Great pod in a great location, had a lovely weekend staying here as it is in a prime location between tourist hotspots such as scarborough, filey and bridlinton. The pod was welcoming and so was the owner who sent a lovely message full of great information before we arrived. Very quiet at night next to the farm where there was different animals and the hottub was a lovely touch.

Had a wonderful week long stay in early October. The Pods are very welcoming and homely and have everything you need. The radiator soon warms the pod up if it is a little chilly but we were surprised at how warm the pod was anyway. The pods are well spaced out and with their own fenced decking area feels very private, the hot tub was lovely and with dark skies we enjoyed watching the stars! A very quiet site, perfect for unwinding and relaxing. Farmer Sam was also very friendly and nothing was too much trouble. We will no doubt visit again in the future, Thank you for a lovely stay!
