Cosy and very well-equipped glamping pods for two in the heart of the Lake District
We've always liked the cosy accommodation at The Yan in the heart of the Lake District, but The Yan Glamping takes things to a new level, with their handmade bespoke pods designed for couples wanting a romantic retreat or just a place bang in the centre of the Great Outdoors.
Situated on a former farm, they enjoy a lovely position, surrounded by some of the Lakes' best scenery, and instant access to many inspiring mountain and valley routes. Grasmere village is a short stroll away, but closer to home is the award award-winning, Yan Bistro, serving breakfast, dinner and Sunday roasts. There's also the handy option to have your meal delivered straight to your pod.
As for the pods, they're equipped with everything you might need for a luxurious stay while sacrificing none of the closeness to nature that makes glamping so special. Indeed, 'pod' perhaps isn't quite the right word – there's a lounge area with a large sofa, a wood-burning stove, a dining table with two chairs, and a wall-mounted flatscreen TV. There's also a fitted kitchen with oven, hob, small fridge/freezer, kettle, toaster and all the pans, crockery and glasses you need – plus WiFi, a Bluetooth radio system and electrical sockets with integrated USB chargers for your devices. The king-size bed has crisp white linen, and the bathroom a large walk-in, rain head shower, toilet, sink, heated towel rail, and of course, fluffy white towels. As if that wasn't enough, it's eco-friendly too – fully insulated, with a woodchip boiler providing hot water, and LED lighting throughout. If there's a cosier country bolthole for loved-up Lakeland walking folk, we've yet to find it.

The Owner Says
The Yan Glamping: taking the outdoors to another level! Our luxury Lake District glamping pods have been hand built to our bespoke design for couples wanting a romantic retreat or a place to chill out for a few days.
Our two luxury Micro Lodge Pods are located on Broadrayne Farm in the very heart of the Lake District National Park. Broadrayne Farm, a former 17th-century farm, enjoys a sunny elevated position surrounded by some of Britain’s finest scenery, and there is instant access to many inspiring mountain and valley walks. The famous Coast to Coast route passes through the farm's land and the picturesque village of Grasmere is a short stroll away.
We also have a licensed Bistro on-site at Broadrayne Farm, Cumbria, where you can enjoy breakfast, an afternoon tea, evening meal or just a drink. Check out our example menu here: The Yan at Broadrayne Bistro.
