Not suitable for two people who sleep in separate beds. Property is more suitable for couples of families with small children. Not suitable for long distance travelers because only bedding for double bed. My friend had to use an airplane blanket and were sweatshirt.

We arrived from Fort William late and rain soaked, our bikes covered in mud, and were warmly welcomed by the receptionist who assured us it wasn't too late to check in and explained everything about we needed to know about the monster pod and surroundings. The pod itself was spotless and roomy, with nice amenities and a heater (which we didn't know we'd need in mid August) that worked great. Would definitely visit again if/when I return to Scotland and the Highlands.

I have booked a POD for a family of 4 through Expedia, it turned out that they only provide bedding for 2 people, which did not make any sense if you book for 4, front desk mentioned that it mentioned somewhere on there site, but on Expedia does not mentioned anything. Of course very strict on check in time, they need to be flexible in case client came early, we came around noon time and they said the POD is not ready, we drove around to our POD while waiting to check in and no one was working on the POD as it was ready, but you cannot check in early :-(

Tiny but bright and cosy

Really well located. Sort of hard to find because the resort is not yet on the local maps but the village is small so the street name is good enough. It is the last camping resort on that street.

We stayed in one of their pods. The hosts are extremely helpful and arranged for a very late check-in. The views from our pod was really stunning!! It is very close to the town centre. The pods are comfortable for a couple or a small family. Note that you can purchase a sleep bag for the bunk bed if you want. They only provide a microwave and a few plastic plates, cups and cutlery.

Problème avec hotels.com

Nous avons eu la très mauvaise surprise de nous rendre compte que les couvertures et les draps n'étaient pas fournis pour les enfants et qu'il fallait les apporter ! Rien de noter sur HOTELS.COM sur ma réservation !!! Sachant qu'il faisait 10 degrés dehors, je ne sais pas comment nous aurions fait si le personnel de l'hôtel n'avait pas pu nous prêter 2 sacs de couchage pour les enfants.

Fantastic stay in a gorgeous park

The park itself has been done to a very high standard with oustanding views from the pods. The pods are actually more spacious than I thought they would be and very comfortable and the staff at the park are very friendly. We will definitely be back.

Great value and something a little different

The pods were spacious considering they are pods. They were warm, clean and the grounds were immaculate. I was pleasantly surprised it had all the stuff you would need like, toilet and shower. Microwave, kettle, sink to clean dishes, TV, cupboards and room For 4 people. The area was nice and the staff were really pleasant and welcoming.
