Blackberry Glamping Pod is situated at Wall Eden Farm, in gorgeous countryside near Burnham-on-Sea in Somerset.

This compact, homely little holiday property is one of nine ingeniously designed waterside pods which look over a small fishing pond. Set on an ex-dairy farm, Wall Eden Farm is home to a flock of rare breed sheep, a family of moorhens and some chickens which supply the onsite farm shop with fabulously fresh eggs.

Inside, Blackberry Glamping Pod sleeps 2 comfortably in a double bed, but can accommodate an extra 2 people by using the convertible sofa area. There is a bathroom with a shower, wash basin and toilet. The small but well-equipped kitchen has an oven, hob and fridge freezer. There’s even a TV with DVD player.

A variety of activities are available onsite including archery, shooting, axe throwing and watersports such as kayaking and paddle-boarding. Fishing is available on a private stretch of the River Brue or on the small coarse pond near the glamping pods. There’s also a café / bar where they serve snacks, cakes and beverages.
