Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers unanimously mention the cleanliness of the pods, describing them as 'very clean', 'immaculate', and 'spotless'. This consistent feedback indicates a high standard of cleanliness maintained by the hosts.
The location is highly praised for its beautiful views, peaceful setting, and proximity to Ulverston town. Guests appreciate the direct access to the countryside and the convenience for exploring the Lake District.
Guests describe their stays as 'cosy', 'warm', and 'comfortable', with the pods providing a 'home from home' experience. The presence of a hot tub adds to the comfort level, although there is a mention of an issue with shower temperature control.
The facilities are generally well-received, with the pods being equipped with necessary amenities and the hot tub being a highlight. However, there are comments about low shower pressure and issues with flies, which slightly affect the score.
While the reviews reflect positively on the hosts' friendliness and helpfulness, there are no specific mentions of gifts or special thoughtful touches that would warrant a score in this category. Therefore, the score is set to null.

Ulverston is a typical, cobblestone market town offering a wonderful assortment of independently owned stores, cafés, and pubs that serve real ales and have open fireplaces. From upscale dining to traditional pub fare, there is a wide variety of restaurants to satisfy every taste. Ulverston is recognised for being a festival town, hosting activities like flag-waving and walking, as well as art and music festivals throughout the summer and the renowned Dickensian Christmas celebration in late November. It offers a look into the amusing, communally spirited little town as the birthplace of Stan Laurel and the holder of the world record for the largest foam pie fight. The town and surrounding area offer wonderful walking opportunities, and there are views of Morecambe Bay and the southern Lake District from the countryside.

Carol came over to see us to introduce herself, Meg and the adorable Polly. Plenty advice on walks and things to see. The pod itself was clean, well stocked with all you need. The hot tub was great at the end of the day or if you felt like just chilling. Meg came to see us every day, mostly with her ball!! To top it off Charlie and Mindy, the farm donkeys visited for their carrots, but be aware, they will sulk if you forget

The views are amazing from the cosy pod and the hot tub. Super clean and has everything you want for a short stay. You can park right next to the pod. Would highly recommend. Thank you for hosting.
