Lake District Glamping
Come and enjoy a truly upmarket, first class glamping experience in the Lake District.
Experience a fabulous blend of ‘getting close to nature’ with some home comforts in our spacious, warm and comfortable octolodges, on our working, family farm in the South Lakes.
Our range of octolodges are in an idyllic setting, offering spectacular views of the tranquil, scenic Rusland Valley across to the Coniston range of mountains.
We are in an ideal location, with easy access to many of the top Lake District attractions and after a busy day, you can relax and enjoy watching the sun go down from your balcony, on our unique site.
Our octolodges offer the perfect stay in any weather. On rainy days, enjoy games and activities in the communal barn. Make lasting memories at Abbots Reading Farm.
Meet our Friendly Highland Cattle
Highland cattle have been an integral part of our farming enterprise for nearly 40 years. We can now offer the opportunity to get up close to our gentle Highland Cattle with our brand new Highland Cattle Experience.

“Abbots Reading Farm is a lovely and picturesque place, surrounded by open fields and beautiful mountains. We did not stay overnight but came looking for highland cows. We plan to stay due to the incredible service and passion shown to us by the owner.”
“An amazing place surrounded by nature! Perfect to get up close to the animals including the highland cows which are a must-see! Tony is incredibly kind and very informative about all the animals which are all well looked after and cared for! Thank you Tony!”
“Very welcoming and comfortable base for the lakes. Clean and tidy living room and kitchen and the bedroom’s were ensuite. All amenities are reasonably close. Dog friendly and off road parking area which is well kept.”
“Had a lovely experience. The accommodation and associated facilities were very well-maintained and sufficiently comfortable. The observation deck outside each Octolodge is good for relaxing, watching the sunset and the stars. Tony, the owner, was welcoming, resourceful and helpful. Great value for money too.”
“Amazing location to spend a night or 2 in an Octopod, the pods are perfectly located to capture the sunrise and sunset, with an amazing view of The Old Man of Coniston, mountain range…
The farm is run by a lovely chap, named Tony and is happy to help with any questions.”
