Chipmunk Pod Reviews

Ben
We had such a lovely weekend here! The location is perfectand the owners are genuinely friendly and helpful. Even with other guests around, it felt private. The walks were gorgeous, beds super comfyand all the modern amenities in the pods made it perfect for us, the wife’s birthday and the dog included!
Jamie
We had a lovely stay! The pod felt really cosy but still had enough space for our family of four. The kitchen was small but had everything we needed - no fuss there. The bathroom was surprisingly spacious and felt quite luxurious. The hot tub was definitely a highlight; we loved relaxing in it while taking in the views. It’s partially covered, so we could use it rain or shine. The site was super peacefuland Helen, the host, was brilliant - she even found our son's lost wallet and returned it quickly. Great experience overall!
Emma
We had such a great time during our short stay! The pod was spotless and well-equipped, with a stunning location right on our doorstep. The hosts were super friendly and gave us some lovely suggestions for walks and places to visit. Can't wait to come back!
