The pod sits in green fields just 8 miles from Ashbourne. It's quiet enough to hear yourself think but close enough to civilization that you won't need to hunt for food.

About Yes Deer

Yes Deer is a luxurious single-storey pod in rural Derbyshire. This adults-only studio-style accommodation sits on a working farm where you can actually see deer from your window! Perfect for couples seeking privacy with countryside views that'll make your Instagram followers weep with envy.

The pod sits in green fields just 8 miles from Ashbourne. It's quiet enough to hear yourself think but close enough to civilization that you won't need to hunt for food. The log-fired hot tub is absolute bliss - nothing says "I'm winning at life" like sipping prosecco under the stars while your body turns to jelly in bubbling water. And from 2025, it'll have a canopy roof for year-round naked soaking (we won't tell if you don't).

Inside, this studio pod packs a punch with a king-size bed, smart kitchen area with combi oven/microwave, 2-ring hob and fridge. The shower room features a large walk-in shower that's big enough for... well, that's entirely up to you. There's also a 38" Smart TV, though let's be honest - you didn't come here to watch Bargain Hunt.

Nearby attractions include Ashbourne (8 miles), Matlock (15.7 miles), Bakewell with its famous puddings (16.6 miles) and the magnificent Chatsworth House (20.4 miles). The local pub is just 0.1 miles away - close enough to crawl back if you overdo the local ales.

Yes Deer Reviews

Yes Deer what a great retreat, everything you could ask for. The host was great an showed us the few things needed when we arrived but also was there to assist if needed with anything during the stay! The pod was immaculate and furnished to a very high standard. Great place to stay with great hosts! Would stay again for sure!!
We had a wonderful stay in yes deer pod. Jane met us on arrival and went through the facilities and the hot tub. The pod was immaculate with toiletries and slippers provided too . Jane had decorated the pod knowing it was my birthday. Watching the deer in the field was such a bonus whilst sitting out on the patio or in the hot tub. We would recommend Denston farm shop and cafe too. We hope to return.
Esther
My husband and I really enjoyed our stay! So remote from the normal world and a chance to simply get away in such a beautiful pod! The cleanliness was pristine along with the information guide, which happily gave us a massive walkthrough of the pod for all the facilities and gave us the best options for efficiency especially when it came to the hot tub and cooking. Jane met us when we arrived and greeted us so kindly and showed us around the pod and explained the pod aswell and spoke regarding the local activities and safety around the areas. With the inclusion of Deers on your front porch!? Our only mini downside was that the shower head just needed tightening slightly and the wifi would cut out very rarely. But don't let these stop you from coming! the level of hospitality was above and beyond. On one occasion We asked Jane if she could light the hot tub for us while we were out for the day and without question she agreed and sorted the fire for us and what a treat it was on returning! We would highly recommend the pods to anybody as they were simply perfect!
Beautiful pod, fabulous setting, very peaceful location. Great attention to detail, everything you need to hand. Hot tub really easy to use. A very warm welcoming host. Definitely worth a visit.
WOW... ...what a find! Our host, Jane, was fantastic. She met us on site when we arrived and ran through everything we needed to know for our stay. The pod had been trimmed up for my Husbands birthday and there was a bottle of prosecco for us. The pod was very clean and decorated to a really high standard. Lovely touches like a toiletry pack, plenty of tea and coffee, slippers, games and books. The log fired outdoor hot tub was amazing. Jane got that ready for us while we were out walking and it was just what we needed when we got back. Perfect location for walking and visiting some lovely places in the Peak District, and a 5 minute walk from The Crown Inn where we had drinks and a meal. If you want luxury glamping, book this you will not be disappointed!
Michael
Perfect location, surrounded by countryside. Only 5 minute trip into Ashbourne town. The pod was amazing, the photos really dont do it justice. We had booked for two nights, I wish we had booked for longer. We really enjoyed our stay and we will definitely be booking again in the future. Jane was so welcoming and friendly. She showed us around everything and showed us how things worked which was helpful.
We booked the yes deer lodge for our mini moon as we got married the day before. Just the pictures alone wowd us so seeing the pod in real life well and truely knocked us off our feet. Jane the owner met us to talk us through everything which was so helpful and she even added touches such as petals and wooden hearts around the room. There is a folder with everthing in from resteraunts to walk and all the appliances and how they work. The pod itself was so clean and all the little details honestly were breathtaking we could not believe our luck! The wood fired hot tub was absolutely amazing we havent seen one before and we loved setting it up every night and looking at the stars! Just a short 4 minute walk away was the village pub and not even a 15 minute drive was Ashbourne centre. We cant wait to re book next year for our 1 year anniversary.
Rajvir
Our stay at Yes Deer Pod was absolutely incredible thanks to our amazing host, Jane. From the moment we arrived, she went above and beyond to make sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable and enjoyable stay. The pod itself was cozy, clean, and beautifully decorated, with all the amenities we could ask for. Her hospitality truly made our experience unforgettable. She also provided us with great recommendations for local attractions. Her attention to detail and genuine care for her guests really set the Pods apart from any other accommodation we have stayed in. We cannot recommend Yes Deer Pod and Jane enough. If you're looking for a peaceful and charming getaway with exceptional hospitality, this is the place to be. Me and my Fianc have came home feeling lighter and stress free. Thank you Jane, for a truly fabulous stay! Best Wishes from Raj and Brad xx
Beautiful pod in lush green countryside a lovely getaway for a few days. Very clean, lovely interior decor & a comfortable stay. Jane was very helpful & welcoming.
We stayed at Yes Deer and was absolutely taken back at how stunning the pod and location was! Jane arrived shortly after we arrived and was so welcoming she really made us feel really comfortable. The inside of the pod was absolutely immaculate and the hot tub is super easy to use! Everything in the pod is extremely comfortable. Yes deer was just what we needed, so peaceful and relaxing we cannot wait to visit again. Massive thank you to Jane for keeping them so tidy and making us feel welcome.
Beautiful pod. High quality furnishings & equipment. Attention to detail was amazing with personalised items to the pod. Very comfortable bed. The hot tub was lovely and heated very quickly. The outdoor surroundings were lovely with the owners personal herd of deer to see and with only the sound of birdsong to be heard. Completely relaxed from the moment we got there. Jane was quick to reply and very glad to help. Definitely recommend.
Jordan
Lovely stay at an incredible place, nice and quiet. Very relaxing atmosphere. Great facilities and hot tub was perfect. Hope to stay again in the very near future.
Joshua
This place is perfect for a UK get away! ! Jane greeted us on arrival and gave us a walkthrough on how everything works which was incredibly helpful! The location was very ideal for what we wanted, a rural escape that wasnt too far away from attractions. We loved our stay at the pod and will definitely be back!! A massive thank you is owed to Jane for the kind service she provided throughout our stay!! We will be back!!
Judith
Yes Deer is absolutely perfection! The pods are furnished to the highest standard and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Every detail has been considered and provided with thoughtful extras of Prosecco and chocolates awaiting guests on arrival. Faultless attention to detail has been given with regards to cleanliness. Our host, Jane, was so friendly, attentive and considerate and only too happy to share her local knowledge and recommendations of places to visit. The hot tub was a great way to relax after a day spent exploring and afforded complete privacy. We had a fantastic stay and will certainly be returning. We cant thank the hosts enough for their hospitality, they went out of their way to ensure our stay was perfect. Cant wait to return.

A perfect getaway for a quiet, romantic break. First time glamping & we were very impressed with the quality of the pod and everything in it. Yes Deer was also larger than expected, an added bonus!
Highly Recommend. Faultless is not enough praise for the stay we have just had.The pod was spotless and very well equipped. From start to end, everything just clicked. Jane and Phil are the best hosts we have ever had. Loved the Deer. We will be back without fail.
Such an amazing stay. Jane made sure we had everything we needed and all the information to make the most of our stay. The pod was amazing. Never stayed so where so clean and thought out. All the finishing touches made it extra special. Incredible hot tub and extra comfy bed never slept so well away from home Will definitely be back.
Hattie
This was a beautiful and luxurious pod and it provided everything we needed to have a relaxing holiday. The facilities provided were great and the information pack told us everything we needed to know about the pod and the local area. Jane was very friendly and helpful. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone looking for a relaxing couples holiday.
Alexandra
An absolutely perfect holiday property! The property is beautifully presented and has everything you could need for a relaxing break. The pod itself was cozy and quiet, and beautifully decorated. The hot tub was easy to use and the guest booklet had extra information about local amenities, sites and local country walks. The location was stunning, with regular sitings of the deer and very peaceful surroundings. The owner, Jane, had thought of everything and made settling in a breeze. The little details really show the consideration and care Jane has for guests, and we couldn't have been happier. Thank you for a fabulous stay!
We stayed for 3 nights recently and really loved our time in yes deer! Jane welcomed us & was so lovely! Prosecco & chocolate on arrival!
Beautifully clean and cosy pod, nestled away from main roads in a quiet rural setting. Jane the owner was friendly and could not have been more helpful. Very nice pub The Crown Inn just a couple of minutes walk up the road and plenty of farm shops and other amenities 15 mins drive away. We will definitely be going back.
Amie Louise
Beautifully decorated and designed very well. kitchen more than enough and plenty of space for 2 of us. Was a perfect little getaway. Loved the fact they came to personally greet us and welcome us and went through the facilities. We loved every minute, thank you
Really enjoyed the stay. Jane is an excellent host, Chocolate and Bubbly was a nice touch. Great Hot tub, warms up very fast and keeps on getting warmer. Am sure we will be staying again soon to explore the area further. had everything you could want for a break. If you do go here, you won't be disappointed.
Sophie
My partner and I learned we were the first guests at the new Yes Deer pod and it was an absolute pleasure! The placement of the pods next to the deer was fantastic in addition to the wonderful farm and wildlife in the village. The pod itself was very modern and cosy and a very luxurious snug hot tub perfect for a romantic couple. The welcome guide that the hosts had prepared was very very useful including some amazing photography from our host Jane herself! Another aspect we absolutely cannot fault was the kindness and hospitality from Jane herself, very helpful and welcoming which was a lovely extra touch plus the bubbly and the chocolate!
