About Peaks and Pods

Luxury pods with extra special touches, sandwiched between the Forest of Bowland and the Yorkshire Dales National Park

We're Joanne and John and we have opened up a corner of our dairy farm between the Yorkshire Dales and the Forest of Bowland. Three generations of our family live and work on the farm and we have put our hearts and souls into creating a bespoke, luxury 'glamping' experience for our outdoor-loving guests.

Our luxury pods are specially-designed to be used all year round, with heating, insulation, double glazing and indoor cooking. You will never feel the cold, or experience broken tent poles and soggy sleeping bags. This is glamping at its best!

At Peaks and Pods we welcome families, couples, friends, cyclists, walkers, countryside lovers and outdoor enthusiasts who want to experience an exciting new place to stay. The five pods each sleep four comfortably. They're kitted out with private shower rooms, fully-equipped kitchenettes, pocket-sprung double beds, memory-foam sofa beds, folding tables and chairs, decked areas, private outdoor spaces, fire bowls to hire (for fire pits and barbecues) and picnic tables. You can even opt for your own private wood-fired hot tub at two of the pods. There's great mobile phone signal and each pod has free WiFi.

Visiting cyclists will find first-class facilities for washing, repairing and securely storing their bikes on-site, and guests can even cook fresh pizzas in our stunning wood-fired oven, available to hire. There's also a little laundry, where guests can wash, dry and iron their clothes. There are board games, toys, books and outdoor games kept there too. There's plenty of space to relax in the covered social area at The Hub, with tables and chairs and lighting.

We're a 'green' business and have a Gold Award from Green Tourism. Electricity is provided by a wind turbine and solar panels, we encourage our guests to recycle, and we provide environmentally-friendly cleaning products in every pod.

We believe that it is important that you can tailor-make your own experience, adding as many or as few extras as you want. Our extra choices allow every stay to be totally bespoke - perfect for your own needs. Let us know if there's more we can do to help.

We're looking forward to seeing you!

Joanne and John

Activities

It's 5 miles to Gisburn Forest, a Mecca for mountain bikers and one of the Forestry Commission’s ‘Super 6’ cycling destinations. It’s perfect for an adrenaline-packed ride, or a family-friendly pedal. Most of trails start from Gisburn Forest Hub (01200 446747) with car park, toilets, picnic area and seasonal café. While you're there, a walk round the beautiful reservoir is a must. Excellent local market towns include Settle, Clitheroe, Skipton and Kirkby Lonsdale – all only a short journey away. Hop aboard a waggon on the Settle-Carlisle Railway (01729 825888) – England's most scenic train line is the claim – or take on the famous walking routes around Malham Cove and Tarn, where you can hop across the unique limestone rocks like a bug on giant puzzle pieces. The most hardy walkers can take on the Yorkshire Three Peaks (in a day) – Whernside, Ingleborough and Penyghent – enjoying Ribblehead Viaduct en route (a worthy landmark to walk to in itself).

Food & Drink

You can get you pod stocked up with lots of tasty items for breakfast and basics for your stay. Guests can have their shopping done for them and arrive to find their pods filled with top-quality breakfast ingredients and essential food items ready and waiting. There's also a wonderful wood-fired pizza oven available to hire for £10 per night, located at The Hub - the fabulous sheltered social space with seating, lighting and heat.
If you need anything else or have specific dietary requirements, just ask Joanne and John. Elsewhere, the nearest great pub is Craven Arms (01729 825627) in Giggleswick, or head the 5 miles to Settle for a wide range of cafés, pubs, restaurants and cuisines.
