I had such a nice time here. I've never been glamping before and wasn't sure what to expect but it was fantastic. I'd communicated with the owner during the week before and she got back to promptly to explain a few things I'd missed in the booking email. The cabin itself was really quite spacious, I've been led to believe they're slightly bigger and more equipped than other glamping pods out there. It had heating too which was much needed on the mornings. The facilities were all brilliant, nice warm showers, big sinks to wash up the dishes, picnic table to eat on. There's even a place to sit in besides the pods with comfy chairs and enough tour guides to give you endless possibilities. Honestly couldn't recommend this place enough and we'll definitely be booking again in the future.

The pods were very clean and included very good amenities ie fridge, kettle and toaster. There were even treats for our lil pooch. We used the air beds we had taken to make sleeping more comfortable. The shower and toilet block were kept very clean. The owners were very helpful and no problem was too much trouble. The people in the other pods were very friendly too. I would definitely recommend this place for anyone wanting to try glamping. Sitting out under the stars with fairy lights around the pod gave it a magical touch. Really enjoyed are stay and everyone we met in Shropshire and Wales were very friendly.

Lovely glamping holiday. The hut was simple but clean and cosy. Tea, coffee, sugar and milk left for us on arrival. The fire pit and marshmallows we ordered were all ready as well. They even left dog treats for our dog. The site is unbelievably clean and super quiet. Great place to get away for a few nights

As a large extended family we had three pods and it worked out well. Boys all had their own toilet. Girls their own. Showers were lovely and the social distancing worked really well. While still having a very relaxing couple of days. Hot tub is a must 😉
