Miss Heather Stratton
Apr 2025

“Beautiful location, clean and very comfortable, plenty of kitchen utensils etc, lovely bathroom.”

Decking is perfect for looking at the stars as there is no light pollution, and good for breakfast outside while listening to bird song and the mountain stream in the distance. Perfect fenced off area for the dog, who thoroughly enjoyed the freedom and was fascinated by Mrs Lloyd the cat and Dotty the pony. Area for wild flowers

“Beautiful, secluded, perfect base for walks.”

Allthe facilities we required, owners were lovely and very helpful. Our little Border Terrier loved it, and it was great that yhe area around the pod was fenced off so that he couldn't do a great escape. We will he back x.

Mr Adam Harper Feb 2025

“Cosy private pod, well furnished to a very good standard striking a balance between comfort and function.”

Very well looked after with surrounding garden area well kept footpath and parking area. Hot tub was great, and a welcome way to relax after a walk in the mountains.

Miss Vanessa Pinder Jan 2025

“We stayed here in Jan 25 for 7 nights, absolutely amazing Claire was so helpful, we had a leak on the hot tub which was sorted straightaway, hot tub was lovely, was very cold so as expected it did take longer to get the hot tub hot, but so worth the wait!”

We took a little Dachshund, she loved all the new smells, the pod is fenced in which made to easier to relax with her, only thing I would be mindful of if you have a small dog is there is a gate at the top and bottom which she could get through but she only attempted once so wasn’t an issue for us, she loved it! We would definitely go back

- Miss Vanessa Pinder, Jan 2025

Lovely to meet you! Glad you enjoyed our pod x Property Owner
Mr Jack Burton Jan 2025

“Absolutely lovely property, great amenities and location.”

Very peaceful and relaxing. Mrs Lloyd was a great host. The bed was a bit broken however and did make the stay a bit uncomfortable. Overall we loved it though.

- Mr Jack Burton, Jan 2025

If anything breaks or you find it broken it's always best to ring us straight away so we can sort these things for you asap! Property Owner
Mrs Jo Maddock Jan 2025

“We had a fab time in the pod.”

It was a v cold weekend and the tub took 4 hrs and all the wood to heat up, it was worth it though.

Mr Tom Staley Oct 2024

“Amazing getaway!”

Beautiful scenery and great facilities. Only negative is that the lower feed for the hot tub was blocked so despite two attempts we couldn’t get the hot tub warm.

- Mr Tom Staley, Oct 2024

A quick phone call to us to tell us at the time would have solved your problem! Always around to come and sort anything needed x Property Owner
Mrs Zandra Barker Sep 2024

“I booked this for my husbands birthday as a gift and to say he completely loved it is an understatement, we were also able to take our dog with us and I can guarantee he enjoyed himself too and as for myself I don't usually do back to nature but I can honestly say I did not want to leave.”

The most beautiful place we have ever stayed so relaxing and quiet and the hot tub oh wow 5 star

- Mrs Zandra Barker, Sep 2024

So glad you enjoyed your stay! xx Property Owner

“The pod was as described.”

We was staying a week so storage was awkward but we survived. Hob was a challenge but instructions to hand and sorted. Hot tub was amazing. We have a springer who loved the freedom of the secure garden. Will defo be back. Thank you Clare.

Mrs Lynne Lewis-rose Jul 2024

“A peaceful secluded location, yet easy access to main road.”

We were able to easily continue our coastal walking of Wales between Harlech and Aberdovey and use this as a central base. We thoroughly enjoyed the outdoors hot tub and the whole ambience of this idyllic hideaway.

- Mrs Lynne Lewis-rose, Jul 2024
Ms Nicola Randall Jul 2024

“Exceptional location, being remote but with all of the creature comforts.”

Nestled in farmland with the surrounding mountains as your vista. Yet still not far from amenities. Couldn’t have been more perfect.

Felicity Mae Cooper Jun 2024

“Great property with privacy and beautiful views.”

Dogs and myself and partner had a wonderful relaxing time. Plenty of logs for fit pit and hot tub, close to local amenities and activities! Would 100% recommend if you are in need of a relaxing, serene, and peaceful place to unwind ❤️

Miss Andrea Cessford Jun 2024

“This lodge is absolutely amazing, we had such a relaxing time and fell in love with the area.”

The farm cat, Mrs Lloyd, became my best friend for the few days we were there and she was a real highlight. The owners were lovely and available when needed, but they let us be ourselves and made sure you have your privacy. The hot tub takes a while to heat up, so bear that in mind, but I loved using the firepit every night. Sitting out with the fire going at night surrounded by the sheep and horses was honestly so incredible. One thing to note, the roads on the way to the area could be super narrow and winding (just for anyone who isn't comfortable with country roads) as this is something we wish we knew so we could decide who was driving there. But honestly, the trip was incredible. We had such a relaxing time. Thank you so much to the owners for letting us stay
