The pod was so clean and a lot bigger than we thought from the pictures and there is so much storage space! Literally, everything has been thought of, the kitchen is fully stocked with cooking equipment, utensils, and crockery. Despite being on a working farm, the pods are so quiet, we didn't hear any outside noise whatsoever and it's such a calming place. Hot tub is really good size (bonus of inbuilt speakers too!) The hot tub covered-over area is really great too with the Ninja BBQ, fire and TV (signal reception, streaming services and wifi were great), was lovely to sit down there on an evening, the skies were so clear we got to see the Northern lights (a strong flare occurred so not common) and meteor shower! The place is around 3/4 miles down a single track but there were never any other cars so despite feeling nervous it was never an issue. It is a great location for activities and is set in a lovely forest. I would highly recommend this place and visit again, fantastic value for money (our three-year-old loved the animals - the pod is sat in a sheep field - and exploring) The owner kindly greeted us when we arrived but left us to it afterward, the added touch of Welsh cakes and Prosecco was so nice, thank you. Definitely use the what three words to locate!

! If you are looking for a peaceful quirky break in the countryside this is the place to be and is by far the most stunning place we have ever stayed. for our first visit to wales itâs been truly wonderful and exceeded all our expectations. Living in a busy town with busy roads this has been so peaceful and a little surreal for us. The views are breathtaking, We enjoyed the hot tub at night then chilling by the log fire watching Halloween movies. stargazing at night was a beautiful sight also. The kids loved going to see the cows and sheep each day. We will be highly recommending your beautiful Pods and hope to be back soon thank you Jane and Huw love from The Days x

It's really well equipped and spotlessly clean. There are stunning views and with the outside covered space with hot tub, log burner, kitchen and electric BBQ grill and even a TV and sound system, you can enjoy outdoor living whatever the weather. There are 3 pods but each has its own little field so feels very private. The games room was an added bonus. There is plenty to do in the area and lovely forest walks from the doorstep. The owners are very helpful and friendly. We hope to return sometime!
