About The Church House Inn
Ideally located for the many walks/hikes the Lake District has to offer, The Church House enjoys a stunning setting surrounded by ancient woodland and lush fields home to the resident Herdwick sheep. The site is also home to a luxury glamping pod, situated in its own private setting (away from the touring site here) and sleeping up to four. Whether you're looking for a romantic escape or an idyllic base for your family holiday, this is sure to fit the bill. Equipped with its own ensuite with toilet and shower, the pod also features a four person hot tub and fire pit - a gazebo ensures wet weather won't get in the way of luxury either! Inside you'll be treated to double bed and pull out sofa bed, kitchenette and dining area. All bedding and towels included. Outdoor table and chairs are ready for dining alfresco too. Pets welcome.
The Church House Inn is open all year round.
The glamping pod is equipped with its own ensuite including shower, plus a kitchenette complete with fridge/freezer, microwave oven, hobs, sink as well as cooking utensils. On arrival, there is a welcome pack containing tea, coffee, milk and a bottle of wine.

Stayed this weekend for 2 nights. The owner is so accommodating, he couldn't do enough to ensure we enjoyed our stay. Special touches of wine, biscuits, cereal, tea, coffee and milk - all complementary. The pod was immaculate, would definitely recommend.

Stayed for 2 nights in the pod between Christmas and New Year with our 5 year old & 3 year old. Mark the owner couldn't do enough for us. When we arrived, the hot tub was already heating up and he let us know when it would be ready. The next night, we couldn't work out how to heat the hot tub and straight away he helped us and got it ready for us again. A nice welcome pack that included biscuits, a wine bottle in the fridge and some milk. He told us about a few takeaways and pubs in the area, as well as various walks (we couldn't do any as the weather was awful, which he apologised for). The pod itself was very clean and cosy. We thought we'd have a problem keeping warm inside the pod and getting cold at night, especially as it's middle of winter, but we were wrong. A lovely little heater in the pod kept it nice and toasty. The pod had everything we needed in it. Despite the awful weather, we had such a good time. The campsite is very peaceful, even though it looked busy. We will hopefully be returning again in the future.
Really great stay

The pod itself is very spacious and nicely decorated. The bedsheets were so soft, it was like sleeping in a cloud. Mike, the owner, was so lovely and had already started heating the wood burner hot tub before we arrived, and again the following day when we went out. Stunning views and just an overall amazing stay.

Things to do on site and in the Coniston area
There's plenty of opportunities for soaking up the Lake District scenery, with the Old Man of Coniston in short distance for keen climbers or Coniston Water for those who favour a gentle lakeside stroll.
While at Coniston Water, explore the nearby woodland or take to the water - the Coniston Boating Centre has a selection of paddleboards, canoes, row boats and more available to hire.
Alternatively, cruise over the lake in style on a steam powered yacht! The Steam Yacht Gondola sets off from the Coniston Pier between 1st April - 31st Oct and is run by the National Trust.
Head east of Coniston Water and you'll reach the dense woodland at Grizedale Forest Park. Featuring its very own Go Ape adventure course in the trees plus a selection of adventure walks, sculpture park and mountain bike rental.
And when you're not out exploring the delightful pub here is waiting back at base, serving a delicious range of pub grub and a selection of tipples to quench your thirst.
