My family and I had a wonderful holiday! Thank you very much.
Aries Glamping Pod camping pod (no pets)
Liked The road design of the campground is very good. The one-way road makes it convenient for drivers and increases the safety of pedestrians.
Public facilities such as toilets and playgrounds are very clean.
The decoration of Halloween is very attractive.
The camping is located close to the supermarkets and hiking trails, which increase the attraction.
There are sheep and horse near the camping. They are very friendly.
Your staff are very nice.
Disliked Two pods were stayed in on 1/11/2024. I saw that they were young people who probably did not have to take care of children. They made a lot of noise inside and outside their pods at all night.
We passed one of their pods to go to the toilet and smelt them smoking marijuana.
Hope the bathroom can provide a change of hot and cold water.
Nice pod with everything you needed close by. Very quiet and warm.
Harripod Classic camping pod (pet friendly)

Gemini camping pod (no pets)
Liked We loved the hive. We stayed in October so the suneas shining but cold in the evening. The heating was great in the hive and the kitchen /bathroom areas had everything you needed. Clean and tidy on arrival. Our grandson loved the freedom to ride his bike all day and play on park. We had a great time.
Disliked Nothing

Gemini camping pod (no pets)
Liked Check in was easy, accommodation very comfortable and warm. Facilities were good. Nice park for the kids and open grounds for a walk.
Disliked The only slight issue I had was that the accommodation we booked wasn't the one we stayed in. Not really a whinge because they gave us 2 lodges instead of 1 big Glamping pod because there wasn't one available. Which was fine, the lady just seemed surprised that I hadn't been informed of the change.
The peacefulness, privacy, amenities and good food at a nearby pub and…
