  • Luxurious Lake District glamping pods between Penrith and Keswick
  • Close to the Coast to Coast cycle route; Ullswater 20 minutes' drive
  • Part of a peaceful family farm with stunning views of Blencathra
Climbing Blencathra is a wonderful Lake District experience, with routes suitable for various abilities (from a relatively straightforward path to a more challenging route that involves scrambling along the ominously named Sharp Edge…) Then again, putting your feet up, pouring a glass of something and looking up at the 828-metre mountain from below is also a wonderful experience – and something that should certainly be on the cards when you stay at Ewe Love Camping Pods. These luxurious pods in the Cumbria countryside are about halfway between Penrith and Keswick, with fabulous views up to Blencathra and easy access to all the trails of the North Lakes (and the Coast to Coast cycle trail, if you're up for more of a challenge). As well as being highly scenic, this setting is peaceful indeed, as the glamping site is part of a family farm where your neighbours will be the resident Fell sheep and suckler cows and the views take in flower-filled meadows and a section of wildlife-filled Mosedale Beck. The lovely pods were made locally in Cumbria, and have been set up to make the most of those stunning views – with a picnic table and barbecue provided for your outdoor meals and drinks. Inside, there’s a double bed, an ensuite bathroom and a kitchen area with fridge, microwave, coffee maker and kettle. Everything is kept cosy by the underfloor heating, and the lockable French doors should make sure you're safe and secure.

Lovely peaceful spot with cosy, spotless pods, great views & seclusion. Well-equipped with en-suites, underfloor heating & nice touches. Beauty and local access praised. Lacking towels, suggest mattress topper, need better signage.

Camping pod

Liked We loved the location, well equipped kitchenette, the lovely way the pod is decorated and furnished. It was tidy and clean. Underfloor heating kept it warm. Very peaceful.

Disliked We feel it is only big enough for 2 people. With 3 of us it was a squash. If it had a 2 seater sofa instead there would be room for a clothes airer (there is nowhere to hang wet walking clothes). We couldn’t have the door or window open because a cat kept trying to get in. Towels are not provided and there is nowhere to hang towels. Remember to take the toilet paper out of the wet room when you’re showering!

Camping pod

Liked The pods were clean and the showers and heating were lovely and warm! The views here are stunning and the area is so peaceful!

Disliked We did ask to bring our pet and was slightly disappointed that we couldnt and we didn’t really understand why as the area was completely secluded. There was a few things we felt the pods could benefit from- a bin, dish cloth, additional pillows, small tv? But everything else was lovely and we enjoyed our visit.

Liked The bed was clean and comfortable. We liked the outside seating options.
Views are of course stunning.

Disliked Could provide a small electric hot plate. Huts get a little hot when the sun is out during the day.

Camping pod

Liked Lovely location looking out over Blencathra. Quiet and peaceful but only a couple of miles from the A66. Pod had all modern conveniences, including fire pit and bbq provided outside, in addition to kettle/microwave. Loads of seating options indoors and out. Just a lovely short break.

Disliked Could probably do with a fly net of some descriptions inside the double doors.. lots of flies around at the moment and impossible to keep them out.
