Mr Hayes
Absolutely amazing pod the dragons eye is! We had a lovely stay getting away from a busy life to pure bliss & relaxation here. At peace with the beautiful views & outdoor lifestyle relax & unwind in the hot tub & get all cosy with the fire. Feed the donkeys & have a paddle around the lake just what we need some valued us time. 100% recommend this place can’t wait to come back next year & hopefully see some stars that’s the only thing we didn’t see as it was to foggy both the evenings but apart from that we had a fabulous weekend away. Thank you very much x

Had the best get an away here and chose to stay in the glass cabin right near the wildlife (the donkeys were especially friendly). Waking up to the most beautiful scenic views is something me and my partner mostly enjoyed. Thank you so much for a wonderful stay and your personal gestures.

The cottage was really cozy and welcoming. It was an added plus to see the donkeys and sheep. The baby donkey in particular made my holiday. The hot tube was in the perfect location, overlooking the mountains, it was a stunning view. There was plenty of activities therefore you didn't need to leave the site. I would highly recommend coming here!
