Wonderful location and setting. The pod had everything you could need wrapped up in a neat little package. Had a wonderful weekend stay and wouldn't hesitate to recommend to anyone considering it.

I stayed in a Rowan pod, just myself and my dog which was perfect for my stay. The location of the pod was perfect for accessing various towns to explore. It is in a peaceful spot on beautiful family farm which was picturesque to have as a view from your windows. The pod was cosy and warm, capturing all the days sun and had all the amenities I needed. The hot tub and BBQ hut were also a great addition. The coffee shop and farm shops were very handy too. I would stay again. Thanks for a lovely Stay. Michael and Belle

Returned to airhouses after a great stay at the hawthorn pod. Really liked the look of the Rowan pod with the BBQ hut. While was still a wonderful stay there were a few issues at Rowan pod. All cooking must take place out in BBQ hut as, unlike other pod, there is no way of preparing food in the pod. This was made all the more disappointing as there was only enough coals in bag to prepare one meal on arrival. There was also a terrible stench of eggs from the sink drain and bathroom/shower drain that rendered the pod inhospitable for long periods until was aired out. Also have to keep extraction fan in bathroom running all weekend to remove smell. There was also an electrical issue with the light switches. Had to play around with dimmer switch to get lights to stay on without flickering and every now and then they would still just completely turn themselves off. Still a great stay and staff are, as last time, very polite and helpful. I will return again but will return to a different property.

We are so sorry you felt there were issues with your stay and that you were not aware that the Rowan doesn't have a hob inside the pod, that is why it comes with its own BBQ hut. There is also a Microwave in the shed and this is in the description on our website. In the silver bin by the BBQ hut there should be plenty of charcoal for the BBQ. Damian checks it at every change over but if it was missed you just had to let us know and we would have filled it up for you. This is always in addition to the small starter amount left in the BBQ hot itself. Likewise, if you had mentioned the smell and the lights we would also have been able to help. We went in just before you arrived to check on the flowers and there definitely wasn't a smell. We would of course have helped you sort it out had you said anything. We are obviously devastated to hear your stay in The Rowan was anything less than amazing - as you can see from all our positive reviews normally people love The Rowan. We are glad you feel you want to come back and hope to welcome you soon.

Perfect first time glamping pod experience!

We had a wonderful time at the Airhouse Rowan Pod! The pod itself was clean and tidy. The BBQ area was brilliant and easy to use and the hot tub was fab after a long days walking. On our trip we visited local surrounding castle and abbeys and even drove up to North Berwick for a day at the beach so the location was great if you have a car!

Had an amazing 3 night stay whilst I was travelling around Scotland riding my bike. The pod was just perfect, comfy with everything you need including great WiFi which was an added bonus! One of my favourite parts was the BBQ hut, weather was a little changeable during my stay but no bother when you're bbq-ing indoors :D! Oh and there is an awesome hot tub which was just perfect after a day on the trails. Will definitely be back in the future :)

We had a fantastic 3 night stay at the Airhouses. The pods are cosy and beautifully clean and the customer service is great. The surroundings are stunning with beautiful walks and wildlife and even in winter, relaxing in the hot tub with the snow falling, perfect. We’ll definitely be back again.

The Rowan Pod at Airhouses was a perfect place to stay for a special celebration. The peace and quiet, together with the stunning views make the location perfect. Everything you need is provided and we loved cooking over the charcoal fire in the hut. Watching the stars whilst sitting in the hot tub, is something that you don't experience every day. Only thing missing in the pod is a wooden spoon! Make sure you complete the brilliant treasure hunt and feed the animals.

The Rowan pod was immaculate, had everything we needed for a perfect weekend away. The bbq hut was fantastic to sit out in the evenings, the hottub was private and looked over stunning views. The owners were friendly and welcoming, the baby goats were unbelievably cute. The whole weekend was perfect.

We visited an Airhouse Lodge a few years ago (which we loved) and recently decided to try out the Rowan Pod. The Pod was cosy and comfortable being equipped with everything needed for a short break - decorated really tastefully with a very comfortable bed (we slept soundly). The outside BBQ Hut and Hot Tub were lovely additions which we used on a daily basis. The Hot Tubs are checked twice a day and a great way to unwind/relax in. The location is beautiful, scenery is just stunning and provided us with a much needed relaxing break. Everything we required, idyllic, affordable luxury.

Our stay was everything and more plus a fantastic get away in such a beautiful rural setting. The owners clearly take a lot of pride in their business to deliver a high standard of service and general maintenance on site.
Personal touches make all the difference for stays like this as we received detailed pre-arrival information, complimentary welcome pack of local produce in our pod and Damien touched base with us to make sure we had everything we needed on site. The pod plus all the other communal areas was immaculate, hot tub checked twice a day and the bbcue hut was a well equipped quirky add on which has plenty of space to dine in. For those not wanting to cook there is an ‘honesty shop’ on site with very tasty local produce meals and treats available to buy at reasonable prices. The pod literally had everything you need for a luxury get away from the fluffy towels and toiletries to the robes and slippers for the hot tub. The site is only a short drive to other beautiful areas within the Scottish Borders such as Lauder and Melrose. Would highly recommend a stay at Airhouses and we hope to return again in the future.

Best weekend away we have had in an age. We booked because 3 nights in a pod was virtually the same price as one night in Edinburgh hotel during the Fringe and we had a business meeting to attend in town. This was so much better. The pod,bbq hut and hot tub were spotlessly clean. Every detail had been thought of and the hosts are super efficient and nice! Best business trip ever! Will be back.

One of the best places I've been for a few days away. Everyone there is lovely and the views are breath taking. The perfect place to recharge the batteries. Myself and partner visited last year and couldn't wait to come back again this year. The pods are simple but cater for all your needs, and the hot tub is the ideal place to sit, relax and take in the views. We can't wait to return in the future.

We had a great time from start to finish. The on-site shop is great and a fantastic idea. We ordered a box from local shop which was in fridge for our arrival. We used the BBQ hut as a fire pit at night after the hot tub.
The only down side was there was lots of flys due to the rain and we were being attacked by swarms while in the hot tub or walking around the farm.

We had a great time at The Rowan Pod. Very relaxing in tranquil surroundings. The pod was perfectly clean and the bed was super comfy. Duvet, pillows and duvet cover felt like luxury, so much so that I asked where the duvet cover was from so I can get one of my own! Hot tub was a perfect size for 2, we used it both nights. The little bbq hut is a great feature to have and was really easy to use. Loved seeing the donkeys, goats and alpacas! We will definitely be returning at some point and will be recommending to others!

The pod was in perfect condition, very comfortable and cosy. We loved having our own hot tub and bbq hut and made plenty of use of these. Damien was brilliant and always on hand to provide any help or advice we needed. The only downside is that other than walking around the farm, there wasn’t anything to do in the local village unless we decided to drive to Lauder. Other than that, would definitely recommend this to anyone!

We had a fabulous family break at Airhouses. It was a relaxing, peaceful and beautiful place to stay, with lots for children to explore.
My eight year old had the best time and fell in love with all the animals. The owners were incredibly welcoming and organised super Easter activities, including meeting chicks and making willow nests. The pop-up coffee shop was great.
The Rowan pod was luxurious and clever, with everything we needed and toasty warm underfloor heating. There was a lovely welcome pack which was much appreciated. We had fun toasting marshmallows in the BBQ hut too.
Other favourite activities included feeding the animals, visiting the nearby Roman museum and stargazing from the hot tub. We made so many happy memories here and we'd 100% recommend a stay at Airhouses.

Had a fab time in my wee pod! There was everything I needed for my stay. Plus a much appreciated welcome pack. The pod is neat, clean and very cosy. The view of the sunrise from your window is a great way to start the day! And you can't beat ending it watching the stars from the hot tub. There are great paths to walk along around the farm and meet all the animals.

This was a fantastic get away and we will be returning! I honestly enjoyed every moment as did my partner. Everything about it was romantic and relaxing. The couple on the farm was lovely and kind souls, we really liked there company and wow I'd defintly go in winter once it's dark, it gets really dark so when your in the hot tub it perfect! It's calming. We did not drive so walking was a massive thing for us but we don't mind that and honestly it was good to be out with nature again and we ended up wlaking for miles! And it was an experience defintly plenty to do. Honestly can not recommend this place enough!

Thank you to everyone help make my partners birthday week special! We will be back!

We stayed at the Rowan Pod for 3 nights to celebrate my partner's 50th birthday. It was wonderful - time, space and peace to reconnect, relax and restore. Despite the weather being, well, Scotland in November, it was easy to navigate between hot tub/ pod/ BBQ hut, and we were blessed with a couple of clear nights. Watching shooting stars from the hot tub was heavenly, we'll definitely be back.

Absolutely brilliant place to stay. The setting was beautiful, the Rowan Pod was comfortable and well equipped, the BBQ hut and hot tub made for a very relaxing stay. Outstanding customer service, the app you receive pre arrival is a great touch as it was so useful.
The location not far from the A68 made it easy to get out and explore the area.
The only downside which is nothing to do with the accommodation is that there is no pub or restaurant in walking distance as the one in Oxton is shut down.

Well where shall I start, when we arrived at the Rowan pod WOW it was amazing the location is magnificent and the views are beautiful, the host’s really made the perfect stay for us, we were looking for a little oasis peaceful and tranquil space to stay everything you could possibly need was there. No request was too small Damian is so friendly, and the animals are beautiful too easy to get to very nicely set up, absolutely perfect in every way, we are definitely coming back to stay. All the stresses of work on the second day dissolved and We’ve never felt so relaxed on holiday in such a long time. It was so nice we even booked another night because we didn’t want to leave!!! I would definitely recommend this place for anyone who wants to unwind and recuperate. Definitely 5 Stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Thank you again from Mr and Mrs Kerr

The Rowan pod has everything you need for a relaxing holiday. Beautiful countryside, hot tub and barbecue hut. The pod itself is quirky and cute. We were lucky enough to have a fox stroll past the pod and a young male deer wander around the field only 20 feet or so away. He was very handsome.
The owners were on hand should you need anything and the welcome basket was a real treat full of local goodies.
We would highly recommend the Rowan pod as a great couples getaway.

We have just returned from a wonderful break at this fabulous place.
From the moment we arrived we kept being surprised at just how lovely the pod, bbq house and hot tub were. All these things together, made for a wonderful and relaxing time away.
Lovely little touches in the pod, robes, slippers, toiletries and welcome box.
We were made to feel very welcome and have no doubt we will return!
The pods were very comfortable and clean and loved the countryside we were nestled in.
The owners have thought of everything to help make the stay as comfortable and easy as possible. 10/10!

If you value peace, relaxation and bbq, this is the place for you. The setting is lovely, with lots of animals to make friends with. Not far from Edinburgh if the mood takes you, but there is plenty to do locally without going into the city. The owners are great. We love the bbq hut and it offered fabulous shelter from the gusting wind! It is such a novelty to be able to cook really good food on charcoal without worrying about what the weather is doing. We also ordered meat boxes which were in the fridge on arrival, all of which was of a good quality. The hot tub was also amazing. If you need a bit of space to recharge the batteries, you will appreciate time at the Rowan Pod.

Amazing, The layout inside and outside the Pod has been well thought through.
Martin popped over shortly after we arrived to introduce himself and offered advice on things to see and do and help with anything if we needed it, which we didn't, as the app they provide, gives you pretty much all the info you would need. We wanted a peaceful break away and that's what we got, the only noises to be heard were those of nature. Chilled in the hot tub every evening then cooked dinner in the BBQ hut, it was bliss. The view from the hot tub was stunning, and there are plenty of walks to go on around the property and an abundance of animals and birds to be see. The honesty shop is jam pack with local goodies and we took a walk down to Carfraemill hotel one day for lunch, the food there was very good and some beautiful scenery on the way there. Only complaint is we didn't book a longer stay. Can't fault anything Best break we have had in a long time. Thanks to the owners for creating such a lovely place. We will definitely book again.

What an absolutely amazing long weekend we had in the Rowan Pod. Initially I was concerned about the size as myself and my partner are pretty tall, but on arrival my fears immediately went away. Spotlessly clean and tidy and with everything you could possibly need for a little home away from home. Can’t wait to book up and visit again soon!

Airhouses is an escape to peace and tranquillity - we have stayed now 4 times (3x The lodge and 1x Rowan Pod) and every time we've been the lodge/pod have been immaculate. Everything provided for you from the forks to the sheets and the hand wash to the dressing gowns are outstanding. The hot tub is always ready for when you arrive and is checked twice a day. They have an onsite farm shop which is full of nice treats and ice cream from an award winning parlour nearby. You won't regret booking this - go now

We stayed for 4 nights in March in the Rowan Pod. Loved everything about it. The Rowan pod is perfect. The wet room looks tiny, but its a great size for showering. The bed is really comfy. The views are amazing. We especially loved the Kota for cooking steaks and chops on an evening and the hot tub was great to relax in. There are some great walks from the farm or from Lauder just a short drive away. All the animals on the farm are very friendly, our favourite is Apple the Highland Cow. We will definitely stay again in the Rowan Pod and would also like to stay in one of the cottages with our family. Thank you for a great stay.

Loved our 3 night stay in The Rowan Pod. It's in a beautiful setting, surrounded by hills, trees, & fields. Spent an hour in the hot tub each evening, bbq our dinner & breakfast in the bbq hut. The pod is quite spacious, with the (comfy)bed & bedding folded away, then to have seating & a table to sit at, was great. We had a really small fridge, but there was a larger one in another small hut, so plenty of storage for food & drinks. Shower & toilet area looks small, but shower was great, did not feel cramped at all. Some nice walks around the farm, with lots of petting animals, mostly rescue. Even able to get rid of our food waste each morning to Truffle & Snuffle, the 2 pigs, who came bounding out, as soon as they heard you, so funny! A great wee shop there too, with lots of supplies & goodies, with an honesty box. They really have thought of everything, we will definitely be back.

We decided to use here as a base for 3 nights on our motorbike tour and so pleased we did

From start to finish everything was perfect
Accomodation was immaculate
The meat order was superb
And the bbq hut was ideal regardless of the weather
Communication with the owners was second to none and the staff were all very polite and helpful

We would have no hesitation in recommending Airhouse as a great place to explore, relax and enjoy

The very minute we pulled up to the farm we spotted a deer just ambling along the tree line. Fantastic we thought, we’ve spotted a deer on the first day. That would have done us for the whole week as we don’t spot deer at all really where we live so to have spotted one on our doorstep was a real good start. Little did we know that was just the start.
The pod itself is excellently made and the design is clever. Space is a premium, but we never once felt it was an issue. It actually made it feel much more cosy. The weather was warm and sunny, so we made sure the hot tub got plenty of use. The tubs were inspected twice a day so they were always clean.
The BBQ hut got quite a bit of use too and even though the pod only had a microwave, again, the lack of an oven or hob, wasn’t a problem. Besides, there are plenty of restaurants and pubs nearby if you can’t face another BBQ.
The highlight for us were the animals. The sheep were just fantastic and we spent a fair bit of time with them. Also the ponies, pigs, goats, alpacas, donkeys and the cows made it a special getaway. We both love animals so spending time on a farm with these was just perfect. Huge shoutout to Apple too, who has a near perfect temperament and personality. We even managed to spot a handful of wild animals ranging from badgers to bats.
We arrived with the expectation of having a nice relaxing break but never expected to have a perfect break. We cannot thank the staff enough for making it a break never to be forgotten. We are also booking for next year!!!

Beautiful romantic getaway for two - highly recommended. The pod caters for your every need, it is beautiful and very cute especially if you are a couple! The bed is very comfortable and super easy to assemble. The BBQ hut is ideal for having a camp fire whilst keeping dry. The BBQ hut and the Hot tub are a really short skip and hop away on decking from the pod, no need to walk on stones!

We stayed at the Rowan Pod August Bank Holiday and had a fantastic time! The Pod is amazingly well equipped for such a small space. It really was a home from home with the added bonus of the Hot Tub for 2. We loved the BBQ hut and used it two of the three nights. The Pod was spotlessly clean and everything looked brand new! We will certainly be returning. Thank You for a fantastic end to the Summer holidays!

The time we spent at the Rowan Pod was bliss. The drive to get to the Airhouses is beautiful. The Rowan Pod is funky, cosy, functional, creative and includes everything you need for a great holiday. Bonus being the BBQ hut and hot tub! We loved all of the friendly farm animals that we visited daily. Plenty of walks to explore the farm and surrounding areas. All staff were very friendly and a special thank you to Carol and Damien. We will definitely be back.

We had a great stay the pod had everything you needed. We only had to take toothpaste/toothbrush and food/drink. There was also a lovely compliments bag with goodies which was so thoughtful and a nice surprise ! The hot tub had some issues the first day but this was quickly resolved. The robes and slippers were a great touch and very handy. Loved the mood lightening in the pod and the way everything folded away neatly it’s a great space!

Stayed at the airpod to bring in the new year. Had an amazing time! The pod is pure luxury and is stocked with everything you could possibly need including tinfoil! Carol and Martin really have thought of everything. It was very comfortable and actually had more room than I expected. Indoor bqq is ideal! I even cooked scrambled eggs in it. And the best part of course was sitting in the hotub at night, pitch black and so peaceful! If your looking to relax and unwind this is definitely the place to do it. Highly recommend and we will definitely be returning!

Me and my partner stayed in the Rowan pod for 3 nights, it was comfortable and peaceful
We enjoyed our stay and would definitely stay again.
The only thing we thought we could have used was a small microwave but other than that, everything was perfect, enough towels, bed easy to put together with very clear instructions, hot tub worked perfectly and really clean.
Our stay was comfortable and the hosts were great, the wifi worked well for us as did the TV and iPod docking station.

The Rowan pod is built to a really high specification and premium quality. It's set in idyllic farm land and is away from the other properties so you get lots of privacy.
The website sells the pod as glamping but it feels like a very luxurious hotel room.
The only downside is that you need to make the bed out of the 2 bench seats which means there's no inside table once you set up the bed. Not a problem whilst we were there as the weather was lovely and there were tables and chairs outside to use. Also I guess this is the glamping bit! I also found the roll out mattress a bit thin so the bed was very hard but my husband didn't have any trouble with it.
There are also limited cooking facilities but we enjoyed a delicious cooked breakfast on the bbq in the gorgeous bbq Hut.
A great welcome from Martin who recommended the park and ride for our trip into Edinburgh the following day and showed us how to use the hot tub.

Thank you for your review and we are glad you enjoyed the Rowan Pod. No need to worry about the weather as once you are in the BBQ hut with the fire going and the door closed it is lovely and warm. There is plenty of room to cook and eat with the trays that are round the actual fire pit. They lift out to go on your knee if you wish. The cooking facilities are great once you get used to cooking everything over an open fire! Inside the actual Pod, the bed has been designed to go away easily and quickly so that you can set the table up again for during the day and again, it is toasty warm with the underfloor heating. Again many thanks indeed for taking the time to write a lovely review.

Had such a wonderful stay in the Rowan Pod, it would make a great base for longer stays but we spent most of our time just relaxing on the farm or in the hot tub. Great place for a short break! Everything was so clean and modern and well thought out.

if you are looking for a nice getaway, here is the place ... there are a number of accommodation options available, we opted for the rowan pod .... own hot tub... nice little BBQ hut .... what else can anyone want ..(most likely book another visit next year). especially if your looking for some alone time with your partner away from the hustle and bustle of the city..
the pod is a little small but has everything you would need for a relaxing stay... the only thing that was perhaps a drawback was the fact you couldn't play music outside... it would have been nice to relax in the hot tub with some music ,, but all the same understandable as some people would play a bit loud and disrupt other lodges etc.... maybe relaxing the rule would be a good idea but require it to be played low ....

Thank you so much for your positive review and we are glad you enjoyed your stay at the wee Rowan Pod. We note your comment on music outside but we feel that any music outside would startle the abundance of wild life which visitors to Airhouses enjoy seeing so much. Relaxing in the hot tub at dusk and listening to the sound of the owls, and seeing two or three little deer walking past the hot tub is an experience in itself. We do hope you will visit us in the future and again, many thanks indeed.
