Guests say
Guests have had delightful stays at Laurel Pod, praising its cosy atmosphere, cleanliness, and the ready-to-use hot tub. The property offers a peaceful retreat with a touch of romance, enhanced by fairy lights and a private outdoor space. Its proximity to local attractions and transport links makes it convenient, while the complimentary gift hamper adds a charming touch to the warm welcome.
Reviewers consistently mention that the pod is clean and tidy, indicating high standards of cleanliness.
The property's location is appreciated for its beauty, quietness, and convenience to shops, pubs, and transport to Liverpool, though no specific negative comments provide a perfect score.
The pod is described as warm, cosy, and comfortable, with a particularly comfy bed. However, some mention of a squeaky bed and difficulty regulating temperature prevents a higher score.
Facilities like the hot tub are well-received, but there are minor issues with stiff doors and windows, which suggests room for improvement in maintenance.
Guests love the complimentary gift hamper, finding it a thoughtful gesture, though it's important to note that such gifts are a bonus and not guaranteed.

We stayed here for 2 nights, overall it was a lovely little get away, the hot tub was ready to go and the gift hamper was a nice little treat. The area was beautiful and Ormskirk train station being around a 10 minute drive from the pod was a bonus to allow us to travel to Liverpool in under an hour for a lovely night and a few drinks, would recommend!

We spent an unforgettable weekend here for my birthday, and everything was just amazing! The atmosphere is magical — especially in the evening when the fairy lights and lanterns come on. It felt like a little wonderland ✨Everything was very well prepared: the caravan was warm and cozy, the jacuzzi was ready and hot. We were pleasantly surprised by the complimentary gift box with treats — such a lovely touch!It’s a peaceful, quiet, and romantic place — perfect for a couple’s getaway. We will definitely come back 💛

We stayed here for 2 nights this week and it is very nice! Everything you need, clean and modern.Inside the pod it does get very hot when the weather is nice but you can't leave the doors open due to bugs and insects.The door and windows are a bit stiff and hard to close and the bed is comfy but very squeaky.Very close to shops and bars/pubs which is handy! It's in a quiet area so no disturbance during the night.The hot tub was ready to use when we got there.We will definitely be booking again 😊
