  • "Absolutely loved our 4 night stay at Oh Deer, a beautiful, well equipped, warm, comfortable glamping pod with a fab walk in shower and a hot tub too."

    Jane met us on arrival and was so helpful. The on-site deer are inquisitive and came to say hello, a real bonus. Our first time glamping, think we may have stumbled on a gem. Pub just up the road (maybe 3 min walk, no more) with friendly vibe and great food. Lots of unexpected little extras that defo made this WOW!

    Hi Glenn and Jacky, it was an absolute pleasure to meet you both and I'm so pleased you had such a fabulous first glamping experience! Thank you so much the wonderful review, it means so much to us! Best wishes Jane & Phil Property Owner

  • "A perfect and comfortable place to stay!"

    We cannot praise this place enough - from the moment we arrived, Jane welcomed us, explained everything we might need to know for our stay, offered lovely recommendations, and was happy to help! We were just a short drive away from some beautiful walking locations, experiences and restaurants (especially The Crown Inn, a 2 minute walk up the road). Knowing we were returning to a safe and cosy pod with a relaxing and easy to use wood fired hot tub was brilliant. Everything we needed for a 7 night stay was included. We had such a lovely stay, were very sad to be leaving, and will absolutely return in the future! Thank you Jane and Phil!

    Hi Amelia and Max, it was so lovely to meet you both and we're really pleased you had such a fabulous time at Oh Deer.

  • "We had an unforgettable stay at Oh Deer glamping pod that was the perfect honeymoon getaway."

    From the moment we arrived, our host Jane was incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed and offering great local recommendations. The pod itself was spotless and beautifully decorated, with a cozy atmosphere that made us feel right at home. One of the highlights was the relaxing hot tub, which was a fantastic way to unwind while enjoying the peaceful surroundings. The area around the pod was tranquil, providing a perfect escape and it was magical watching the deer frolick in the distance. Despite the serene setting, we found plenty of exciting places to explore just a short drive away. Whether it was scenic trails or charming local spots, there was no shortage of things to do. To top it off, the personalized touches for our honeymoon were truly special. A welcome with thoughtful goodies, prosecco, Mr & Mrs/congratulations decor and a heartfelt card made our stay even more memorable. Overall, this glamping pod was an ideal choice for our honeymoon, and we can’t wait to return!

    Dear Hattie and Aiden… WOW what fabulous feedback… I’m humbled, thank you so much!!! We work so hard to make sure every guests experience at our pods is an unforgettable one and I personally love adding all those little extras to make a truly memorable stay! I’m so pleased you had a wonderful honeymoon, enjoyed the hot tub and watching the deer. We look forward to you returning again in the future! Take care & best wishes Jane Property Owner

    Jane the owner had wonderful hospitality and attention to detail, she meets you on arrival and talks you through everything which is lovely. Proseco, coffee/tea/hot choc and milk and biscuits were all provided which was a delightful addition to the pod. Oh deer itself was roomy, well equipped, incredibly clean and the bed and shower were superb. We really appreciated all the decoration and attention to detail that had gone in to decorating Oh Deer and it really elevated our stay to make it more enjoyable. The log fire hot tub was lovely and relaxing and Jane was an amazing host and helped us out a lot and nothing was too much trouble. Overall I would highly recommend Oh Deer it’s a wonderful place to stay and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would love to come back, we couldn’t fault anything it was perfect. It’s also a superb location with local pubs and farm shops near by and lots of good pubs and service are not too far of a drive or a walk down the road !

Jane went out of her way to go get me a vase to display them in the pod. The pod is designed so well and meets all of your needs. If you were self catering there would be no reason to actually have to leave the pod. There were really lovely touches such as, the welcome book with ideas of what to do during your stay, books which we used one of to go on a trail.. it was so fun! A box with games in so we had lil card night with pizza, there was a Prosecco on arrival and choc buttons which were delicious. The hot tub was really easy to follow and use, this was also cleaned on our second day and refilled for us. The view is great and the surroundings are so quiet and with the view of the deers it was just bliss. We spent 4 nights in the pod and we definitely wanted to stay longer and there was plenty more for us to go and do, we have already said we will definitely stay there again!

  • "We had an amazing stay at Oh Deer!"

    Everything was to a super high standard, really clean and had everything we wanted. The hot tub was lovely - although it took approx. 2 hours to heat up as it was a wood burning one, this was no problem for us, and it was easy to use! Jane the owner was lovely, came to greet us at the start and made us feel very welcome. We have already recommended to a few friends to come with their partners.

    Hi Roseanna, thanks so much for your lovely feedback. We are so pleased you enjoyed your stay and thank you for recommending our glamping pods to your friends! Kind regards Jane Property Owner

About the location

ASHBOURNE

Matlock 15.7 miles; Bakewell 16.6 miles; Chatsworth 20.4 miles.

Lying at the southern end of the Peak District, Ashbourne is a perfect example of an English market town - market place with stalls, eccentric street plan, narrow cobbled alleys, coaching inns and almshouses. In its heyday in the 18th-century, the town was a fashionable social centre, and many fine Georgian buildings remain from this period. Today the town still has much to offer in terms of restaurants and inns and is regarded as something of a haven for antique hunters - but don’t expect a bargain! For those who prefer more outdoor pursuits, the Dove and Manifold Valleys are close by and for thrill seekers Alton Towers with its exciting collection of rides and attractions is just a short drive away.
