Dave and Lesley Morby’s newly opened bed and Breakfast, situated off the beaten track between Stirling and Perth, near the village of Dunning, was already onto a winning formula.  However, they were looking to expand their business to incorporate more letting rooms, but extending the existing building would have been expensive and disruptive.

We were contacted to design and construct five Eco Pod ‘Hotel style’ rooms.

“Five Star in The Fresh Air”  

The concept is quite simple, take the comforts and facilities of a high class Hotel suite that we all enjoy staying in from time to time.  Then incorporate this into an Eco friendly structure which is quick to construct, can be place where the clients want, and be cost effective whilst not effecting the existing business and profits.

The pods internal floor area is 20m2, this includes a sleeping/sitting area, large bathroom with walk in shower, vanity sink unit and WC.  They are designed to cater for Scotland’s inclement weather using a clever three stage insulating system, giving superb thermal properties.  These products are made from recycled plastic. The pods will be warm and inviting in winter, yet also cool in summer.

Running costs will be kept to a minimum with the additional benefits of low energy LED lights and  heating.
