Hawthorn camping pod
Liked Very peaceful site. We stayed in a pod which was a good distance from the other glamping pitches and had a nice grassy surround which the dog loved. Pod was comfy with a small wood burner for colder evenings. The TV was an unexpected perk in an off grid pod.
Disliked Small issue, but the solar lighting in the pod was rather dim. Bring a head torch if you want to read. 10pm is awful early to put out your fire pit, especially when it hasn’t been dark for long. 11pm would be more reasonable, with a caveat of quiet after 10.

From the manager: Thank you for your lovely review, unfortunately the 10pm time limit on Fire pits is a stipulation of our insurance. We are looking at ways to increase the brightness of the 12v lighting in the pods :-)

Shepherd's hut
Liked The peacefulness of the site and the fire pit. It was good to have a fenced area for the dog, although she could get out under the hut if she wanted.
Disliked The shepherd’s hut was smaller than similar places we’ve stayed and there was only space for the double bed and nowhere to sit. Fortunately it was dry in the evenings we stayed and we could eat outside. It rained overnight, but if it had rained earlier in the evening we’d have had to find a pub or eat standing up in the campers kitchen then go to bed! If I stayed again I’d probably choose the larger pod.

From the manager: Thank you for your review . The shepherds hut is small but from the photos it shows it’s not large and the description you can see not big . The price reflects the hut as basic . 😊
