Do you love the outdoors, fresh air and the sun shining in your face? You’re not alone; the creators of Ecopod Holidays feel the same. We have combined the essential features of outdoor holidays with the facilities to relax in comfort at the end of the day, knowing that the place in which you are staying is working in harmony with the environment.
We have built our unique havens by bringing together materials which are either replaceable, or have been reused, to create somewhere beautiful. Somewhere away from the chaos of modern day life. Somewhere you would like to be. Somewhere to stay awhile.
If you like space away from the crowd, where you can recharge and breathe at your own speed, enjoy all the activities a rural holiday has to offer, or catch up with your family and friends, Ecopod holidays are for you.
Ecopod sites are warm and cosy set in the unique beauty of Derbyshire’s rolling Countryside.
For those of you interested in the ‘eco’ part...
Eco pods are built using reclaimed local timber, with some additional FSC approved woods when needed. It is insulated with natural materials, such as sheep’s wool and all finishes are derived from plant based paints and natural oils. They also benefit from solar power for lighting and appliances.
Would you like one for yourself?
Designer and builder Craig Banks has also created several bespoke Ecopods for people who wish to have one in their own garden; as home offices, extra rooms, studios or simply a place to relax. Do you have a project in mind? We are always here to help talk your ideas through.
