Camping pod (deluxe, bunk beds)
Liked: Only 5 pods so feels exclusive and quiet. Good location. We drove to Lyme Regis and Sidmouth folk festival. Axminster for Tesco superstore. Clean showers and washing up area. We used the en-suite toilet in Willlow Pod. Pods nice and clean.
Disliked: Double bed in WIllow Pod is super uncomfortable. You can feel the coil springs sticking into you. I recommend management lie on the bed and see just how uncomfortable it is. I would only sleep here again if they replaced the bed or put on a thick mattress topper. Camp bunk bed was super creaky! We adults ended up sleeping in the bunk bed (as the double was so uncomfortable) and the kids on the double. Thankfully we brought our own self inflating mattresses to go on the creaky camp bed to make it more comfortable, otherwise it would be just canvas you're sleeping on.

Camping pod (classic)
Liked: I enjoyed the pod really much, the bed was comfy there were a camping table provided outside of the pod where we can sit on and eat. The experience was awesome and I hope to come back next year! I love to recommend the Tunnel Pod to all my friends and relatives.
Disliked: There is nothing I disliked except for lack of water, but removing that everything is great.

Camping pod (classic)
Liked: Clean, functional pod with outdoor seating area and comfortable beds. The site was intimate and private. Great easy access to Lyme Regis and Charmouth.
Disliked: The noise from the road was constant. Ear plugs helped at night. The camp bed for the smaller child was very basic, where the other beds had proper mattresses.

Camping pod (classic)
Liked: Neat and clean, nice toilets, showers and washing up. Good base for visiting the fossil beaches.
Disliked: Be aware this is right next to the A35, so a LOT of traffic noise. Only a small place attached to an outdoor activity centre, so no campsite atmosphere, if that's what you're looking for!

Liked: Clean, good showers, loos an washing up areas. Nice to have a proper bed when camping. Very small camp I think only 5 pods on site which is nice.
Disliked: It did smell of mildew/damp in the pod and we could hear the main road mostly just because we needed the window cracked open due to the damp smell.
