Glamping Pod - Coiltie Ensuite Glamping Pod (Dog Friendly)Mar 2025
We stayed at the Coiltie Glampod for 2 nights. John, the host, was extremely welcoming and sent information on how to get to the pod and suggestions on where to eat in the local area prior to arriving. Once we arrived, he came and welcomed us giving more information on the pod and the area.
We had our dog with us and the addition of the dog welcome pack was a lovely touch, and she loved the ball and treats. The pod itself was very modern and enough space for us all. Was well equipped with everything we needed, the underfloor heating was great and we actually had to switch it off as it was so warm in the pod. We also had a welcome pack, which was greatly appreciated.
The pod is well situated to explore the local area and everyone we met locally was very friendly and welcoming. I would highly recommend staying here.
