Many guests found the pods clean and fresh on arrival, but several reviews mentioned issues such as dirty floors, marks on walls, and occasional unpleasant odours. Some guests also reported finding hair in beds and dust in certain areas, indicating inconsistency in cleaning standards.
The property is praised for its peaceful setting and proximity to local towns, making it convenient for day trips. However, its position near busy roads means some guests experienced traffic noise, which affected the sense of tranquillity for a few visitors.

I would recommend Arran hills , it’s in a peaceful location, and only a little site, you definitely need to have a car to get around. The only thing that would make it better is if the hot tubs had a canopy over them as it’s not much fun being in the hot tub in the rain, and stopped me from going in it as I felt like I couldn’t relax whilst being rained on. Apart from window ledges being a little dusty it was clean, could have done with have a sweeping brush as we could not brush the floor. But apart from that we have the best time.

The cabin is okay for a one night stay. However, it was pretty run down. It could do with a freshen up. There was a hole in the flooring, chips out the door. Mould around the seal in the shower. Facilities were fine, It just seemed to have seen better days and could do with a spruce up. Can’t fault the host, they were lovely. However, could maybe do with a reception area when you arrive as we had no idea where to go until they magically popped up to our car in the middle of the park. You are in the middle of nothing, so you need to drive everywhere and there are 2 very busy roads which surround the park, so expect to hear traffic.

Very run down, in need of major work. Found several hairs in the bed under the pillow case. The sofa bed was falling to pieces. There was a large hole in the side of the lodge next to the patio doors.
