Peaceful site with beautiful well equipped pods.
Camping pod
Liked Beautiful, cosy and quirky pod equipped with everything you could possibly need and more!
The owner and staff are lovely and easy to chat to. Staff are also accepting, supportive and inclusive, they have no issues with us bringing our disabled daughter next time.
The farm is idyllic and it's so peaceful there. A little piece of tranquility only 30 mins from home.
I fell in love with one of Toni's horses "hero" and enjoyed my morning chat and "cuddle" with him!
We loved it that much we are returning in 2 weeks with our 8yr old daughter.
Disliked Having to go home and back to reality!

Camping pod
Liked had what was needed, in a small space, tv was good for evening as weather made it impossible to sit outside. Wifi would have made it better as phone signal was patchy.
Disliked be nice to have a fold up chair to go with table instead of having to sit on bed/bench, but may be difficult as pod is so small. Also the water heater was noisy, especially with the wind as bad as it was coming through the door/window too.
Water also smelt and tasted like metal so had to buy bottled water.

Very nice spring break, thank you
Camping pod
Liked The farm, the animals, the fact there were other families with kids so our son had friends to play with :)
Disliked The kettle in pod 2 may need replacing as it only boiled water if we pressed it continuously. Minor inconvenience for us, but others may complain more :)
