Unite Young Adventurers in our Pod Village
Pod Village Accommodation at Phasels Wood, Hertfordshire
Our popular pod village is ideal for schools and groups looking for all the adventure of an outdoor residential with the extra comfort and warmth offered by our woodland pods.
With their adventurous feel and colourful interiors, the pods make a cosy all-year-round alternative to our bell tent villages. And by combining the excitement of outdoor adventure with a reassuring night-time setting, including night-toilets and lighting, they’re particularly suitable for younger children who might be spending their first night away from home.
For teachers and group leaders, our adult pods are a little haven of calm where you can unwind at the end of the day. With private rooms, a kitchenette and ensuite bathroom, they have everything you need to relax and recharge.
Designed with community in mind
With games and chill out areas at the heart of the camp, as well as a group campfire and teacher tipi, the pod village encourages children to spend their downtime together, so they can make new friendships and build closer bonds.
This creates a strong sense of community while you’re on camp, which will last well beyond your stay with us.
A great choice for children
The pods were a clear favourite. The children loved the storage space, how roomy they felt, and the novelty of staying somewhere so unique.
