakes but that short distance makes the Eden Valley so much more peaceful, and beatiful in my view. Mains Farm is a great camp site with all the facilities you could wish for. We have camped and stayed in the pods on numerous occasions and can thoroghly recommend the private bathroom option. We can't wait until our next trip and hope to be at the next music festival in 2021, Covid permitting of course.

Great site, we stayed in a camping pod, very clean and ready on arrival. Great value for money. Owners very friendly

We went with friends and all had a pod each to stay in. Owners very friendly and nice. Planned to go for a walk to Lacy’s caves but we all decided to stay in the local pub down the road instead.

Planned to go for a walk to Lacy’s caves but we all decided to stay in the local pub down the road instead. Site was good not a great deal to do unless you plan a day out but for the night it was perfect. We all agreed we would come back again as we really enjoyed bbq and fire pit sitting out in the evening.

We stopped in the glamping pods for 3 nights and what a lovely place. Richard and Julie cannot do enough for you, very friendly and helpful. The wash facilities are one of the best I have been too, very good showers, very clean. Location is brilliant if you like to go... We stopped in the glamping pods for 3 nights and what a lovely place. Richard and Julie cannot do enough for you, very friendly and helpful. The wash facilities are one of the best I have been too, very good showers, very clean. Location is brilliant if you like to go walking to ullswater, Keswick and surrounding areas. Local pub nearby. Cannot fault this place loved every minute of it.

We really loved our one night stay here in a pod , the owners and staff are just lovely, friendly and wecoming. Nicely spaced out areas unlike some parks where your too overcrowded , facilities were so clean and kept on top of all day , set in a beautiful area of the country , accessible to lakes and Dales , kirkoswald is a gorgeous quaint little village with friendly locals and great pub food in the feathers , pie was best we've ever had !! All in all highly recommend .

great place

We were greeted with a huge dog poo outside our pod and that wasn't the end of the poo....i covered it over and told our two children not to go near it as we unpacked our car from a long journey.

We were greeted with a huge dog poo outside our pod and that wasn't the end of the poo....i covered it over and told our two children not to go near it as we unpacked our car from a long journey. I dont have dogs for that reason so i had no means of picking it up and im not the type to complain or make a fuss. Our stay was great Rob was very helpful and friendly and making sure we were comfortable, even gave us a mattress when our airbed went down. On our last day on our way home. I got a call from an unknown number. It was JULIE who owns the camp.. her words were " DID YOU KNOW, ONE OF YOUR CHILDREN HAD A POO OUTSIDE AND YOU HAVE LEFT IT THERE" . Gobsmacked wouldn't even be the best description, there were toilets a two second walk away and my children are old enough to speak and use the toilet and have obviously been brought up with manners and respect. Unlike the dogs they allow on site. Her first assumption was my children and my parenting skills. I have never felt so judged in my whole entire life. I emailed Julie and told her the situation after I got home n felt so upset about it and they didn't even care to reply and apologise. After speaking to guests with such tone and making such an accusation with no evidence. The least you would expect would be an apology. I was ready to pass on great things about this camp but this is what i was left with.

Pods were adequate for 2 nights. Although was hoping to have wifi as stated on the website.

We are pleased you enjoyed your stay at Mains Farm. This year we put in our 3rd Wi Fi Hub - there are Hot Spots and poor spots. I do wish you had metioned this and we could have poited them out -Please be assured we do have Wi Fi.

Stayed in a camping pod; beautiful, clean and lovely! Extremely helpful staff (owner) - couldn’t do enough during the stay. Great value for money. Such a lovely location too. Will definitely be returning!

Booked via Pitch Up as last minute chance for a few nights away. Selected due to availability of pod(weather forecast was not great to chose this over our tent!).

Selected due to availability of pod(weather forecast was not great to chose this over our tent!). Good local facilities (pool, pub, shop). Site seemed ideal for us - good clean facilities, river, lots of space for children! Warm welcome on arrival, pod clean dry and warm, kids straight off to play on the field (despite the rain!) Facilities clean - despite the mud (so must have been a challenge!). Helpful staff - great fire pit! We’d definitely return!
