BEWARE- must supply own bed linens and towels
Well- if I could give this experience 0 stars I would. Less than an hour after I booked this non- refundable stay- the place emailed me and said the customer had to supply all the bedding and towels. I don’t have a problem with this concept. I have a HUGE problem with neither Hotel.com nor BCC letting me know BEFORE booking that I needed to supply the bedding and towels. We were traveling for over 2 weeks and did not have the space to carry our own bedding. If I had known, I would never have booked this location. Within 1 minute of receiving this email that I had to supply this stuff on my own, I tried to contact both Hotels.com and BCC to ask to get a refund. Hotel.com said it is up to the property. The property NEVER RESPONDED to my requests. I had to eat the costs of the booking and book another place. Again, the place looked super cute on Hotels.com, but be aware- they only tell you after they you have to supply your own bedding.

Great value
One of the messages from the property didn't come through, the one that gave decent directions. Several places en route looked like they were the property. It took a while, but we eventually found it. Apparently there's a kitchen on site, but we only found one in the hostel across the street? Had a hard time finding the switch to turn on the hot water, I tried messaging the property, but it was late and I never got a response. The switch was pretty big by the showers, I probably missed it since I was tired. The cabin was a little dingy, maybe a bit of mold on the ceiling. But for the price (1/3 the price of a real hotel within 100 miles)it was still a great value for warm showers and taking a break from tent camping.

Unless you've a car or get a bus (which i suspect are few and far between) you'd struggle to get there unless you were walking. The pod itself was okay but could do with a lick of pain and tidying up a bit, as could the toilet block. There was no signage and further out than we thought. We'd a lovely view of the river and the kids liked it, however as a parent staying with 2 kids it was unnerving that there was no staff presence or security measures, It was fine for something different for the kids and a one night stay, maybe more suited for backpackers or someone needing somewhere small for a stop over for a night

Pod 1 I stayed in was terrible, unliveable, disgusting, the property was not well maintained, the lock on the door was definitely not safe as it has previously been knocked off and a bolt in place of it. The noises of the rats in the pods was terrifying I ended up not being able to stay there for the duration of my time. The owner of the place did not give a toss and was so rude on the phone when we phoned to complain! Thankfully the lady that worked there was nice and was able to move me into the hostel over the road which was 100x times. The pod 1 had a smoke alarm that was hidden underneath bedding that had been left from previous customers and it had been all peed on by rats. This is no way to run a business. The whole place was just unkept and would recommend anyone to NOT stay there. It’s not worth the money find something nicer, safer, and cleaner.

Booked for a family of 4. Arrived at a seemingly desolate glamping site including a smashed up, abandoned car! We were alone in a place that seemed to have fallen on hard times. For safety, we left and put this one down to experience.

Avoid unless desperate
Booked for my wife and 2 dogs. No one there to check in with. Had to ask neighbour. After 5-10 minutes woman came out chewing food so close to my ear my wife stepped away. She did apologise for eating. I booked a wigwam/chalet - my wife was put into a hostel room. Dirty floors, shower scum so thick she couldn’t close the door. Toilet brush welded to the floor, with rust. Broken chair on old walkway, old cigarette tabs in a wet pot outsude the door.

The Pods were in a dilapidated condition. I was in Pod 1 but it had no lock and door was broken. I was offered Pod 2 which was slightly better but dirty. There were loose wires hanging from the light fittings. The door was a split door, top & bottom, but the latch holding them together was broken and only held together by a 2 inch wood screw, most of which was sticking out. I did catch my arm on it once or twice...The toilet block was relatively clean but the there are various loose fittings...There is a kitchen across the main road which did look clean and functional but I never used it. The best thing was definitely the small river by the pod and the views beyond.

This was the worse place we could have picked to stay! The cabin was full of mold, and the bed broke when one of my adult kids went to lay down. We tried to talk to the maintenance man when he was there, and he just laughed in our faces. We've emailed, and the only response was to say, "we hope you had a good time". We stayed 1 of the 2 nights we paid for, and that was on the floor. Nothing about any refund or anything. STAY AWAY!

Great one night stay. A little pricey for what it is, but it was a neat little place. Pretty standard accommodations a little farther out than I expected, but would recommend.

We ended up not staying here and going to a nearby hostel. No staff to be found anywhere. We booked hagrids hut, which looked nice and cute when first opening the door however when we actually looked around the hut was filled with insects, dead and alive. Some insects are to be expected of course you’re surrounded by trees, but we did not expect to find dead insects stuck to the walls, ceiling, under the bed, lamp shade and the mirror was covered in cobwebs. There was nothing to stop bugs coming in either as there were big gaps in the door frame. This lead us the question the last time the hut was actually cleaned and whether the bed sheets were even fresh. Facilities were the same, insects everywhere, however the facilities themselves were actually okay and functional. Another reason we didn’t stay was our window didn’t have curtains or blinds which we were very uncomfortable with as a foot path went right around the hut. We just knew we’d have spent the whole night swatting away bugs and being paranoid about someone looking into the window.

Last minute booking as needed somewhere in a hurry. I knew it was a glamping site but wasn’t prepared for no bedding provided. Thankfully I had a very light sleeping bag with me, absolutely freezing the night I stayed. You really need to be prepared for this site.
