Couldn’t believe our luck finding this place. The views from pods has to be seen to be believed. Stacey was born to host, so thoughtful and unbelievably kind. Recommend is an understatement

Beautiful stay. Stacey was very kind and attentive, the pods were incredibly clean with the most wonderful view. I couldn’t recommend this place enough.

This is the BEST POD to stay at in Scotland — at least from our experience! Stacey greeted us warmly the moment we arrived and gave us a great tour of the place. She clearly puts a lot of thought and care into making her guests feel comfortable, and it really shows. The POD was spotless, cozy, and full of thoughtful touches that made our stay extra special. One of the highlights was the small BBQ setup right outside the POD — such a nice touch! We enjoyed grilling our meal while taking in the fresh air and beautiful views. The POD faces a stunning, open beach just steps away, perfect for a peaceful walk. We absolutely loved our stay here and would definitely come back — next time for even longer!

Just a delight and what a view, even on a cloudy day. Perfect quiet escape on the NC 500. Highly recommend
