    Pods bigger then they look, immaculate with all the accessories you need. Hot tub was great and cleaned every day. Great location feeling like you are in the middle of nowhere with Ulverston town just a 2minute drive. Owners lovely and helpful. Lovely peaceful stay and will be returning next year!

    Carol was very friendly and made us feel very welcome. The attention to detail in the cabin was a nice touch and husband popped up with some eggs from the free range chickens. The donkey was our alarm clock and absolutely loved being a part of a working farm. The views are stunning, jacuzzi great after a long walk and overall had a fantastic stay. I would highly recommend.

    Carol and Ian are a lovely couple, very friendly, helpful and caring just as their dog Meg who visited us every morning for a little indulgence. It's an absolutely stunning and peaceful place to stay not to mention the views you can enjoy from the hot tube if you want. We recommend this fantastic place for everyone who want to escape from their "everyday routine" for a few days....or more. We loved to be here. Thank you so much again to Carol & Ian.

    We were 5 min away from grocery stores in case you need something in the night . Also restaurants , pubs and etc. It’s a 20 min drive to Windmere Lake. The area is very beautiful, have breathtaking landscapes, quiet and peaceful for relaxing time. There are a lot of hiking trails around as well. Owners are super friendly and helpful. They guide us through the area and also let us come to the farm with my 4 years old daughter and watch farm animals life which was very cute and interesting. The lambs were so cute. Property is very new, neat and cosy. You can have breakfast there if you want and sit outside on the table as well. And yeah, hot tub was amazing, I loved sitting in the night under the stars in it, it was very relaxing. Highly recommend as very cool option for visiting the Lake District

    The location is good as you are a short drive away from a choice of hikes and the town centre is a 15 minute walk away. The hosts are very friendly, whilst leaving you to enjoy the peace they are also happy to help with any recommendations and directions into the town - genuinely happy to help. The pod itself is an ideal space, with plenty of room and equipped with everything you need. The hot tub was also ready to get into whenever you wanted and was nice to get into after a hike. We would definitely stay again and recommend!

  • "We had the best time staying at willow!"

    ! It’s a gorgeous, cosy little pod and perfect for what we were after. The scenery is beautiful and we loved having the cows in the next field to wake up to! Hot tub was spotless, as was everything inside the pod. Our hosts were so friendly and couldn’t do enough for us - our kettle broke on our second day, and the farmer (I’m not sure of his name!) came straight away to fix it and brought it straight back. He also noticed that we had blankets on as we couldn’t work out how to work the heating - he said he would send Carol up to sort it out, and she was straight there to show us what to do, so friendly! The only thing that we would mention is that the mattresses are not the most comfortable - you can feel the springs and they’re noisy when you’re rolling over in bed, but it wouldn’t put us off staying again. I think if the mattresses were changed it would be perfect! Definitely would recommend. Thank you to our hosts.

    An ideal location for stargazing as there is no light pollution - we saw the ISS (International Space Station) and a number of satellites in the night sky from our hot-tub. Fresh eggs from the farm are simply delicious. Ulverston just a mile away (birthplace of Stan Laurel) - lovely village, and we recommend a walk up to the Sir John Barrow monument for 360 degree views for miles (from Blackpool Tower in the south to Skafell Pike in the North). We highly recommend Low Flan Farm.
