Absolutely disgusting the bedding smelt like animals were kept inside and there was rubbish dumped behind the building the shower didn't work so refused to stay. Definitely would not recommend anyone to stay in any of these pods because of poor quality of maintenance. Don't even deserve 1 star. The Owner of these pods should be ashamed for advertising because the cleanliness is appalling and the up keep of the garden is disappointing plus the road that leads to the so called retreat was awful for my car. Totally disappointed with false advertisement.

Absolutely disgusting!!!The bed smelled like animals were kept in it and the linen and blanket was so dirty! There were also big spiders, moths and a million of flies in the house and in the garden! Garbage was dumped behind the building and in front of other lodges. The two plastic chairs in front of the house were damaged and dirty! The grass was very high. In the toilet and shower room were also many spiders, etc. The shower didn't work and the water was not treated - so you could not use the water! Due to the poor quality of maintenance, I would definitely not recommend anyone to stay in one of these pods and lodges. Doesn't even deserve 1 star. The owner of these cabins should be ashamed of the advertising because the cleanliness is terrible and the maintenance of the garden is disappointing, plus the road leading to the so called retreat was terrible for any car. Completely disappointed with false advertising. We didn't want to stay.We were two hikers going the prembrokeshire coast walk - you couldn´t even book one night - so we had to book two nights, altough we didn´t need the second night - and payed 150 pounds for this disgusting accomodation! Finally we didn´t even spend one night there!!! We booked a taxi, which brought us to a hotel in pembrokeshire!

I stayed in the Big Pod. It's perfect for a family that wants to go camping but doesn't want the challenges of putting up/down a tent.

Had a lush weekend here with my husband and 3 dags. Clean tidy accommodation and the owner can not do enough to help. Can't wait to return.

Lovely place to stay. There are still various bits that they are working on but this is clear in the adverts etc. And the prices charged reflect this so a definite winner from us and well recommended

I arrived at the property and was told aggressively by David Francis to leave as it wasn’t as advertised and due to covid restrictions I was not allowed to stay there. I paid £342, the owner is refusing to refund. Please avoid this business
