Camping pod
Liked Leaving the site everyday to explore the area. Coming back was the disappointment.
Disliked Where to start?
Whilst travelling along the road to the farm, there is no signage on the main road and narrow entrance off a fast busy road and instantly met with drep pot holds. Travelling along the lane to the farm there is nothing but pot holes everywhere. I dread to think what it would be like in a normal car as we are lucky we have a four wheel drive.
Secondly the photos showing the pods are from 2018, showing well manicured lawns and gravel path from the car park to the pods. After paying for the pads before seeing them we then walked to out pod to find that there is not gravel paths left just churned up mud and overgrown grass and mole hills everywhere making unsure footing. My husband twisted his ankle trying to carry our bags top the pod which were wheeled but unable to wheel it due to the mud.
Pod1 is run down, smaller than stated so no room to store any bags and clothes. Shower totally non functioning and would not ignite the boiler for hot water. So had endure a cold shower. The shower head would not stay in place kept slipping down.
The Gas boiler was from 2018 there was no safety certificate anywhere to show it had been serviced and it has a pilot light so for safety sake we slept with the window open. My husband checked online regarding the boiler as we felt it unsafe and it was discontinued 2018/2019 because of the high nox levels, so the manufacturer discontinued it.
2 drinking glasses in pod, one which had a chip and crack for a pod that sleeps 4.
Went to fill the dogs bowl with water, noticed the colour and run some into a glass and it resembled orange squash. The water then went off for nearly 4 hours, when it came back on, it was still discoloured and spitting out rust from the taps. One the last day my husband went to take a wash and the smell from the water was overpowering. We had to use bottled water for everything including washing. I would not even fill my dogs water with what came out of the taps.
The external roof of the cabin was half shingles, the side facing where you arrive. The opposite side was felt so must have had a leak or damage in the past. The whole pod was run down. The only new part of was the decking. Never complained when we were there as we left early and came back late to minimise our time in the cabin. Pods were stated to be 17ft x 13ft actual size 13ft x 10ft.
There was also a farm shop on site which was not open the entire time we were there. Also on the write up it shows that there is a sauna on site have no idea where that was supposed to be.
We could have lived with pod being on the small side and other fairly worn but once the water trouble started and the non functioning shower this is what made it unbearable, as I booked the pod because it had a private shower!

Electric hardstanding and grass touring pitch
Liked Arrived at the site to be treated by the friendly owner who made us feel welcomed and offered valuable information on walks and the surrounding area. The pitch was level, serviced and extremely clean and well kept. Toilet and shower block close by, clean warm and modern with free showers. We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay and will definitely return. We were so happy with the site that we took it upon ourselves to clean the floor in the men and women’s toilet and shower blocks (this was not arranged between us) as there was a lot of muddy footprints due to the recent wet weather and we felt that it would be a nice gestures to the owners before we left to say thank you for a wonderful stay.
