Tucked away on the edge of the Pennines behind the heritage site of Ellenroad Steam Mill, our 6 glamping pods offer the perfect blend of countryside calm and city convenience. Just outside the charming village of Newhey, and within easy reach of both Manchester and Leeds, this is where you unwind.
Designed with our guests in mind, each pod is a private sanctuary—combining the charm of nature with the indulgence of boutique accommodation. Think plush bedding, sleek en-suites, and curated interiors that feel more spa retreat than campsite.
Step outside to your own decked terrace, complete with firepit, hot tub, and panoramic lodge side views—ideal for sipping wine under the stars or greeting the morning with a slow coffee. The site also offers secure private parking and electric gated access, ensuring peace of mind throughout your stay.
Whether you’re escaping the city for a restorative break, celebrating something special, or simply craving space to breathe, this is glamping at its finest—serene, stylish, and effortlessly close to it all.
Distance from Manchester: 30mins
Distance from Leeds: 40 mins
We are a family business that has lived and worked the land in the area for generations. At the Calmwater Hideaway, you may catch a glimpse of the alpacas, the sheep, and our horses, to name but a few.
We invite all guests who stay with us to relax and focus on what life has to offer. Although being outside and at one with nature, luxury is not compromised, and you will be sure to sit back and relax in the premium facilities offered at Calmwater Hideaway.
