Kent pub unveils new glamping pods

Three glamping pods have been unveiled at a Shepherd Neame pub, set in the Kent countryside.

The Woolpack at Benover in Yalding officially launched its new luxury pods, which are set in a secluded two-acre field at the back of the pub, to guests earlier this month.

It has taken licensee Renata Spatinova and her husband Dave Bastable around two years to see the project through to fruition, after applying for planning permission to establish them on their site.

The brand new pods can accommodate up to two adults and two children

The pods can sleep two adults and two children, and all have en suite shower rooms and tea and coffee-making facilities. Guests also have their own firepits.

“It has been a long project and I have had a few sleepless nights," says Spatinova. "But we are a good team – Dave comes up with the ideas and I provide the muscle to get it done. We are very excited about this new business venture.”
