Tucked away in the lush green heart of the North York Moors National Park, this boutique glamping pod is a delightful hideaway for couples or small families bringing a waggy-tailed companion. Sleeping up to four guests, this cosy retreat sits on a peaceful site surrounded by other pods and hideaways, 1.5 miles from both Pickering and Thornton-le-Dale.
Step up onto your private wooden deck and open the circular glass doors to enter the pod. Inside, you’ll find a beautifully designed open-plan space with whitewashed timber walls, a barrel ceiling, comfortable seating and tasteful berry-hued furnishings that give the whole place a warm, inviting glow. French doors and a porthole window let the outdoors in. There's a king-size bed, plus two full-size single sleeping pods for extra guests (ideal for older children or adventurous grown-ups). A fold-down table makes mealtimes flexible, and the kitchenette is well-equipped for preparing anything from snacks to supper. Your private wet room features a spacious walk-in shower – perfect for washing off muddy paws and feet alike. Let your four-pawed pal enjoy the fresh air on the decking area while you fire up the BBQ for an al fresco dinner. Unwind with a sundowner as the day draws to a close, surrounded by the sights and sounds of the countryside. There’s even a 20-acre off-lead dog-walking field onsite and the pod comes with parking too.
You and your loyal travel companion will be spoilt for choice with the abundance of scenic trails and paw-friendly paths right from the doorstep. Roam the rolling Howardian Hills or spend a day exploring the stunning grounds of Castle Howard (15.5 miles). For seaside strolls, make a beeline for the North Yorkshire Heritage Coast – Robin Hood’s Bay (24.5 miles) offers coastal views and access to a 7-mile stretch of the Cleveland Way leading to historic Whitby with plenty of dog-friendly pit stops along the way. At the end of the day, refuel in the dog-friendly village pub 1 mile from your door.
