Guest Reviews

• Urmurmina (10/5): -
• Savannah Jean (10/5): Amazing! Cannot wait to come back. - Really cosy, nice and peaceful with beautiful views Pillows were a bit soft for my likely
• Max (10/5): - Great setting and nice facilities
• John (9/5): -
• Meredith (1/5): -
• Leigh (8/5): Cute & cosy - Cute cosy lodge. Comfortable bed. Very relaxing. Great facilities, hot tub was lovely. Outside set up was nice, table/chairs and good view of the 🐑 🐑. Umbrella with the seating, so could sit outside if it was raining. The option to use the fire with logs and marshmallows was a nice touch. Lovely warm shower, great water pressure. Very clean. Could do milk sachets for tea. Bathroom was not conveniently placed but did what it needed to. (For someone who likes to get up for a wee 2+ times a night) it was freezing going to and from the lodge. The sign to the entrance could do with being displayed from both directions as we drove past it on arrival 😆
• Colleen (8/5): -
• Pam (9/5): -
• ERROL (7/5): -
• Michelle (8/5): Lovely stay - Location and hot tub
• Joyce (9/5): A jewel in the Wales which glampers will love. - The cabin was clean and very well presented with everything we needed and more for our stay - The surroundings were beautiful and the environment was so relaxing. The other guests were friendly and welcoming. I can not think of anything I didn't like. I have never been glamping before and for a newbie this was an amazing start.
• Richard (9/5): -
• Jessica (10/5): Beautiful place will definitely be returning - Property is in a beautiful setting, clean, spacious and generally a beautiful place! Hot tub was a bonus again immaculate! Nothing at all
• Sunil Nikita (9/5): -
• Karl (8/5): -
• Nikesh (10/5): -
• Clive (10/5): Ideallic. Thank you - Comfort, tranquility and the beautiful scenery. We’d been touring Wales in our Campervan and this was the icing on the cake. One small criticism would be that the steps to our pod were pretty steep , mind you we are over 70!
• V. Kozhanova (8/5): Highly recommended - Lovely glamping experience. Nothing
• Greg (10/5): Excellent - Everything Nothing
• Shannon (9/5): Amazing quite get away - We wanted a hot tub get away that was in the middle of no where, that is exactly what this felt like, with the ease of tescos, pubs and takeaways being a 10 minute drive away. We cooked on an open fire, got to laze about in a hottub, all you could hear was the wildlife around you minus a few cars and had the cutest little hut/cabin. It was perfect for what we wanted. Only thing is bed was broken (we noticed late) so was uncomfortable but this will not stop us from going back and having a longer stay next time.
• Celine (10/5): -
• Richard (8/5): Clean and warm, just what required - Excellent clean shower. Heater . General cleanliness Next 2 two pods with hot tubs with music blasting out. Not owners fault . Disappointing humans who go to country and take the city with them
• Żółkiewska (9/5): - Location was great - pubs and walks very close Cabin quite near to the road and price for additional fire wood. £10 for 5 logs is a bit extortionate.
• Carl (9/5): - Beautiful night at van life retreat, check in was simple with key safe. Location and views amazing. First time ive ever used a hot tub and really enjoyed it, easy to turn jets and lights on and the temperature was perfect. The bumble bee cabin was decorated to our taste and had all the basic cutlery and crockery we needed. There is a busy road behind the site, but it actually didnt affect our sleep as we though it might.
• Franz Bridel (9/5): -
• Madalina Elena (10/5): If you like a bit of escape from our busy life , here is the way to do it. All the way from London , we definitely come - The quite , cleanly air and a lot of sheeps so nice . I cannot say something bad about it , it was lovely.
• Abhi (7/5): - It was okay but it was not clean enough i dont think so they change their bedding after every guest
• Rodda (10/5): - Loved everything about it
• Jims (8/5): - Location and stage lounge was good .Staff is excellent.Hot bath tub is great. Need to provide shower gel for bath and toothbrush and toothpaste not provided .Airfryer not provided.Before it was mentioned but not in the room.
• Gemma (9/5): -
• pun (7/5): -
• megan (8/5): -
• thannush (10/5): The stay was lovely and peaceful. Good for dogs. They have got everything needed for a stay in the glamping pod - Everything Toilets being a little walk away
• Maddie (10/5): -
• Nicola (10/5): -
• Samantha (7/5): Great for a cheeky night away, but wouldn’t stay longer due to the noise from the road. - Lovely property, clean throughout, lovely view, hot tub was fab! Facilities were also clean and just a few strides away from pod. Enjoyed watching the lambs playing in the nearby field! Bed creaked all night and was in need of a new mattress, property was too close to other pods. Twice I have stayed in properties that call themselves ‘retreats’ but to me that means peaceful, however being right next to a busy road this was not the case. That said it did not ruin our stay, and it did quieten down in the evening and did not keep us awake.
• Jeenamol (9/5): -
• Heath (7/5): Ideas base to stay if exploring - Once you into the glamping grounds it was great No welcoming as you turn into the drive due to work yard on the left it wasn’t appealing like what have we booked ffs It wasn’t appealing at all Once you turn into the glamping area it was a better picture No tv or radio I know it’s glamping but walking to wash up/toilet/shower Was not my cup of tea Sofa was uncomfortable Bed was uncomfortable
• Scarlett (10/5): Lovely rural escape. - We had a fantastic time here for a little mini break away. Tucked away in Fox Lodge overlooking a field of sheep and enjoying the wood fired hot tub was the perfect way to spend our Easter weekend. We definitely appreciated the privacy that it offered being all tucked away. The hosts were so accommodating by helping me to arrange a surprise for my partner as well as being really proactive with communications. The lodge was well equipped and the en suite bathroom was a life saver during Storm Dave! The cabin has a kettle, toaster, microwave and fridge/freezer so we were able to sort breakfast and our morning coffee out. Definitely take your own tea and coffee when you go as well as any speciality bits like sweeteners. The WiFi was surprisingly good and definitely a perk if you didn’t want to be completely off grid. The wood fired hot tub takes from 1-3 hours to heat. Which wasn’t a problem for us, but something to keep in mind if you’re hoping to arrive and get in the hot tub straight away. Some fresh hand soap in the kitchenette would have been great but definitely not an essential or anything to take away from what was a fantastic mini break.
• akash (10/5): -
• David (5/5): We loved the facilities, but didn’t feel we benefitted from the full potential that the property offered. - The chalet was clean, tidy and well equiped. The bathroom was also very clean Unfortunately, our stay was spoiled by the noisy family in the chalet next door. Their 2 dogs barked every time anyone walked past to the bathroom/kitchen area and they were shouting and talking loudly until well after 11pm. We were so looking forward to the peace and tranquility that the property promised, but ended up feeling anxious and tired when we left. With no staff on site, there was no option but to suffer the noisy behaviour.
• Angela Meilan (10/5): -
• Rhys (10/5): -
• Voldemaras (8/5): - Good place and cozy atmosphere All good
• HARITA (10/5): -
• Costain-Willians (10/5): Fantastic Short or Long Break - It was a fantastic night away. The location was stunning. It was very secluded, even from the neighbouring Pods. The view from the double doors was forest. The hot tub was excellent and you get a good supply of wood for the fire pit. The whole experience was just like camping but much warmer! We loved the little decorations in the theme with the name of the Lodge. Definitely recommend the dawn chorus. There was nothing we didn't like but a suggestion would be to have a bucket for wet swimming things.
• Jithin (1/5): Really frustrating and bad experience ever i had - I can’t even enter the property Waited with my family for 3 hours night for the keys Customer service Never take a call
• Kirsty (10/5): -
• samantha (10/5): Loved the whole day/night - Hot tub was amazing! Amazing views. The cabin itself was lovely,clean and the toilet block was clean. Loved how we had our own private shower/toilet. Everyone else around us were respectful and friendly. The only negative … which is so small but our cabin was a bit on the wonk when inside. But would never stop me from coming back as i loved the whole evening.
• Naomi (10/5): Excellent value for money, wonderful location and extremely cosy - The property is located in an absolutely beautiful area, with really lovely views. The room was cosy, very clean and comfortable.
• Bhavani (10/5): Very good and tidy very convenient to everything - Ambience is very good Nothing
• sarah (10/5): fabulous night away and accommodation - the space was fabulous! beautiful views , loads of room , big comfortable bed . very clean , a separate big bathroom . The lovely extras like the fire pit and hot tub . we rented the pod called hedgehog and all the features had hedgehogs on . The lovely friendly staff. I loved the decking complete with furniture . There’s a lot to like .
• Joshua (1/5): Joke of a place - Nothing Everything
• Barber (7/5): -
• Ben (9/5): Great place, well laid out - check that you get a welcome message (WhatsApp) which has all the info - lovely place, great setting and nicely setup.
• Cerys (8/5): Very cozy looking lodge - Lodge being comfy and quiet place There’s nothing bad to say
• Savannah (10/5): Incredible place! - Absolutely brilliant! Had everything we needed, a perfect get away Could hear the train at night however didn’t bother us at all
• M (9/5): We enjoyed watching birds while having our breakfast and sitting outside on a sunny morning. - Having our own designated bathroom facilities. A small detail, but the quality of the toilet paper was excellent. Fairy lights were very pretty and practical when taking the dog out in the middle of the night.
• Jenny (10/5): - I loved the location, the Lodge, the decor, the hot tub. It was all very relaxing and perfect for what we were looking for, absolutely loved it. There wasnt really anything we didnt like, it was all amazing
• RameshKochi (8/5): -
• Jones (10/5): - Everything it was easy to check in clean, comfortable location was beautiful. Nothing
• Anish (10/5): A beautiful, cosy getaway with amazing views that completely exceeded our expectations. - We had such a lovely stay at Glamping Life Retreat. The best part for us was definitely the location; the view was amazing and made it feel so peaceful and relaxing. Waking up to such beautiful scenery was something we won’t forget. The cabin looked beautiful, especially at night with all the lights on. It felt really cosy and special. We also loved the fire pit idea. We stayed in the Hare-themed cabin and honestly loved it. The theme was done so nicely and made the whole place feel even more unique. Everything was better than we expected and you can tell a lot of thought has gone into it. We would definitely come back again!

• Tegan (10/5): It was very relaxing - I liked the privacy
• Bradley (10/5): -
• Edey (10/5): Short stay - The space and the hot tub and that we had our own kitchen and bathroom. It was nice and relaxing in the hot tub with all the lights on NA
• Jason (10/5): -
• Rhiannon (8/5): - Beautiful location, comfy bed and a lovely and clean pod. That the wood fired hot tub took a few hours to heat. As the check in was at 3, maybe if it had been started prior it may not have taken so long
• Kiran (8/5): -
• Mathew (10/5): -
• Connor (10/5): -
• Jack (10/5): - The pod was clean and the location was perfect, very quiet. The pod is good value for money, communication through the hosts were easy and quick replies too.
• Elaine (10/5): -
• Leslie (9/5): A nice break from a standard hotel room - Although m/wave toaster & kettle were in the pod. Not used as we ate elsewhere in the local area or before arriving. Perhaps a small rail could be incorporated to hang up some of your jackets/clothing. In our case, the fox cabin. Also a temporary sign with the sites name might help as still using previous name.
• Brooke (7/5): Really enjoyed, hot tub was lovely and beautiful views and towns local by - Location was beautiful and property was very clean and cosy. The front door was slightly faulty locked us in a few times and had to open window to get out, bed wasn’t the comfiest.
• Megan (10/5): -
• Lily (8/5): Peaceful, relaxing and comfortable - The room was very clean and the property hosts were very helpful in sorting out our needs. Communication was great and the location was lovely and peaceful. We enjoyed the hot tub and had a lovely time. We would definitely stay again, we really enjoyed our time. The bed was also extremely comfortable! We had to travel by car to visit anywhere but it really was lovely we had a great time.
• Libby (10/5): -
• Bethan (9/5): Fantastic hot tub cabin - The hot tub was insane and the price was fantastic Wasted a bit of time trying to find out which cabin was ours as we hadn’t been sent the welcome message and video but quickly resolved and impressed with our stay

• Gaby (6/5): Staff were very accommodating and it was at very peaceful at night however, nothing is private about the fire pit and th - Staff were lovely and accommodating and the location looks quite cute at night. Location is also very easy to get too. Very small inside and the fire pit is not private. Toilet facilities are also away from the ‘lodge’. Take entertainment as there is no radio/tv but they do provide board games within the lodges. ( RWD vehicles may struggle during the winter due to a quite steep hill to get into the lodge and it is gravel parking)
