Picture the scene.

It's the height of summer, there isn't a cloud in sight, you're exhausted from a long day's hike, and you're in the Lake District with your significant other or group of friends.

What could top off the evening? A hot tub and some drinks.

For city folk, you have to travel for miles to find a nice remote setting with a log cabin. For Cumbrians, they practically neighbour them.

Across the region, there are dozens of glamping log cabins on offer. Yet some are vastly cheaper than others.

The Guardian looked at 'the best new camping and glampsites around the UK', considering festivals and glorious meadow spots, and came up with a comprehensive list.

Cosy glamping pods, Lake District

The Guardian said: "Hardrigg Hall, a farm near the village of Skelton, just north of the Lake District National Park boundary, has opened two glamping pods in the grounds.

"The pods have a double bed, sofabed, bathroom, kitchen, and deck. There are fire pits and barbecues to hire. Guests can take a guided tour of the historic farm, which has a Grade II-listed farmhouse with a pele tower dating back five centuries.

"Nearby are the ruins of late-14th-century Penrith Castle. There are walks and cycle paths from the farm, or it is a 20-minute drive to Aira Force waterfall and Ullswater in the Lake District."

Their website states: "The pods sleep up to 2 adults and 2 children under 16 making them ideal for families but also when travelling as a couple.

"With a double bed, sofa bed and en-suite bathroom, the kitchen is also fully equipped so all you need to bring is food and drinks and enjoy your holiday or short break at Hardrigg Hall!

"Your own private decking area with seating means you can enjoy the magnificent views."
