You can just see in the picture above that there is a table which is stored under the sofa. I was expecting a separate bedroom but in fact the double bed pulls down from the wall in the living area, and then there is a bunk above a sofa which converts into a small single bed. I have to admit we were slightly surprised when we arrived as it wasn’t very clear from the pictures and description on the website that there is only one room in the pod (and a bathroom). The pods are quite small but they do have everything you need for a few nights away. It was quiet when we were there though, and only one of the other pods was occupied. There are 10 glamping pods at Consiton Park Coppice and they are all together in one area of the campsite. When we arrived at the campsite check in was quick and easy, I was given the keys and a map of the campsite, and shown where our glamping pod was. I had won a two night stay in a glamping pod in the BlogOn raffle at the beginning of May and as Toby had a few INSET days tagged onto his half term we thought it would be a good time to make use of our prize. The campsite has pitches for caravans, motorhomes and tents as you might expect but also offers glamping pods, Airstream caravans and camping pods as part of their Experience Freedom holidays. Glamping at Coniston Park Coppice with the Caravan and Motorhome Clubįrom Grizedale we headed over to Coniston Park Coppice, a campsite on the side of Coniston Water run by the Caravan and Motorhome Club. It was a bit soggy but the boys still enjoyed it, and for once didn’t complain about getting a bit wet! It was just starting to rain when we arrived so we ate our packed lunch in the car (we nearly always take a packed lunch on days out to save money) before setting off around the trail. The forest now features the Zog Trail – you can just walk around the trail looking at the boards that are placed regularly along the route, or you can pay £3 for an activity pack that gives you tasks to do along the way, and includes stickers and a Zog mask. We’ve been to Grizedale Forest with the boys quite a few times before – the last time was when we did the Gruffalo Trail back in 2017. We knew we couldn’t get into our accommodation until 3 pm so we decided to fit something in on our way.
With only two nights in the Lakes we wanted to make the most of our time away. So what did we get up to in our 48 hours in the Lake District? Zog Trail at Grizedale Forest All our previous holidays have been in cottages but when I won a two night stay in a glamping pod we were very happy to try something different. We love going o n holiday to the Lake District with our two young children – we’ve been at least once a year since Toby was born.
