Glamping in Winter: Why it’s the Perfect Escape 

Although glamping in Winter may not be your immediate choice for a staycation you are missing out if you do not experience it at least once.

As we say goodbye to autumn and its vibrant colours and we welcome Winter, the stunning surrounding area transforms into a sparkling Winter wonderland. The branches of trees glimmering in the sun with crisp ground underfoot and visible breath in the air reminding us of the beauty of this time of year.

The Benefits of Glamping in Winter:

There are many benefits to glamping in Winter as it gives you the opportunity to savour the warming elements after braising the cold.

Such as taking a dip in your luxury hot tub and feeling the warm steaming water wrap around you providing protection from the cold. Just sit back and relax while the jets massage your back and legs providing relief from all of your tension and stress.

Everything you need for a relaxing stay right on your doorstep:

As we offer a luxury glamping experience we have everything you need for your stay within your pod area or within a short walking distance.

Our glamping site is fully equipped for your stay including an onsite pub, a private shower room, tennis court, boules court, croquet court, private parking, hideaway seating and scenic nature walks.

Arrival:

When you arrive onsite, James will meet you at the car park to give you a tour of the site on the way to your glamping pod. Do not worry about your luggage—James is on hand to help and will bring it to your pod on his tractor and trailer. All of our paths are gritted for your safety and are well-lit, so you do not need to worry about slipping over in colder temperatures. This attention to detail ensures that from the moment you arrive, your experience is stress-free and enjoyable.

Step Into Your Cosy Pod:

Our luxury glamping pods are weatherproof and equipped with all the amenities needed to keep you cosy and comfortable throughout your stay. Each pod includes a double bed complete with additional pillows and blankets to enhance your comfort, two chairs positioned to take in the scenic views, a dressing table, a TV with free channels, and thoughtful extras like dressing gowns and slippers for your use. The centrepiece of the pod is a charming fireplace that adds warmth and ambience, perfect for unwinding after a day of exploration.

When the snow is gently falling outside, there’s nothing quite like curling up under the luxury duvet with a hot drink and your favourite film. If you’re feeling playful, browse our extensive board game collection for a fun evening, or immerse yourself in a good book as you enjoy the tranquillity of the surroundings.

To add a touch of indulgence why not treat yourself to one of our luxury hampers. Choose from one of the below choices:

  • Breakfast pack – sausages, bacon, black pudding, eggs, locally pressed apple juice, home baked bread.
  • Prosecco celebration pack – prosecco, chocolates and flowers.
  • Champagne celebration pack – champagne, chocolates and flowers, perfect for celebrating a special occasion. 

 

As a courtesy all of our pods have tea, coffee and hot chocolate sachets for your enjoyment as well as a freshly baked loaf of bread, milk and packets of biscuits.

Build Your Own Roaring Fire:

Each pod is equipped with a fireplace so you can enjoy the authentic experience of building and maintaining your own roaring fire. Whether for warmth or a cosy atmosphere, the glow and crackle of a fire after a crisp winter day are truly magical. We provide all the necessary materials, including matches, kindling, chopped logs, and a fire log designed to keep the fire burning for 5–6 hours. Additional logs are readily available in the storage area outside your pod. A step-by-step guide ensures that even novice fire builders can enjoy this simple but rewarding experience.

For those who are new to fire-building, James offers a short demonstration upon request to make the process even easier. 

Stargazing Roof:

Our glamping pods feature a stargazing roof situated directly above the bed, allowing you to marvel at the dazzling night sky from the comfort of your duvet. The roof’s magnetic fabric covering can be easily opened or closed to suit the conditions. On cloudy nights, enjoy the magic of our stargazing light, which mimics the constellations, providing an enchanting indoor experience.

Each pod also boasts a panoramic window that overlooks the stunning Herefordshire valley, offering breathtaking views of the sunrise and sunset. Whether you’re gazing out from inside the pod or stepping onto the decking outside, you’re guaranteed an unforgettable connection with nature.

Take a Dip in Your Luxury Hot Tub:

Warm up from the chill of the air with a soak in your luxury hot tub. The powerful jets are designed to relax your legs, back, and neck as you take in the scenic beauty, including the iconic Malvern Hills. Pair your experience with your favourite beverage or a good book for the ultimate indulgence. During colder weather, we suggest sipping on a creamy hot chocolate or enjoying a festive glass of mulled wine, available at The Hutch Inn.

For a particularly magical moment, dip into the hot tub at sunset or during light snowfall, as the cover ensures you stay comfortable regardless of the elements. However, for safety reasons, we recommend vacating the hot tub in severe weather conditions.

In-Pod Massage:

Our local massage therapist Milly offers in-pod massages that can be booked prior to your stay. She has a variety of packages available from upper body massages to full body massages. For a truly relaxing experience Milly plays relaxing music for your enjoyment as well as lavender scented aromatherapy oil.

The Hutch Inn:

Our onsite pub, The Hutch Inn, serves a variety of homemade seasonal comfort foods and wood-fired pizzas with customisable toppings. Treat yourself to our indulgent sticky toffee pudding, served with cream or custard, or sample our locally sourced ciders, gins, and wines. For non-alcoholic options, we offer soft drinks and hot drinks such as tea, coffee and hot chocolate.

The inn features indoor seating for cosy dining and outdoor seating with a fire pole to keep you warm in the crisp air. In the evenings, gather around our firepit area with your chosen drink to relax and bask in the glow of the flames. The Hutch Inn is the perfect spot to round off your day in comfort and style. Additionally, our pub offers takeaway options so you can enjoy your meal from the comfort of your pod or by your own fire.
