Liked: The pod was great, in a beautiful setting. The rain didn’t dampen our night away. We had the fire pit going regardless. The facilities were immaculately clean. The pod had been decorated with birthday banners as it was my husbands birthday surprise - a lovely touch by the owners.

Disliked: We didn’t dislike anything, the only thing we struggled with was the pod was so hot overnight with 4 people and a dog. You may need to open a window if it’s a hot night.

Liked: Lovely clean camping pod and the castle farm venue itself was very well looked after. The shower and toilet blocks were also clean and spacious. The pod had a very large double bed and microwave, fridge, kettle, and tea bags, milk, coffee etc. Our little boy enjoyed looking at the cows and running around on the grass.

Liked: Stayed in the Oak pod. Lovely and clean, with a heater, microwave, toaster, kettle, tea/coffee and fridge - nice touch having a pint of milk in the fridge for us. Folder also available giving information, contact numbers and what's around the area which was very helpful. Having a picnic bench to use outside the Pod was nice too. Sinks for washing up dishes were also well kept, had plenty rubbish bins and also had a freezer and another fridge available for anyone to use - husband particularly enjoyed the availability of ice for his whisky! The showers and toilet area themselves were lovely and clean with large shower cubicles, adjustable temperature showers, and good water pressure. Could only have been improved by the addition of a bench (or similar), inside the shower cubicle, for putting clothes/toiletry bag on, or additional hooks for hanging stuff on. Otherwise could not fault them. We also very much enjoyed the living area available for anyone to use, which had 2 large couches and table, a selection of games for adults and kids alike, and loads of leaflets for anyone wishing info on whats available in the surrounding area. Only there for 1 night so didn't get to explore as much of the area as we would've liked, but what we saw was very nice. Can also recommend the Red Lion in Ellesmere for food ( very welcoming and dog/child friendly). Would happily recommend this glamping site and wouldn't hesitate to go back.

Disliked: Picnic bench on quite a slope so had to be careful that drinks didn't slide off, otherwise nothing to dislike!

From the manager: Hi Elizabeth, Thank you for the lovely comments, love the photo of your dog , enjoying a roll on the grass. Thank you for staying with us. Helen

Liked: Idyllic location but yet also accessible to places. Accommodation spotless with well manicured lawns and well maintained accommodation. Immersed in the beautiful Shropshire scenery. Must do’s Chirk Castle , Whittington Castle , British Ironworks Museum, Cosford Air Museum. We also managed Lake Vyrnwy and one of the seven wonders of Wales , Pistyll Rhaeadr. Castle Farm is perfect for whatever you decide , strongly recommend the Willow Pod to take advantage of the hot tub and relax. There is also a local supermarket that has a fresh bakery, highly recommend. Plentiful of things if you want to venture out , Castles, Waterfalls , Gardens making it a good choice for all ages. Helen communicated post booking with invaluable information, she gave us that reassurance.

Disliked: 5 ***** exceeded my expectations

Liked: The setting, the showers and toilets, the Pods, the fire pit. great value for money and good base for exploring local area. Feels very remote but you are not far from shop, pub etc

Disliked: The hardness of the bed..... Take a topper!

Liked: It was exactly what was needed for our first pod experience. We were self-sufficient with fridge, microwave, toaster and kettle. The bed was massive and so comfortable for a deep sleep in peaceful surroundings. The pod was beautiful uncluttered, with a few neat touches like the extendable mirror. Tea, coffee and fresh milk was supplied, and there was the nice touch of a bag of dog treats for Buddy. The facility block was pristine, with separate male and female toilets and showers. I forgot to snap the pod, but took some photos of our evening walk down the lane, where sheep graze among the graveyard to keep the grass trimmed. It was only an overnight stay, but it served perfectly as a much-needed respite, and I left feeling rejuvenated. Thank you to our host Helen who made sure we had everything we needed.
