  • "Beautiful pod!"

    We had a lovely stay at Callow pod, amazing views and a beautifully furnished pod. The only struggle we had was finding ways to dry towels etc, we could have a done with a drying wrack. Other than that the pod provided us with everything we needed to have a relaxing time away and switch off from the world. We explored the hills behind the pod with the dog and came back to enjoy the hot tub which was fab! Overall a fantastic place to unwind with beautiful surroundings, would definitely visit again!

    Hi! Thanks so much for your feedback. I apologise for the lack of drying areas, the towel rail is pretty good but if you have alot to dry I can see it wouldn't be enough. We have now put in a clothes airer mounted on the wall for guest use so hopefully this helps. Thankyou for bringing it to our attention. Kind regards Angie Property Owner

    We love the location , properties and hosts. The quality of the pods are second to none. Every time we return there is a little extra like a cafatiere. All the little extras turn the pod from great to amazing. A warm welcome pace of home made brownies and fizz, a great way to start a break. We will be back next year .

    Thankyou so so much for your continued support for our little business here. :) It means a lot when people continue to come back and we assume we're getting something right! All little extra touches are usually guest suggested if they've missed a little something so we thank you all for giving us the heads up for those little things... Very much look forward to seeing you again in the future. Many many thanks Angie. Property Owner

  • "I stayed at Callow Pod with my two teenagers and dog."

    The pod was extremely well equipped and presented with the most beautiful finishing touches. I very much appreciated the attention to detail and how the space was used - the four of us were very comfortable. With walks from the doorstep offering incredible views, perfect privacy, security for our pup and warm cosy furnishings we could not have asked for more. The owners were beyond accommodating and helpful. As seasoned pod dwellers I can safely say this is the best so far. We will certainly be back and cannot recommend highly enough!

  • "This is a new (opened late December 2022) quirky, comfortable, warm, well equipped and clean pod in a quiet location."

    It is a the last in line of 4 pods (the others are single story ones) and as it is at the end of the road no one has reason to come up to your pod. It is accessed up a well made farm track with very little around it and that makes for a lovely peaceful location. There is also very little light pollution in the immediate area so on a clear night you can see many stars, fantastic whilst sat in the hot tub. The owner was lovely and helpful on local things to do and left a well received welcome pack for us on arrival. The sunrise view through the front upstairs bedroom window (from the warmth and comfort of bed) across the valley on a clear sky morning was stunning. The hot tub was spotlessly clean and it was warm and ready to use immediately on arrival, it was also chemical checked by the owner daily. The walks directly from the pod on the hills behind it are endless and a fantastic benefit to have from the doorstep. The wifi at the pod was strong and stable and there is a good phone signal there too. The pod is not suitable to all due to the tight spiral staircase and the open plan and low ceiling bedrooms, but it was absolutely brilliant for us (2 adults and an 11 year old).

  • "We absolutely loved this pod."

    It is set off the beaten track with no traffic noise and absolutely stunning views. The pod was immaculate and had everything we needed, and the bed was super comfy (very low ceilings upstairs but we found them very fun!) On our last night we lay in the hot tub and looked at the stars which were very clear, it was brilliant. Local walks were brilliant, especially through the gate up to the stone circle. Our dog loved the space around the pod, there was plenty of space. Although there are 4 pods together, we didn't hear our neighbours once. We fully didn't want to leave!! Highly recommended.
