The Pod was very well maintained, clean and fresh. There was some lovely complimentary food and drink. The hot tub was secluded and romantic. We were left to out own devises during our stay. However the owners were immediately on hand if we needed anything. My wife is plus size and everything was very size inclusive. Overall we can not fault anything and will definitely be going back.

The occasion was our wedding anniversary and we were not disappointed! Pauline and Paul made it very special for us. Everything we needed was provided in the Pod and the hot tub was just amazing being tagged behind the Pod. The location is very peaceful which felt very inviting. We definitely can recommend this accommodation and would love to stay there again. Thank you Pauline and Paul!
