Perfect for couples looking for peace without sacrificing comfort. The pod might be compact but it's packed with everything you need - plus that all-important hot tub for evening soaks under the stars.

Set in quiet countryside with views that'll make your Instagram followers weep. Wildlife spotting is top-notch here - deer, red squirrels, barn owls and red kites regularly make appearances.

The pod sleeps 2 in a comfy double bed. Inside you'll find a shower room, electric cooking facilities including a single ring hob, microwave and fridge/freezer. Everything's spotlessly clean and well-equipped - several guests mention it beats many hotels they've stayed in. Dog-friendly accommodation means your four-legged companion doesn't miss out on the holiday fun.

Explore Hadrian's Wall with Roman ruins at Housesteads (15 miles, 25 minutes), Birdoswald (10 miles, 20 minutes), Vindolanda (17 miles, 30 minutes) and Talkin Tarn Country Park (5 miles, 15 minutes). Ancient woodland at Gelt Woods (4 miles, 10 minutes) offers peaceful walks and stunning scenery.

We spent three nights at this lovely property with our dog. It felt like we were the first people to use the place. Close to Hadrian's Pathway, it was peaceful and perfect for walking and relaxing. Simon, our host, was really helpful and suggested some great walks for us and the dog! We loved it! We will definitely go again. We slept really well as the bed was so comfortable. Thanks, Simon! By the way, we loved the message on the bench by the beck! It really suits our philosophy on life.
