  • "Mallard view was spotlessly clean on arrival."

    We were met by Diane , the owner , who had been very helpful throughout the booking process. The pod itself is exceptionally well equipped for a 2 person stay . Hot tub made it a very relaxing stay . Within walking distance of Farmyard Brewery (half mile) which would recommend , anywhere else a vehicle is essential (or bus nearby). Overall a thoroughly enjoyable stay.

    ! If your thinking of booking that away trip with your significant other or friends then do it!! Hosts were so lovely and the pods themselves AMAZING! So nice and cozy, pub not too far away but we booked plenty of things to do during the day so getting back to relax and use the hot tub was just the perfect treat!

    The hosts have made some really great places to stay - they are clean, tidy and warm (underfloor heating) with a really good shower and great hot tub. They emailed detailed instructions before our stay, greeted us on arrival and told us about a local brewery on a farm with a nice bar within walking distance which was also excellent. The surrounding area is also beautiful. I would highly recommend.

    We were met by Diane who was very friendly and explained everything to us. The Pod and Patio was exceptionally clean. The facilities inside were perfect with everything supplied, and the cup cakes left for us was a nice gesture. The Hot tub was very clean and so relaxing. The weather was cold and wet but this didn't matter as we were warm and cosy inside the Pod. We enjoyed the experience and would like to go back sometime in the future.

About the location

LANCASTER

Morecambe 3 miles; Windermere 30 miles; Blackpool 37 miles.

The historic city of Lancaster sits on edge of Morecambe Bay, with the River Lune flowing through its centre. Lancaster retains many excellent examples of handsome Georgian architecture, and with its captivating medieval castle, Ashton Memorial, and four museums, it’s an interesting place for those in search of history and tales of the past. Among the many amenities, there are two venues for live performances, the Lancaster Grand Theatre and the Dukes, as well as open-air concerts held frequently in the pretty Williamson Park during the summer season. The Forest of Bowland and The Arnside & Silverdale Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty provide visitors with lots of opportunities to take in the flora and fauna of the area, with wonderful walking and cycling ways to enjoy. There are also good road and rail links into Cumbria and beyond, meaning Lancaster is a wonderful base for also exploring the Lake District.
