Whether you’re staying in one of our cozy glamping pods, pitching a tent on a quiet grass pitch, or parking up your camper van, here are 7 simple ways to embrace the art of being lazy — the kind that leaves you recharged, content, and quietly restored.
A Moment of Calm, A World of Wonder
At Prospect House Farm, our glamping pods and camping pitches are set in the serene countryside of Scarborough, offering the perfect environment for those who want to unwind. Imagine waking up to the soft sound of birds singing and the cool, fresh air. With no deadlines or rush, it’s easy to settle into the peaceful surroundings and feel time slow down.
Take a moment to stop and breathe. Feel the warm sun on your face or the cool breeze through the trees. Here, the world moves at a slower pace, giving you space to relax and simply be.
1. Wake Up Naturally to the Sounds of Nature
No alarms. No rush. Just birdsong, fresh morning air, and the soft light of a new day. Whether you’re tucked up in a pod or unzipping your tent, mornings at Prospect House Farm are all about easing in.
Start your day with:
- A stretch under the sky
- A steaming mug of tea or coffee
- A sense of stillness that sets the tone for everything that follows
2. Let Your Surroundings Set the Pace
Our site near Scarborough and the North Yorkshire coast is designed for stillness. Here, there’s no itinerary, no traffic — just open space and natural beauty.
- Stroll through meadows
- Wander woodland trails
- Sit under a tree and do absolutely nothing
Let the land lead. It knows how to slow you down.
3. Rest, Your Way — No Guilt, No Clock
There’s no right way to rest here — only your way.
- Glamping guests can soak in private hot tubs or snooze in king-sized beds
- Campers can read by the fire, doze in hammocks, or drift off to birdsong
No pressure. No schedules. Just real, restorative rest.
4. Reconnect Without the Noise
You won’t find Wi-Fi or notifications pulling you away from the moment. What you will find is space — to talk, reflect, and reconnect.
- Couples find closeness without distraction
- Families enjoy quality time
- Solo travellers rediscover their own rhythm
It’s not about disconnecting from the world — it’s about reconnecting with yourself.
5. Enjoy the Beauty of Doing Less
There’s something magical about slow living. At Prospect House Farm, that could look like:
- Watching clouds drift by
- Brewing coffee slowly
- Wandering without a destination
Simple things become meaningful when you have time to notice them.
6. Let the Skies Be Your Entertainment
When the sun sets, the sky puts on a show. We’re part of a Dark Sky Reserve, so whether you’re soaking in a hot tub or gazing up from your tent, the stargazing is spectacular.
- Spot constellations
- Make a wish on a shooting star
- Just breathe it all in
7. Take the Lazy Feeling Home With You
The best part? Lazy isn’t something you leave behind. After a few days here, you’ll find yourself walking slower, breathing deeper, and remembering that life doesn’t always have to be rushed.
