Glamping pods are insulated, fully fitted holiday cabins that let guests stay in comfort all year. A PrefabX modular home glamping pod arrives complete with heating, a fitted bathroom, electrics and plumbing, installs in 2 to 3 days from a fixed price of £25,000, and can recover its cost in around a year as a holiday let on Airbnb and Booking.com.
A glamping pod is right for you if
At a realistic nightly rate and 68 percent occupancy, a modular home pod can recover its all in cost in roughly twelve months, then keep earning. Finance lets the bookings cover the repayments.
85mm insulated walls and proper heating mean it is comfortable in January, so you earn all year rather than for a short summer window.
It arrives fully fitted and unfolds in 2 to 3 days, so you can be taking bookings the same month rather than waiting out a build season.
The range
The Studio is the fastest payback for a compact one bed pod, while the Annexe gives two bedrooms with a choice of open plan living that photographs beautifully or a separate kitchen, ideal for families and groups.
Return on investment
Run it as a holiday let or Airbnb and it can recover its cost in as little as a year. At £150 a night and 68 percent occupancy a two bedroom unit grosses around £37,200 a year. Pick a layout and model your own site.
The lowest entry cost in the range, so a compact glamping cabin or one bed let recovers its outlay fast.
