Camping pod
Liked: The site is relatively small, very tidy, some distance between the pods. The electric shower was a bonus. I was offered to check out a bit later if needed to if we wanted to. The owners were nice and friendly. Would go back. Free netflix on the TV but you need to provide your own WiFi.
Disliked: The lighting in the pod was too bright. I would suggest a dimmer switch, a lamp or lampshade.
