"Absolutely stunning location, peaceful & with beautiful views."
The owner was very friendly & helpful when we first arrived & when I lost the keys - sorry! The pod was beautifully clean & well equipped. Also, lovely & warm with the heating on. However, the site was very muddy - not the owners fault that there had been so much rain - but more could be put in place to make the site more accessible. The woodfired hot tub became a chore rather than a pleasure & the supply of kindling, firelighters & matches had run out by Tuesday - we were there Friday to Friday. I would also recommend that future guests take plenty of towels, including hand towels, as none are provided.

"The place is truly a great escape from a busy life, and Nigel has been very accomodating, he always checks that we are okay and has been enjoying and was very kind enough to provide us with cooking oil as we run out of stock."
Location: Be mindful, the postcode on the advert will point you to a different direction, however, just follow the writen instruction and you'll find your way. It's the Pennlake Vale Glamping.
Overall, it was a perfect spot to relax and reconnect with nature. We will definitely come back.

"We had a lovely stay Nigel was very attentive showed us how everything worked checked on us a couple of times to make sure everything was ok Hot Tub is a lovely feature and the dual head shower is very nice."
The lovely extras of tea coffee and sugar were an extra were weren't expecting so a lovely bonus. The lounge sofa was well sat on so cushions are a little flat but the pull out was comfy. Don't forget your beach towels and extras if you a big group like us who seem to use hundreds, we took a fan with us as we do get warm and it was definitely needed. Lovely grounds and a lovely location to explore or just chill

"Nice place but no value for money"
Dear guest,
Thank you very much for your response I am sorry that you felt that your stay did not represent good value for money. Might I just say that having accepted a second pet ,which is normally against our policy, as in the past we have found that two dogs in our glamping pods is too much as proved to be the case in this instance as most of the afternoon following your departure was spent collecting dog poo from around the site and the pod itself was left in a very untidy condition.

"We've just had a lovely stay in Ailsa Craig, 2 adults and 2 teenagers."
The cabin itself is in a great location, waking up over looking the ponds and hills was glorious. The owner allowed us to walk round some of their grounds so my boys had lots of space to burn of energy. You have everything you need within the cabin, plenty of plates, glasses etc. Didn't use the oven or bbq as we eat out each night or got takeaway. Likes the "techie" features of the bluetooth speaker and lights in the ceiling. The double bed sadly was awful, you could feel the springs through the mattress and we ended up having to by a mattress topper as we were so uncomfortable. Hot tub was lovely, loved that it was woodburing! It did begin to smell after 2 days of use so we didn't use it on our last day at the cabin. Overall we had a really nice day and would return.
Dear Emma,
Thank you very much for your feedback it is much appreciated. New matresses have been delivered and will be replaced tomorrow. I do hope that we might see you again in the future.
Best wishes,

"My family & I had a wonderful weekend here."
The pod was lovely, clean & comfortable. The views were amazing & facilities were great.
The host was very friendly & checked to make sure everything was ok for us.
The only suggestion I would make is to maybe consider supplying a fan in the pods during the hot weather. Luckily I remembered to bring my own but if I hadn't, it would have been very hot & stuffy at night. That being said, I didn't ask for one either so maybe you already do supply them but there wasn't any in ours.
We can't wait to come back again soon. Thank you!

"Had a really lovely stay, nice and relaxing!"
Would recommend taking a mattress topper as they are super soft and springy so not to everyones taste! Also would put some bbq utensils in as the ones provided in the kitchen are silicone so are not suitable for the bbq! Would also like to see a recycling point as no obvious recycling on site at all.. Other than that it was lovely and the owner Nigel was really nice and always happy to help! We were super impressed by the hot tub as well, we thought as it was wood fired it would take ages to heat up enough but it only took about 15 mins before you could get in and stayed warm for hours after we let the fire go out!

"Had a great break here view's and accommodation are amazing pods well equipped."
Only issue was it was quite damp when we stayed and u could really do with paved pathway between the pod to access the hot tub as your basically walking a mud path other than that I highly recommend this property

"We really enjoyed our 2 night stay in the pod, even managed to eat a meal outside under the stars thanks to the patio heater."
Loved the speakers and LED lights in the ceiling!!
Our only suggestions would be for some wine glasses and some form of dish that could be used in the microwave.

"Fabulous stay!"
The cabin is secure, warm and luxurious on the inside with a working kitchen / dining room. The views are absolutely beautiful, lots of fields to walk through and animals to look at. The cabin is built beautifully and the decor is lovely. The microwave oven was a nice added bonus as we didn’t feel like eating out all the time so we were able to cook some good meals. Short distance to pubs, restaurants and Worcester centre.
The only cons I have is that the hot tub was slightly murky looking upon our arrival which was fine however, we were staying Friday - Monday and by the Sunday morning, the water in the tub smelt pongy and pond-like. Also, the double bed in the living room is very, very springy which pokes into your back throughout the night. We ended up sleeping on top of a duvet and using the spare duvet instead which worked fine. The curtains were also very thin which meant we were woken up by the sun every morning (not a bad thing entirely, beautiful sights) but I would recommend blinds instead of curtains or at least some thicker ones. Other than this, we could not fault our stay and would definitely come back again.
Dear Chloe
Sorry for the problems don’t quite know what was wrong with hot tub but will investigate thoroughly and we have ordered some new mattresses for the beds
Kind regards,

"The pod was great."
Very warm and easy. We have left 3 large tea mugs as your pretty ones were not big enough! Also for us the mattresses needed to be much harder - I had to sleep on floor one night. Then I found I could use the bed settee -firmer base.
The view over the ponds and hills was wonderful - peaceful and secluded.
We enjoyed our stay very much.
Dear Patricia,
Thank you very much for coming we have ordered two new mattresses and replaced the mugs.
Thank you for the feedback it is very much appreciated.

"It was lovely staying here as the facilities were good and the surroundings were amazing and peaceful."
Needed to call the owner as the postcode takes you a little bit forward, but with the help of host we managed to reach the exact location.The host was welcoming and available for any help. The mattress of double bed and bunk bed were not in good condition, I think they need to be changed. Overall we enjoyed our stay there.
Thank you for the feedback we have ordered some new mattresses for the pods and hope sincerely that this rectifies the problem
