Having used pods in the Lakes both in Langdale and Wasdale I have no issue at all, sited well they blend into the scenery and will leave no lasting trace ant the end of their servicable lifetime, just gives another option.

They're visually pleasant. Better than most tents. And caravans.

I guess you're right, as long as it doesn't attract wheeled suitcase types up Kinder.
