Description
If you are looking to start up a campsite, or to buy some new stock, then our glamping pods are the perfect choice. They are under 2.5m high, which means you do not need to get planning permission before building them. The floor bearers are pressure-treated by us, and are guaranteed to last for up to ten years without damage from wood-destroying insects or fungus. Your campers can feel secure leaving their belongings inside while they wander into nature, because our 4-point locking system is industry leading and tested to BSEN 1303:2005 classification.

Avoid Planning Permission
This building is under 2.5m high. Why does this matter? Well, under permitted development rights buildings under 2.5m high can be placed as close as you want to a boundary (eg. a fence line) without planning permission. Buildings that are over 2.5m high, however, need to be placed over 2m away from any boundary (eg. a fence line), which means that with taller buildings you end up with a lot of space behind them. If you want to find out more about permitted development rights see our
planning guide
Free fixing pack
We include all the screws, nails and fixings needed to put your garden building together - not everyone is that thoughtful. It also saves you having to worry about what sort of screws you'll need, what length and other such things, the right fixing for the job is included in the kit!
Pressure Treated Floor Bearers
By pressure treating our floor bearers we protect the foundations from rot and insect infestation. It also provides the rasa pod with extra support and without pressure treated bearers moisture would damage the lower aspects of the Rasa Pod.
Commercial and personal use
The best thing about our Camping Pods is that they have a multitude of uses, primarily commercial and personal use. Commercial use ranges from campsites, bed and breakfast accommodation, fishing huts, agri-tourism, to small hotels. Personal use entitles you to use it any which way you see fit. This is ideally suited for those who have households with limited space. Our pods can also be used as Garden Offices or a work space to carry out DIY projects, or as your very own man cave.
Pods for business (Excellent Return on Investment)
Our Camping Pods offer an exciting growth opportunity in the UK holiday market. The Camping Pod allows businesses to create non-intrusive accommodation in some of nature’s most beautiful places. Whether you’re a start-up business or a farm looking to diversify or even an established campsite with a spare field or woodland glade, a Camping Pod can help you release untapped revenue.
4 POINT DOOR LOCKING SYSTEM
Our PremiumPlus doors feature our industry leading four point locking system. It features a hook, locking latch and two roller locks. We use a type of lock known as a RASP cylinder. The reason we use this, is that it is a safer, more secure locking system as it prevents 'lock bumping' and 'cylinder snapping'. Our Premiumplus windows have multipoint locking as well, using the same type of system as we supply with our uPVC windows and doors.
10 YEAR TIMBER GUARANTEE
Our 10 year guarantee is for our pressure-treated timber, such as floor bearers. These arrive at your door already treated by us, and we guarantee that as long as you follow certain guidelines such as not burying them in the ground (full guidelines are here)
, your timber will remain fungus and insect free for up to ten years.
Slow Grown Spruce
We use slow grown spruce for the walls of all our Garden Buildings as it is better all round than pine! Spruce is less porous than Pine and so less likely to shrink, warp or split. We only select slowly grown timber from colder climates which also helps keep the timber more stable as the rings are densely packed. It is also a less resinous timber than Pine, which makes the possibility of sap ruining your clothes or furnishings much less likely.
A Glamping Pod is a building designed for people who love the outdoors and love the idea of camping, but not the idea of being in a cold and damp tent. A Glamping Pod can also be placed in your garden to be used as a retreat, man cave or even a kid’s playroom.
