    I honestly couldn't rave highly enough about this place. Went with 2 other couples for a get away / anniversary / birthday combined, that was easy to get to from London, but in nature. And this was just absolutely perfect!! The host: Liz was absolutely wonderful - her communication was always prompt and filled with helpful answers. She went out her way to accommodate all our requests - arrival times, leaving times, etc. She was always friendly and available for everything! It made organising the trip a treat opposed to a chore to deal with Liz :) The accommodation: Was honestly perfect! We've done several glamping trips now, so know what we hope for, and this, had it all! The functional details especially were not missed. The pods were super spacious - felt like being in an apartment. There was everything we needed; a comfy bed, bed night lights, great shower, heated towel rack (perfect for when you get out the hot tub), towelling robes, all cooking utensils, black out blinds, porch lights, deck chairs, extendable dining table, milk in the fridge, sensory lights outside the pods to see our way at night, fire pits, wood available (via an honesty box, nice touch), an allotment to pick fresh veg from, walking guide booklet, how the pod was created booklet, parking space (but round the back so you get to overlook a field from your pod, not the parked car), and ample space to hang out in front of your pod. I can't say anything that we would have wanted better (except more sunshine :)) - it was all thought of! And an even bigger bonus to know John, Liz's partner, built the pods - they were truly made with love and in immaculate condition. Definitely hope to return!
