The Beech pod was spotlessly clean in a beautiful location. The hot tub was checked every day by the owners who were also on hand for information on walks and ideas to do things locally. My grand daughter picked the pod, and although I'm a cottage fan, she loved it and didn't want to leave. We had some friends visit, and they're looking to book one of the pods as they were impressed by them. We all said the experience would be amazing with a snowy backdrop.
