Well equipped cute and friendly stay.

Both lovely hosts. The pod was immaculate, well equipped and the extras (little breakfast hamper, beautiful oriental garden and easy parking) great. Quiet, ideal for a short stay and the hosts treated our daughter to a bottle of scholer and party poppers for her birthday which was cute. Perfect location too.Will visit again.

Hi it was lovely to meet you guys and your lovely family you are welcome back anytime. I'm sorry you found us a bit too small for your needs. We did ask how old your children were before you came and did inform you the bed settee is for two small children or an adult really. But you said it was fine you are used to staying in similar places. I even asked before you left if the children had enough space and you said yes. We did rush out and buy new duvets and pillows for you guys as you were our 1st with older children so we did try our hardest to make your stay as good as it could be. The pod is around the size of three 4 man tents so should be adequate. Anyways that aside we hope it hasn't put you off coming for another visit. We'd love to host you again.
