Book a break in the beautiful countryside on the edge of the Peak District

On The Edge of The Peak District

We are 10 mins. from Alton Towers and a 20 min. walk to the local pub, The Tavern in Denstone.

The 6 EcoPods are set spaciously within 2 acre orchard with snaking pathways linking the EcoPods together. A great place to relax and unwind. There are lots of birds, we have local Red Kites, Buzzards and  Ravens..!

The EcoPods

The EcoPods are all equiped with everthing you need to prepare meals and heated by pasive solar heating in the summer and woodburners for the colder evenings.  They have showers, lighting and charging facilites for your phones.

Every Ecopod is unique; the interiors are made from reclaimed wood and clad externally from local Cedar or Larch grown locally.

  The Local Area

The site has stunning views and huge expansive skies looking over the Weaver Hills and Churnet Valley. It’s very quiet apart from the local birds, who are noisy…! Especially at dawn and dusk.  With lots of space around each EcoPod; you can lie all day in the dappled light from the leaves and remember your childhood when there was nothing to do but daydream…
