Guests say
Guests have had a delightful experience at Creyr Glas Pod, praising its cleanliness, peaceful rural setting, and the added luxury of a hot tub. The accommodation is well-equipped and cosy, offering a relaxing getaway with beautiful surroundings. While some guests missed having a garden and local amenities, the overall sentiment is highly positive, with special mentions of the welcoming touches like milk and Welshcakes upon arrival.
The pod has received high commendations for its spotlessness and well-maintained condition, with multiple guests noting the cleanliness as a standout feature.
The location is appreciated for its beautiful rural setting and tranquillity. However, a few guests noted the lack of local pubs and hikes, which suggests that while the setting is idyllic, it may not cater to all preferences.
The pod is consistently described as cosy, warm, and comfortable, with a private bedroom that guests find very agreeable. The presence of a hot tub also contributes to the overall comfort level.
Facilities are generally praised, especially the hot tub and the well-equipped pod. However, there were minor issues such as a fly invasion and lack of clarity on hot tub maintenance, which slightly affect the score.
Guests have mentioned thoughtful gestures like the provision of milk, Welshcakes, and a pre-lit fire upon arrival. While these gifts are warmly received, it's important to note that such personal touches, though likely, are not guaranteed for every stay.

Everything was going well, nice pod, lovely hot tub & if your after quiet this is the place but then we were invaded by flies & they kept coming. There was no food laying around or anything it was after midnight, messaged the owners & got ignored & still to this day no reply. So we had no choice but to leave at 1am and drive home as they were everywhere in the lounge, bedroom & bathroom. So not great at all.
