Pod is lovely, everything you need. Gorgeous views, great hot tub and very relaxing. Marked location down only because no pub/ restaurant within walking distance, had to drive so could not have a drink with meal.

What an absolute delight it was to stay in such a welcoming pod. The owners attention to detail was greatly appreciated. The views from the property is enough to go back on its own but, to have such a warm cosy pod with everything you need makes that stay even more special. Will definitely be back soon xx

Absolutely beautiful lodge. Amazing stay. This was our first couple of nights away child free in over 6 years. It was stunning from start to finish. The little touches like the scones and the brownie was so lovely. It made it feel more personal. The whole stay was amazing thank you :-)
