Set amid the rolling landscapes of the Shropshire Hills National Landscape, this stylish glamping pod with a hot tub makes a peaceful retreat for couples or solo travellers. A raised private deck welcomes you to this distinctive pod, where far-reaching rural views immediately set the tone for your stay.
Inside, the curved, wood-panelled ceiling gives the studio-style interior a warm, contemporary character. A plush sofa faces the Smart TV, creating a cosy setting for evenings in, while the sleek kitchenette contains the essentials for preparing meals. A dining table sits beside the entrance, or you can eat outside on the decking. A comfortable double bed sits towards the rear, with a nearby wet room containing a shower and WC. The south-facing decking is a lovely place to start the day with coffee or settle down with a drink while watching the farm animals. A few steps lead down to a gravelled area with further seating and your own private hot tub from which to soak up the surroundings. Off-road parking for two cars makes arrival straightforward and gives you an easy base for exploring the wider area.
