Set on a peaceful woodland site beside the canal and River Calder, this handcrafted glamping pod is perfect for nature lovers who enjoy a touch of luxury. Sleeping up to five guests and two lucky pups, it’s ideal for a couples’ escape or a family-friendly adventure. With riverside walks from the door and days out in the nearby Forest of Bowland, there’s plenty of fresh air and new scents for curious noses to sniff out.
Set within a private garden enclosed by a low hedge, this chalet pod has a warm, homely feel with curved ceilings, timber cladding and plenty of thoughtful touches. Step straight into a studio-style living space featuring a compact kitchenette for preparing simple meals, a small dining table and a sofa for snuggling up and watching TV. When night falls, a welcoming double bed and a set of full-sized bunk beds provide cosy sleeping spaces, with the sofa converting to an extra bed if needed. A sleek shower room completes the interior while underfloor heating and full insulation keep toes and paws toasty all-year-round. The living space continues outside. Fire up the BBQ and enjoy al-fresco suppers on the patio while children and dogs potter on the lawn, then toast marshmallows in the firepit beneath starry skies. Off-road parking for two cars adds convenience.
Let your pups lead the way to adventure with riverside and canalside paths from the site or set noses twitching by following the 6-mile Crumbly Lancashire Cheese Trail, which passes nearby. Beacon Fell Country Park (5.5 miles) and the Forest of Bowland National Landscape offer woodland, moorland and big-sky views for longer walkies. For supplies and a taste of village life, visit Catterall (1 mile).
