No 5 camping pod (two person)
Liked: Cabin was clean, BBQ from night before wasn't emptied or cleaned. Location was really quiet, exactly what we wanted. Good supply of cups, tea and coffee in the cabin. Toilets clean and stocked up.
Disliked: Bit confusing where to go, as site is a residential and pods aren't signposted. Family of 4 hogging both bathrooms on Saturday and Sunday and using firepit area until late with music on phone. So mainly others spoiling the site for you. Beds in the cabin for the price felt a bit off.

The Shire House microlodge
Liked: Lovely surroundings to walk . Nice and clean accommodation. Friendly staff
Disliked: Did not ike the rubber topped mattress . Very close to the road which is busy . Very awkward especially first thing when we woke up if you need the toilet and the two rooms are being used for showering . There needs to be separate toilets. 2 wet rooms for the 9 that can stay there is not enough . Darker blinds would also be nice as the ones there are sea through when the sun comes up .

No 2 camping pod (four person)
Liked: The staff, well the one staff member what we me on Friday was outstanding, cleanish toilets and shower blocks but could do with a the de-cobweb
Disliked: Pods 2 sleep 4 people, very very basic a kettle provided but yet no cups are also no water points what state it can be used apart from the bathroom sink, in the photos the pods look huge but realistically they are very very small, the fridge is placed on the bottom bunk, pods get very stuffy at night time, they do have a port hole window but if that person on the top bunk open the window it leaves very little room to sleep in the bed. tested our heater our in the early evening as it wasa bit cooler to find the stands are broken If you don’t like spiders then certainly don’t go, we had many in our pod but as of or the bathroom well just close your eyes and hope for the best
