Camping Pod - Camping Pods (Dog Friendly) Dec 2024

Highly recommended, the pod was spotless, warm and cozy. Site was really quiet and clean, toilets and shower rooms nice and clean. The only problem was that the toilets were far from our pod, rather than that everything was perfect. Our dog definitely enjoyed it😊
