We had a fantastic time at the West Fife Pods. All communication with Eric & Nicky was super clear, helpful & welcoming. The pod itself was spotless and had everything we needed for our stay, as a family of four, with young kids. The location is great, peaceful and quiet yet a very short drive to Culross and Limekilns - which are both lovely. We will definitely stay again.

The pod was beautiful and comfortable and the added little extras and home comforts really make it stand apart from other glamping pods. Lovely outdoor space which looked magical in the evening when the solar lights came on and we lit the chimnea. We were greeted by Eric, who was really friendly and welcoming. The pod had a file full of info about how to use the appliances and about services in the local area. The view was beautiful. We have decided this will be our regular stop off on our way to and from seeing family in the Highlands.

Would 100% recommend! Wonderful little cosy pod and peaceful scenery. Eric was very attentive and friendly, we booked last minute and were very lucky to grab a pod as he was so helpful. The location was divine, we didn’t want to leave! Loved the field next to us as we ran around with our dog off lead and watched the sunset with our fire pit which was set up for us and easy to use. If we’re ever up in Scotland again I will definitely be back and for longer! Thanks again guys!

Wow! Highly recommend these beautiful pods. Views are absolutely stunning, the big enclosed field for dogs was a huge hit for our little furry friend, and all the thoughtful little added extras makes your stay so homely and special. Pods are spotless inside and outside and has everything you need! Owners are very friendly too! We can’t wait to come back!!

Excellent stay at Westfife pods. Pods are great & the small touches added by owners make them even better. We stayed with our 2 dogs Brody & Norman & the dog friendly field was huge & great to let them run wild in.If staying in the area agin we would not think twice about returning. Big thanks to Eric & Niki.

Perfectly peaceful one night stop over (each way!) on our way to the Hebrides. The pod was gorgeous inside and out; new, clean, bright with many thoughtful touches.Our dog loved exploring the field and so lovely to relax on an evening with the fire and sundowner.Ideally situated for a visit to Culross Palace and the historic Red Lion Inn.Thank you Eric, for your kind hospitality!

A wonderful oasis of calm where we enjoyed a great evening and stopover on our way North. We were blessed with great weather which meant we could fully enjoy the outside space and chimnea. Nicky and Eric are fabulous hosts, we felt very welcome and they even looked after our frozen dog food for us. We visited Culross, the Kelpies and the Falkirk Wheel. All highly recommended and West Fife Pods is a great base from which to explore. Thanks for having us, I hope we can return.

Best night with my wife. Quiet, lovely, and cosy. Had a BBQ listening to the birds, there is also a fish pond there, you can watch the fish or feed them with their right food. The hosts were also very responsive, friendly, and helpful.
