  • "I probably won't say any different to every other review."

    The Beech pod was spotlessly clean in a beautiful location. The hot tub was checked every day by the owners who were also on hand for information on walks and ideas to do things locally. My grand daughter picked the pod, and although I'm a cottage fan, she loved it and didn't want to leave. We had some friends visit, and they're looking to book one of the pods as they were impressed by them. We all said the experience would be amazing with a snowy backdrop.

    The pod and facilities were amazing very cozy And everything you need The views were great The only thing i would say is the hot tub needed to be a little more private as we could see our neighbours But we would stay here again

  • "We would definitely recommend, great accommodation in a great area, easy access for all of the lakes."

    The hot tub was a relaxing treat after lots of walking. The owner was lovely too, recommending local walks (which we didn't do as we had already planned where we were going). We will definitely go back (and include the recommended walks).

  • "Me and my partner stayed at the Beech cabin."

    It was super clean and well maintained. The scenery is beautiful from the cabin which looks onto the hills. The hot tub was amazing. No faults whatsoever and we’ll be going again for again for sure. The location is perfect as you’re close to a lovely town and it only takes 20 minutes to get to Windermere Lake. The host was very welcoming and gave us information on local landmarks and things to do while we were there.

  • "We had the best break at Low Flan Farm Retreat."

    I never wanted to leave. The cabins are roomy and comfortable, had great amenities and were so clean!! Carol and Ian are so helpful and lovely, made us feel right at home. The local town is lovely too. They shared their knowledge about walks, animals, farming, and we loved seeing their beautiful animals. The hot tub was an amazing addition, and it is cleaned every day. The local town is lovely and has everything you need. I felt so relaxed by the end of our trip, and the retreat holds a special place in our hearts, we will be booking again and I’ve already told all my family and friends about it!

  • "We stayed at the Beech for 5 nights."

    From the day we arrived, Carol has been super helpful and friendly to us. The pod was clean and nicely decorated. It also had all the required utensils in the kitchen. The hot tub is checked by Carol and her team on a daily basis and they kept it nice and clean for us. There are other pods nearby so we didn’t feel too isolated but at the same time there was enough privacy to enjoy our trip without worrying about people noticing. The Ulverston town itself is a few minutes drive and Windermere was 40 minutes drive from the pod. Overall, a lovely stay there and would definitely recommend if you like a cozy holiday without the noise of traffic.

  • "A very neat and tidy location which is mirrored inside the glamping pod and on the little private patio."

    The view from the Hot Tub ( from any of the corner seats) is beautiful and serene. The location, within walking distance of Ulverston, means that you don’t need to jump in a car if you don’t want to as there are shops , cafe’s and bars and walks on your door step. A fantastic option for an outdoor, peaceful , comfortable break

  • "Lovely little cabin."

    Thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and the owners very nice, especially when giving us guidance of places around to go on walks and things to see. Short walk away from shops and places to grab a bite to eat and a short drive to many different attractions. Water pressure in the bathroom sink could do with a little look but other than that a stunning cosy place to stay would definitely recommend.

  • "I had an excellent stay at Beech in Ulverston."

    The accommodation is in a fantastic location with all the facilities needed for a short stay. The hot tub was the perfect reward after a long day of walking in the fells with great views across the hills. I’m sure the outside seating area would be wonderful when the weather is more forgiving but the Pod is comfortable and plenty warm and cozy when it’s windy and wet outside. The cooking facilities were adequate for a few simple home cooked meals and a generously sized fridge is provided for all your fresh supplies. There were some great modern touches like a heated towel rail, USB charge points and fast WIFI. I was travelling on my own but I think two people could be just as comfortable without getting in each other’s way. If I could have two wishes it would be for a bedside lamp for reading as the main light is a little bright in the evening and some soap in the bathroom would have been nice. All in all though, a great time was had and I would have no hesitation booking again. Thank you for a lovely stay

    we really enjoyed our stay in Beech pod. It was modern well equipped and spotlessly clean and the hot tub was amazing. The pods are situated in a peaceful setting with beautiful scenery making our stay very relaxing but it was also a short walking distance to the small town of Ulverston with a good variety of eateries. this is an ideal area for exploring the Lake District or just chilling. Ian and Carol were great hosts and introduced us to some of the farm animals which was a great experience. You can really see the hard work Carol and Ian put in to keep the pods hot tubs and the grounds up to a exceptional high standard. we will hopefully return sometime soon and will be recommending to our friends and family.
