About this property
Hen House - Family-friendly glamping pod on a working farm
The Hen House is a modern Glamping Pod complete with underfloor heating, mains electricity and plumbed in facilities plus stunning views overlooking Underbarrow and further to Scout Scar, that has been designed with families in mind.
Added in December 2021, The Hen House is identical to the adjacent Pig Pod, which also sleeps 4. Situated within the Lake District National Park, High Gregg Hall Farm in Underbarrow is just a 15-minutes drive from Windermere and 10-minutes from Kendal. A 5-minute walk away is the popular Black Labrador Pub, which offers fantastic food and a great choice of ales.
Measuring 3300mm W x 7200mm L x 2850mm, The Hen House is similar to the smaller pods apart from the addition of fitted children's bunk beds to the rear. A fantastic option for a relaxing getaway from the busy town or city life. After a day out exploring the Lake District of walking on the fells, return to relax on the patio with a glass of wine, or perhaps a BBQ. The Hen House Pod has been expertly built to provide high-quality furnishings and fittings that will provide for a fantastic stay.
Accommodation Summary Double Bed with fabulously comfy pillows, shelf storage and USB sockets for charging devices. Children's fitted bunk beds to the rear of the Pod.
