We really enjoyed our time here, the location is stunning and the pod was spotless. Plenty of nearby walks and attractions. Simon and his wife were super friendly and really helpful throughout our stay.
James
We really enjoyed our time here. The lodge is stunning both inside and outsideand it’s got everything you could want. The outdoor area with the hot tub was a highlight, especially since we could bring our dog along. The location is spot on - great for walks and close enough to a lovely village and town. Simon was a fantastic host, super helpful at every stage. Honestly, wish we’d stayed longer - we’ll be back!
Emma Carter
Stunning scenery, highly recommend it!

What a cosy and practical pod! It's just perfect for us keen walkers. We loved the vibe and the convenience really suited our needs. The location is great too - we could easily explore the beautiful walking trails nearby. Overall, it's a lovely little spot for anyone who enjoys the outdoors!
Lucy
We had a lovely weekend at the Escape pod with our dog! The pod was absolutely beautiful, spotlessand so cosy, plus it had everything we could possibly need. We would definitely come back. The host was really helpful and friendly, which made the stay even better. The location is wonderful and so peaceful, plus you can join the Hadrians Wall walk just outside! We even made friends with some horses in the neighbouring field. 5 stars - well deserved.
Clara
Lovely little pods! There’s plenty of space for everything, plus a great selection of utensils and cooking options. The space was really clean and situated in a lovely setting. The owners were friendly and introduced themselves with some info about the local area. The cabins are actually on top of Hadrian's Wall, which we didn’t realise but a good history nerd might appreciate! The hot tub was sizable and worked well, but I’ll mention here that it’s 100 extra for the hot tub, payable on the day - we read reviews, not descriptions, oops!
Clara
This luxury pod is simply the best with such an amazing view and easy access to walk the dogs. Having our own private hot tub was just mint! We highly recommend staying there!
