With beautiful views that shift gently through the seasons, Ed’s Pod is a peaceful little hideaway overlooking the tranquil Top Lake - an ideal spot to read, paint, fish, or simply sit and take it all in.
Perfect for couples or solo explorers, this rustic wooden pod offers a simple, refreshing escape into nature. Whether you’ve spent the day walking local trails, sketching the scenery, or casting a line into the water (with a licence), Ed’s Pod is a comfortable base to return to.
Tucked beside the lake, the pod opens out onto a private, enclosed grassed area that leads directly onto your own decking overlooking the Top Lake – a peaceful spot to listen to the breeze through the trees and watch for passing wildlife.
Inside, it’s cosy and inviting, with just what you need for a restful stay surrounded by nature - this is glamping with a wild side. Bring a book, your sketchpad, or a fishing rod - this is a place that invites creativity, reflection, and the freedom to just be.
And when you feel like exploring, you’re just a 10-minute walk from the heart of Clare - a beautifully preserved medieval town, full of history and charm. Wander the streets, browse the independent shops, enjoy a riverside walk, or relax in one of the friendly local pubs.
For those wanting to explore further, Ed’s Pod is perfectly placed for day trips to Cambridge, Newmarket, Bury St Edmunds, Sudbury, Colchester, and even the beautiful Suffolk coast.
Rustic, simple, and full of inspiration, Ed’s is the perfect cosy countryside pod for anyone who finds joy in the simple pleasures of lakeside life.

** Dogs **
We’re so happy to welcome you and your four-legged companions! To ensure a safe and enjoyable stay for everyone – guests, staff, wildlife, and dogs alike – we kindly ask you to follow a few simple guidelines:
· Please keep dogs on leads in all communal areas. This helps keep everyone safe, including children, ducks, other guests, and your own furry friend.
· Each dog-friendly accommodation has its own secure fenced area, so your pup can enjoy some freedom in a safe space.
· Dogs are not allowed in the lakes, as we have carefully managed fish stocks and want to ensure safety for both pets and wildlife.
· And finally, we’ve tucked away a secret jar of treats in every dog-friendly accommodation – a little surprise for our special canine guests!
