    Amazing views, beautifully appointed, cosy, comfortable and with no-one around. Truly a memorable experience, and very romantic. Even the walk to the accom was great. Oh and watching the stars in bed was great.

A PurePod stay is like no other experience - a luxury glass eco-cabin, complete with glass roof, glass floor, three walls all of glass with big wide sliding doors and decking, you get to truly immerse yourself in the beautiful natural environment surrounding the PurePod. And, for stargazers, the glass roof and the lack of light pollution ensures on clear nights there are plenty of stars to view. The privacy and the isolation of the glass cabin completely surrounded by nature – the sky, the hills, the mountains, the birds, and the river below – takes you to another world.
