Metal Bridge Pods

Понравилось We recently stayed in the Metal Bridge glamping pods and had such a lovely experience. The pods were warm, cosy, and very well presented, with everything clean and thoughtfully set up on arrival. They even have solar power, which was great for charging phones and watching a bit of TV in the evening.
We didn’t need to use the diesel heater at all, as the pod stayed perfectly warm—even overnight. It rained on our second day, but we stayed dry, snug, and comfortable the whole time, which really added to the relaxing feel of the stay.
The toilet block is quite basic, but it’s clean and has everything you need for a short stopover. The pub on site was a real highlight—fantastic food at very good value for money.
We’d seen a few comments about motorway noise before arriving, but honestly, we hardly noticed anything. Aside from the occasional train passing, which didn’t disturb us at all, it was peaceful enough that we slept right through until 9am. There can be a slight smell of asphalt at times due to a nearby plant, but it comes and goes with the wind and is completely out of the owners’ control—it certainly didn’t spoil our trip.
The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, going out of their way to make sure our stay was as comfortable as possible. Another big bonus for us is that it’s dog-friendly. We have two small dogs, and it’s often difficult to find places that welcome pets and also offer somewhere to eat and drink with them—this place ticks all the boxes.
Overall, it’s a little gem and well worth a visit. We’d highly recommend it and would happily stay again!

Не понравилось Toilet block just needs a lick of paint but this didn’t spoil our trip in the slightest.

Понравилось They looked lovely on the advert

Не понравилось I never leave negative reviews but I don't want anyone to be in the same position I was. Couldn't find showers, toilets were dirty on arrival and no toilet roll. The noise from the motorway was horrendous, all night lorries beeping and there is possibly a construction site nearby as the sound of heavy machinery did not stop until 10pm. The windows may as well have been cling film. I was desperate to love these as a stopover on the journey up to Scotland but I was almost too tired to complete the journey the next day and my little girl only got max 4hrs sleep

От менеджера: Hello, thank you for your feedback.

The location of the showers were on the check in information that was sent to you before your arrival. There is also 2 phone numbers that you could call if you were unhappy about anything.

We apologise for the noise on the M6, unfortunately they were doing some resurfacing work and this was completely out of our control. We were never told that the work would be taking place.

Had you let us know about the noise we could’ve provided you with accommodation in the pub instead.

Apologies again however we do feel like putting the lowest score on all categories is a little unfair considering the main problem was not our fault and we were never made aware, therefore we never had the opportunity rectify it.

Понравилось Very quiet,, lovely place for a short break

Понравилось Too much bad smell, and I couldn’t sleep at all. The diesel heaters were making too much noise, which gave me a headache. Poor maintenance, nobody was there to help, and I couldn’t even find the showers properly. The toilets were dirty and not clean at all. Totally disappointed with this place. I would not recommend it to anyone.

От менеджера: Hello. Sorry for your experience.

Everything in the pod is advertised. “Nobody was there to help”. You got a check in message. Which you read. Stating 2 phone numbers you could call. The location of the showers are also on the check in text.

Sorry you were disappointed but there was so much information sent to you. You could’ve told us and it could have been fixed.
