The Hawthorn Pod with private hot tub & BBQ

Beautiful and quirky just for two


Relax, Reconnect and Recharge in our luxurious romantic glamping pods. Get close to nature without compromising on modern amenities, comfort or style.

Our two pods are built by an award winning Scottish designer and are located away from the central farm in a secluded field. They sit far away from each other providing peace, and privacy. They each have their own sparkling clean hot tub and outside sitting area. The Rowan has its own barbecue hut as well.

Inside the Rowan are bench seats and small table that turn into a comfortable double bed, or twin beds at night. It also has its own small kitchen area and shower room. It has a wonderful stable style door so you can leave half open, and a fabulous circular window for watching the stars and skies. There is also a Smart TV, 5G WiFi and speakers. It has underfloor heating so is cosy in any weather!

The Hawthorn Pod looks like a tiny fairytale house but with all the high-tech comforts. Air-conditioning mood lighting, television, sound system, small fridge, coffee machine/cafetiere, kettle and toaster providing the total glamping experience with style!

There are acres and acres of farmland here to explore, or simple to be. You can totally relax, recharge and reconnect. In the distance are the soft green peaks of the Lammermuir Hills.

Although we are set deep in the gorgeous Scottish Borders just 20 miles south of Edinburgh, we are ideally placed for exploring both the Scottish Borders with its history, market towns, abbeys and castles as well as Edinburgh, Glasgow, Stirling, Loch Lomond and The Trossachs. We also have Museums, Abbeys, Beaches, Walks, Golf, Fishing, Food Trails, Farmers Markets, Quirky shops, Edinburgh Zoo, Mountain Biking, Cycling, great Festivals and so much all on the doorstep.

Our onsite Farm Shop stocks local produce, including high quality ready made meals, ice cream, cheeses, olives, oil, essentials, plus wool from our Alpacas and Llama. Nearly everything in the shop is Gluten Free.

Meet the owner

Carol Houghton

Martin and Carol decided to diversify their farming activities in 2006. A trip to Norway resulted in the purchase of 4 Norwegian lodges and Airhouses was formed. In 2012 The Capercaillie was built as there was a demand for a larger property. In 2016 came the Rowan Pod and 2021 along came the Hawthorn Pod. We are still farming with a mixture of Aberdeen Angus and Shetland Suckler Cows but we also have a number of rare breed pets. We have installed flight ponds and various walks which have been fenced off, so safe from cattle. The result is that the farm as a whole has an abundance of wild life.
