The Laurels camping pod (no pets)
Liked: Well equipped pods on a small and quiet site. Very clean unit and on arrival a small welcome pack was a nice surprise. Pod had a lovely kitchen that had all the equipment and mod cons that you might require during your stay. Shower was lovely and hot. Nice little patio to sit on in front of the pod when the weather allowed. Site well suited and positioned for my needs. Pub within walking distance but did not get to use it this time. Would return to this site.

The Beeches camping pod (pet friendly)
Liked: We loved the coziness and cleanliness of the pod and the little extras provided!(little slippers and gingerbread plus toiletries) So clean and well kept…it was pet friendly and we didn’t take ours but you would not have been able to tell if a dog had been in there! Loved the fact the site was so quiet and adult only. Thank you Yvonne for being friendly when we saw you after our night out in a lovely little town. Really liked The Red Lion (Joules Brewery) and The Hippodrome and also The Four Alls for Sunday lunch! We had a lovely walk from the pod to town via the canal but beware it’s muddy and my sandals got a bit muddy…we didn’t date risk the walk back this way after a few drinks! Nice sat outside in the evening with our candles on and a lovely throw provided in the pod. It was perfect! Don’t hesitate…we visited the Hawkstone Follies and they too were AMAZING!
Disliked: Nothing!

The Beeches camping pod (pet friendly)
Liked: Beautiful location and fabulous little pod with everything you need for little holidays. Nearby pub (walking distance) offers nice food and nearby town (Market Drayton 5 minutes in a car) has some lovely walks and worthy a visit and tasting session local brewery with attached pub. Can't fault this place, which gives you the chance to immerse yourself in tranquility of its surroundings.

Liked: Lovely little wooden glamping hut finished to a very high standard . Very informative guest book from local takeaways and pub to how to work the induction hob no stone was left unturned . The host was lovely and polite came over to greet us . The location was lovely and quiet with only few other campers on site the nice relax we as a couple needed .

The Laurels camping pod (no pets)
Liked: Really peaceful location, the pod was spotlessly clean with everything you could need. Beautifully done out. Bed was very comfy, Yvonne the hostess was lovely & even bought me over a fan as it was really hot day/night. Didnt want for anything. Thouroughly enjoyed my stay, perfect if you want to get away from everything.
Disliked: There is nothing to fault!
