Camping pod
Liked: Peaceful, clean and a perfect base for exploring. The host was friendly and gave me space during my stay. Much appreciated and I know I could have contacted her should I have had any queries or required anything. Although I did not use the fire pit, everything was ready if I'd have decided to. My greyhound girl loved it too. Safe, enclosed field and she was incredibly relaxed, as well as curious about the horses and sheep in the adjoining field. I was incredibly lucky to have witnessed the amazing Northern Lights during my stay too. Unforgettable experience. So beautiful x

Camping pod
Liked: Excellent, clean and warm pod. It was wet and chilly outside, but when we arrived, our hosts were friendly, helpful and very welcoming. Even gave me some charcoal for the bbq, so I didn't hand to go and buy some. I was worried the pod would be chilly, but they'd put the heater on and it was cosy and lovely. Very comfortable, would thoroughly recommend.

Camping pod
Liked: We had a great 2 nights here, lovely pods, and a great site. Size was great for the 3 of us, me and my 2 kids (10 and 11) Kids loved the pod aswell as all the animals around the place. We will definitely be back again, and we would highly recommend. Owner was friendly and very helpful, pod was well equipped, clean and welcoming. Our first night, we were hit by heavy rain and wind... but we were cosy and warm all night long. Following night was lovely weather so made use of the fire pit and a disposable bbq 😁

Liked: The pod had everything we needed. It was warm and toasty on arrival and our host was welcoming. There was a lot of space to run around outside & the beautiful horses and donkeys in the surrounding fields were a delightful bonus.

Liked: That all necessities were provided (bedding & cooking utensils). Very secluded spot, with only 4 Pods looking over the countryside. There was also a nice welcoming surprise of fire wood for the fire pit and a bag of marshmallows to toast over the fire.
