Kentmere Farm Pods Reviews

Lovely bank holiday stay

Lovely little pods! Would highly recommend! More spacious than you think! We stayed in the Frostwick, which met all our needs. Nice comfy double bed, shower & toilet in one, little kitchen area with a microwave and fridge, seating area and decent L shaped sofa! We hired a fire pit and there were also BBQs to hire. The farm was lovely, we overlooked the sheep and cows / highland cow, it was so peaceful and not noisy at all! There is a lovely little walk down to the river too. The farm site location was perfect, 5 mins from Staveley village, about 15 mins from Kendal in one direction and 15 mins from Windermere in the other, which made it perfect for days out. We did the Craggy Woods walk, which is just out of the village. I couldn't fault the site at all. Only thing was the signal was poor until you got to the village but that's all part of camping!!

Thanks Abby for such a lovely review. Hope we see you again.

Great location with lovely surrounding walks

We stayed in the White Howe (dog friendly) pod. You would have never had known that it had been used by other doggos before, it was amazingly clean. The location was great, lots of nice little walks at your doorstep. This was ideal for our family walks and evening strolls. Having a toddler and young baby, I was at ease letting my little one run round as the field is secure and safe. The pod itself was fantastic, it has everything you need in one space. We didn't expect to receive 4G but we were able to get reception. Overall our experience was brilliant, we will definitely be back. Thank you to Georgina for keeping us updated with relevant information before our stay.

We love Kentmere Farm Pods

My wife, kids and I visit every year. We absolutely love this place. The location is stunning and relaxing and the kids have a great time exploring. Short drive to Windermere and lots of walks with a great village near by. The pods are perfect with all the facilities you need. We will be back again next year (and the year after….)

Thanks for such a lovely review James.

What a wonderful weekend!

My fiancé and I stayed here for a weekend getaway and had such a lovely time! The pods are perfect and have everything that you may need. There was a kitchen area that was well stocked with everything that you could need (cutlery, plates, glasses) and a bed with a thick duvet on. There was a very clean bathroom, with a good shower and plenty of hot water. It was a wholesome weekend, where we enjoyed a break from the norms of technology. The scenery was spectacular! Thank you.

Thanks so much for such a lovely review, Sarah, and so I am so glad you had a wonderful weekend. Hope to see you again at some stage.

Birthday trip

Lovely welcome to a stunning view, once I found the pod, a nice birthday card was left. can't fault the pod, it was brilliant and comfortable. I just wish there was a stash of milk, tea or coffee, like in a hotel! I was thirsty on arrival after a long trip. The whole thing was magnificent, very well set out and I could have stayed longer! highly recommend. just missing hot tub facilities to soak in the views on a sunny fresh morning. - Will be back next year.

A wonderful escape

Wow, what a fabulous couple of days. Stunning location, so peaceful, yet accessible to the wider Lake District. Perfect for our little family and dog. A cooling dip in the river, then listening to the birdsong (including cuckoo!), while sitting by the Kadai firepit were just perfect. The pod was surprisingly spacious, with comfy bed and wet room. George was very welcoming and helpful, all in all a refreshing and relaxing break. Look forward to our next visit.

Thanks Louise for such a lovely review. So glad you enjoyed all the birdsong and a dip in the river. Hope to see you again.

Reconnect with old friends for walking and swimming

We were able to walk straight from the pod and into stunning landscape. Loved doing yoga on our deck in the early morning sunshine whilst taking in the magnificent views, listening to the cuckoo and the bleating lambs! We also enjoyed being able to nip down to the the river for a cooling-off dip and then later gather around our fire pit for later supper, a glass of fizz and a bit of star gazing. A perfect long weekend getaway! Pod was very clean, well presented and comfortable. The only thing we would have liked is a bit more toilet roll - 1 small roll for three adults over two nights wasn't really enough!

Thanks for such a positive review. So glad you loved the landscape and managed a dip in the river, as well as finding the pod a great place to stay. As it is self-catering we provide a few essentials to get you started but we do expect guests to bring their own supplies.

The idyllic location

Great pods, set in a perfectly peaceful location, surrounded by stunning countryside. The pods are well equipped, clean, warm and have everything you need. Great location too! Would definitely recommend.

Warm and cosy

Such a lovely pod, very clean with great facilities. Hooks would be handy! The underfloor heating was fabulous. We used the pod as a base, then would return and relax and enjoy the views. Would definitely recommend and return.

Amazing time at Kentmere Farm Pods

I recently stayed at the Kentmere Farm Pods for 7 nights with my family. We had a super time. The pods were in a great location to explore the Lake District. Making a fire each night in the fire pit and roasting marshmallows was the highlight for my children.

Thanks Dan for a great review. So glad you had a good time. Just hope there was no cloud so you could enjoy the stars as well as the fire pit!

Fantastic pods in a beautiful location

We spent a wonderful 4 nights in Froswick pod - gorgeous views, tranquil place, with occasional visits from our favourite escaped sheep! The pod was comfy and had everything we needed, and is well located for family-friendly activities around Windermere. We hired a fire pit, which was fun (for the marshmallow toasting). George was really friendly and welcoming, and the pod was clean and well-supplied.

Fantastic

We had a fantastic 4-day break. The accommodation was first class, the views were amazing and it was a fantastic location. Peaceful and quiet, great for walking and central to visits to Kendal, Windermere etc. We will be booking again, highly recommended.

Thanks for such a great review, Patricia. Lovely to meet you and look forward to seeing you again.

Awesome accommodation with breathtaking views

Lovely accommodation in a Pod, with everything you need to live comfortably but wild enough for it to feel like a true adventure, ideal for families. The hosts are very accommodating and helpful providing you with lots of information about the area with lots of ideas for walks, food, days out come rain or shine. The location is breathtaking, with gorgeous views which never get boring. Lots of room for children to play outside and explore by themselves and get in touch with nature and the surrounding. Staying here was the highlight of our trip to the UK, highly recommended.
