Surrounded by the stunning North Pennies with views of Langley Dam
Whether you are a family with young children, a young couple wanting a romantic break or an older couple looking for a base to explore the historic sites and fabulous scenery of the North, Langley Dam Glamping is the place for you. Your setting is on the side of Langley Dam overlooking the popular local fly fishery. Around you will be mature trees on a working mixed farm. Just on the edge of the North Pennines, the best section of Hadrian's Wall is only 5 miles north of the glamping site. The pod cabins have been designed and built inspired by the local upturned clinker boats found along the Northumbrian Coast. They offer a touch of luxury while still being in close contact with the great outdoors. A private decked area is provided outside each cabin, as well as a gravelled fire pit area. Fire pits include grills, tripods and cooking bowls and are provided for all - allowing you to cook over an open fire and then enjoy the evening with the glorious views and amazing dark skies. When you're peckish, the kitchenette is well equipped with fridge, double hob and oven with a grill. A toaster and kettle are also provided. There is a smart TV with a DVD player in all cabins too, so that you can unwind and watch a movie. Heating is provided by means of an electric heater. Sockets and USB charging points are available in all cabins, and there are bluetooth speakers too. Your night time comfort is ensured by providing proper mattresses on all the fixed king size beds. The sofa beds are also king-size and have luxury mattresses. In three of the cabins (Wheatley's, Blackcleugh and Bare Bones) there is also a drop down bunk which is suitable for younger children. Quality bedding and towels are provided with the fully furnished rental option. Humbleton has been designed to allow full disabled access. Well behaved dogs are welcome but there are strictly pet free pod cabins for allergy sufferers too - The Wonneys and Bare Bones. Wheatley's Cabin is closest to the play area, and so may suit families with little ones best. Eco-commitments are very important to this site - and only eco-friendly cleaning products are used to service and maintain the cabins and laundry.
Langley Dam Glamping is open all year round.
