About the site

Situated on the edge of the Lake District, the pods are an idyllic base to soak up the Cumbrian countryside that's on your doorstep. Set on a hillside with panoramic open views towards the North Lakes fells, two of the pods onsite are fully equipped with double bed, single bunk (suitable for children up to ten years of age) and sofa bed - perfect for a romantic escape or family holiday. A third pod sleeps four people with a double bed and a double sofa bed and it's slightly more spacious than the other two pods. The living area features dining table, chairs and TV, plus the fully fitted kitchen includes sink, two-ring induction hob, oven with grill, fridge/freezer and microwave - everything you need for cooking up a culinary treat! There's a spacious shower room, plus the outdoor decking area makes the most of the views towards the fells along with plenty of room for alfresco dining. Guests also benefit from underfloor heating and full insulation. A steel fire pit with a swing arm to use as a grill is provided with each pod as well as parking. Sorry, no pets.

Cragg Farm Camping Pods is open all year round. Stay from £110/night for 2 people (2-night minimum).

Glamping Pod - Ensuite Glamping Pods with Bunk BedsAug 2025

What an incredible find, the pods are just set above a family working farm, the views are incredible and the pods themselves don't leave you wanting/needing for anything. The host Catherine was lovely, really friendly and couldn't do enough for us, we are already booking for next year. Thanks for a great stay, ☺️

Gem of a find

Glamping Pod - Ensuite Glamping Pods with Bunk BedsAug 2025

Came across Cragg Farm Camping Pods whilst looking for accommodation close to the Lakes. Saw the photo of the 3 Pods and did some research of the local area on Google Maps, the remote aspect and the fact they're located on a working farm appealed. Booking process was so simple, we booked 2 of the bunk bed Pods as there were 9 in our family group. Contacted Catherine by email in the days leading up to our dates, answered promptly with great detail. Arrived at the Pods and loved the set up, nicely perched on a hillside with fantastic views of the Lake District hills. Safe and secure with fencing all around, ideal for our kids. Pods were immaculate with lovely bedding supplied, we were all really impressed. Catherine took time to come up and introduce herself, such a lovely individual who is rightfully proud of the Pods/set up. We will definitely be returning at a future date and have already recommended Cragg Farm Camping Pods to friends and family. Thank you Catherine for a wonderful break experience.
