Everything was fabulous! Mel and Tom were the best hosts, quick to respond, and always happy to help. Everything was handmade, which was a lovely touch and gave it a really homely feel. The decor was sweet with lovely lights lighting things up...

The glamping pods are fantastic together with all the facilities , so close to Newquay and surrounding areas and I would highly recommend. The kids loved it and so did our dog and we will definitely use again in the future

The communication was excellent. Tom and Mel answered all my questions honestly and felt like they really cared about my queries. I didn’t actually stay but organised a stay over for my son and his girlfriend. They loved the place, the location...
