The pod was immaculate, and had everything we needed for our family of 4. The detail and thought put into it did not go unnoticed - the quality of the kitchen utensils, bedding, blankets etc. just made it all the more special. 2 relaxing days spent cooking, enjoying the outdoors and spending time together as a family without the need to spends lots of money. Really special place.

From the moment we arrived, we were blown away by the stunning views and the cozy, clean atmosphere of the home. The house had everything we neededâwell-equipped kitchen, comfortable furnishings, and all the little touches that made our stay feel special. Mornings were perfect, sitting outside with a coffee, taking in the breathtaking scenery. The kids couldnât get enough of the massive hot tub, which was such a hit! Evenings were equally wonderfulâafter a day of exploring, we relaxed next to the wood burner, watching a film and just enjoying the peaceful setting. The owners were fantasticâso friendly, welcoming, and helpful with anything we needed. Their attention to detail really made a difference and made the stay feel even more special. We left feeling relaxed, refreshed, and already planning our next visit. Highly recommend this place!

The pod was so clean and a lot bigger than we thought from the pictures and there is so much storage space! Literally, everything has been thought of, the kitchen is fully stocked with cooking equipment, utensils, and crockery. Despite being on a working farm, the pods are so quiet, we didn't hear any outside noise whatsoever and it's such a calming place. Hot tub is really good size (bonus of inbuilt speakers too!) The hot tub covered-over area is really great too with the Ninja BBQ, fire and TV (signal reception, streaming services and wifi were great), was lovely to sit down there on an evening, the skies were so clear we got to see the Northern lights (a strong flare occurred so not common) and meteor shower! The place is around 3/4 miles down a single track but there were never any other cars so despite feeling nervous it was never an issue. It is a great location for activities and is set in a lovely forest. I would highly recommend this place and visit again, fantastic value for money (our three-year-old loved the animals - the pod is sat in a sheep field - and exploring) The owner kindly greeted us when we arrived but left us to it afterward, the added touch of Welsh cakes and Prosecco was so nice, thank you. Definitely use the what three words to locate!
