Property code: OC-B31013

Take in the extensive views of the Solway Coast flats from this glamping pod, a unique holiday home perfect for two. The pod is one of five similar accommodations on the grounds of a former rectory, sharing a generous amount of outdoor space just 200 metres from the shoreline. While offering a simple design and studio-style layout, the property is enhanced with luxurious features, including a private hot tub directly outside, allowing you to truly relax and recharge between days of hiking or cycling through the Cumbrian landscape and along the marvellous Hadrian’s Wall.

This pet-friendly retreat stays cosy year-round, with electric heating and wooden cladding that add warmth even when it's cold outside. The open-plan layout features a lounge, kitchenette, dining area, and bedroom all in one compact space, with a refreshing shower room just next door. The extendable dining table provides extra space when not in use, and a Smart TV offers endless entertainment for relaxing in bed or on the sofa. Outside, a small, decked area is furnished with a bistro set for outdoor dining, and a private hot tub is tucked away for your enjoyment. In addition to the shared lawn space, there is a reserved private parking spot for you.

Set on the fringes of the Solway Coast National Landscape, this location is ideal for exploring one of Cumbria’s lesser-known beauty spots. The coastline, just a stone’s throw away, offers stunning views across the water toward Dumfries. The property is also located on the Hadrian’s Cycleway – Route 72 to be precise. Hop on your bike to explore the 170-mile UNESCO World Heritage Site of Hadrian’s Wall, stopping off to admire Roman forts, tranquil villages, and breathtaking landscapes.
