Glamping Pod - Enlli Ensuite Glamping Pod (Dog Friendly)Jun 2025
The pod was perfect. It was spotless and we had everything we needed. There was plenty of room for four of us and the outdoor space was great. Really safe for the children and the games room was great for them. The pod is only a short drive from Aberdaron, where we spent a nice day on the beach. Great communication prior to our stay and before we l left. We will definitely be back.
Fantastic pods!

Glamping Pod - Enlli Ensuite Glamping Pod (Dog Friendly)May 2025
My 13 year old son and I had a lovely stay here at the start of May half term. It was really easy to find and the parking space is very near to the pods, which we were worried about as it was dark and raining when we arrived.
The pod is really spacious and comfy, and there was extra space in the shed next door. The shower was warm and everything was clean. The games room was fantastic and really handy as we spent quite a bit of time on the site, as the weather was very mixed and also my son was slightly under the weather as well. The wood burner was perfect when we needed to warm up and hide from the rain!
The area is beautiful. We've been several times before, so, as the weather was quite hit and miss, we just stuck to Old Favourites when we got nice spells. We did a cliff top walk at Aberdaron, fish and chips on the beach at Abersoch and the walk along the beach at Morfa Nefyn to the Ty Coch Inn and back. We went to Zip World at Betws-y-Coed on the way home.
The only feedback we have is that a strainer/ colander (or pan lids) would be a useful addition to the kitchen equipment as I suspect a lot of people opt to cook pasta on the stove, as we did!
Thanks for a fantastic holiday!
Simply perfect

Highly recommend. Peaceful, beautiful and a true escape. The pods are exceptionally clean and provide all the basic things you need.
They were very cosy and snug, don't forget to take your logs for the fire. It was a great area for walking, cycling and relaxing. A perfect little spot.
