About Hollows Farm and Borrowdale Glamping
Tucked into the fells fifteen minutes from Keswick, Hollows Farm and Borrowdale Glamping offers both traditional pitches and cosy glamping pods in a picturesque North Lakes setting. The site makes a practical base for tackling the nearby trails and tarns, with Derwentwater and the high passes of Borrowdale all within easy reach. Facilities cover the essentials—showers, toilets, drinking water—and the site stays open year-round for those chasing winter light on Catbells or Skiddaw.
Note that dogs aren't permitted, so it's one for human-only adventures. There's no WiFi either, which some will welcome as part of the Lakes experience. It's a straightforward, unpretentious spot that lets the surrounding landscape do the talking.
People say this glamping site offers unique and luxurious accommodation, including yurts and cabins, set within a beautiful woodland. They also highlight the warm welcome from the staff and the peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. Guests mention the spotless facilities and the convenient amenities, such as cooking facilities and private fire pits.

We celebrated a 50th birthday at Howdy Glamping and it couldn’t have been more perfect. The Party Barn was such a fantastic space for bringing everyone together, and the yurts/dwellings in the woods were absolutely beautiful — cosy, stylish, and full of thoughtful personal touches that made the whole weekend feel really special. Andri and Tom were incredible hosts from start to finish. Nothing was ever too much trouble, and they went above and beyond to help with everything we needed. One of the highlights was Andri taking the time to show us a beautiful wild swimming spot nearby, which made the experience even more memorable. We made memories that will genuinely last a lifetime. If you’re looking for an authentic, welcoming, and genuinely special venue, look no further than Howdy Glamping — it’s an absolute gem. Thank you Andri and Tom.

Stayed in Yukhti with my girlfriend and dog, would highly recommend the setting is built within a beautiful peaceful rainforest planted by the owner many years ago. Warm reception on arrival and luxurious amenities with extras thrown in by the owners. Not far from Penrith and in such a relaxing location. Interior was quirky and stylish, very comfortable, dishes, pans, cooking facilities with private toilet and outside fire pit. See you guys again very soon! Ultimate cool stay, you will not regret it ! Thanks a lot

We love coming to this magical woodland wonderland, every season has different aspects which bring joy. We have just stayed in the woodland, full of wild flowers, fairy lights and wonders. Such a wonderful place, and it feels like a privilege to know about this hidden Jem, just on the outskirts of the Lake District. A quirky, cosy, family orientated atmosphere, with clean and luxurious accommodation. Absolutely love love love 🥰 would highly recommend a night away here 🙊

Great place for a quiet break from the hustle and bustle of life. Ingenious accommodation in a shady glen in the woods. Everything you need just relax (you can even order your food delivered from the local supermarket). Andri was great with a local tip for wild swimming just what we needed. Do yourself a favour and book!
