Luxury Devon Glamping

Oakdown Holiday Park · Sidmouth · East Devon

Luxury Devon Glamping Pods

Primrose and Poppy — two spacious premier pods in The Shire at Oakdown. Three rooms, a covered deck, dogs welcome and the Jurassic Coast on the doorstep.

Primrose and Poppy are our two premier pods — the most spacious glamping option in The Shire. Three linked rooms, a generous covered deck and a proper dining area make them ideal for a family of four with a dog. They have been popular since the day they arrived and it is easy to see why.

Dogs are welcome. Clean Paws is a short walk from the pods. The Donkey Sanctuary trail starts at the park gate fifteen minutes away on foot.

Primrose and Poppy

The Premier Pods

Both premier pods are identical — the names are the only difference. Each has three linked rooms: a double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a central dining and kitchenette space. The rooms can be separated with curtains for privacy. They sleep a family of four comfortably with room for a dog.

The double bedroom has shelves for storing personal items and an under-bed storage box. The twin bedroom — which doubles as cushioned bench seating during the day — is light and airy. The central dining area connects both rooms and opens out to the covered deck.

Outside, a generous covered deck with a canopy provides space for the whole family whatever the weather. A love seat and a picnic table sit on the deck alongside the entrance. Parking is a short walk away.

Minimum stay: two nights. Both pods are non-smoking and pet friendly.
