The Arc House Glamping Pod Kit - 6.8m x 2.9m

The Arc House comes as a fully insulated glamping pod kit designed for year-round use. It is available in 3 sizes, but can be customised to other sizes if needed.

It is made in Britain using Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs), meaning that it is naturally insulated with a high level of energy efficiency.

Its capsule design makes it a show stopper and a massive selling point for a glamping site, eco-resort, or luxury retreat. They are also great for domestic use as a garden office or functional space.

Key Features:

  • Structural Insulated Panels (SIPs): Includes 98mm SIPs for the floor and walls, and 122mm panels for the roof.

  • Energy Efficient Design: Airtight construction and high-performance insulation help reduce heating and cooling costs, making the pod comfortable in all 12 months of the year.

  • Complete Pod Kit: Includes SIP panels, SIP joining splines, C24 structural timbers, UPVC windows and doors, Thermowood external cladding, treated timber feature panels, rubber roof system with trims and adhesive, and all necessary fixings. Everything you need to get set up.

  • Self-Build Ready: Straightforward to assemble with detailed instructions included. Professional installation is also available across the UK.

  • Fully Customisable With Optional Add Ons: The Arc House can be customised to fit your requirements, as well as having the option of coming with almost any add on you can image, from all types of furniture to electrical kits. You name it, we'll provide it.

About Our SIP Panels

SIPs, or Structural Insulated Panels, are advanced building materials made from a rigid insulating foam core sandwiched between two layers of structural board. In the Arc House, these panels form the core of the walls, roof, and floor.

What does this mean for you?

  • Exceptional thermal insulation - Avoid excessive heating bills with thermal class 2 & 3.

  • High structural strength - The average lifetime of these panels are 50 years.

  • Faster build times - panels slot together making it simple to build.

Planning Permission & the Caravan Act

One of the major advantages of the Arc House is that it has been designed to comply with the Caravan Act, which means that in many cases, planning permission may not be required.

Under the Caravan Sites and Control of Development Act 1960 and the Caravan Sites Act 1968, certain structures that qualify as “caravans” - including static pods like the Arc House - can be sited without formal planning consent, particularly when used as ancillary accommodation within the garden of a main dwelling.

However, planning regulations can vary, so it's always worth checking with your local authority. However, thanks to its compliance with the Act’s size and mobility requirements, the Arc House is a strong candidate for use without the need for a full planning application.
