Comfort is a recurring theme, with guests finding the pod welcoming and cozy. The only minor drawback mentioned is a single comment about a worn-out mattress, but this does not detract significantly from the overall comfort experienced by guests.
Facilities are well-regarded, with the hot tub being meticulously maintained and the pod well-equipped. There are mentions of modern touches and adequate cooking facilities, although one comment about water pressure suggests a small area for improvement.
While the reviews reflect the hosts' thoughtfulness in providing a welcoming and accommodating experience, there are no specific mentions of gifts, and therefore it is not possible to score this category.

The Beech pod was spotlessly clean in a beautiful location. The hot tub was checked every day by the owners who were also on hand for information on walks and ideas to do things locally. My grand daughter picked the pod, and although I'm a cottage fan, she loved it and didn't want to leave. We had some friends visit, and they're looking to book one of the pods as they were impressed by them. We all said the experience would be amazing with a snowy backdrop.

The pod and facilities were amazing very cozy And everything you need The views were great The only thing i would say is the hot tub needed to be a little more private as we could see our neighbours But we would stay here again
