The intimate studio layout, private hot tub and peaceful setting create a perfect atmosphere for quality time together.

Goose Pod Reviews

The original pod was lovely and in really nice countryside. I had a problem with the heating so I called the owner and he came straight around to try and get it sorted. He wasnt able to fix it so he gave me an upgrade to a bigger cabin. The owners are amazing and Im already wanting to go back there maybe in the summer.
We just returned from our stay in the goose pod, and my wife, our dog, and I really enjoyed it. The pod was just the right size for all of us and had everything we needed to cook some meals. The BBQ was clean and worked well. We relaxed in the hot tub and enjoyed some lovely walks with Luna. The owners' dog was quite entertaining and came down a few times to play with her. We had a delicious roast dinner at The Bridge in Stanford, which was only a 9minute drive away. I was surprised by the number of sheep in the area, but they didnt bother us or our dog. Overall, we had a great time. The only disappointment was that we couldnt go fishing, which was a major draw for me. I will keep an eye out for when fishing is available again, and Id love to come back to try it out
Stuart
Very disappointed to have booked a fishing break to then be told after the booking we couldnt fish. even tho others were fishing when we arrived so that really made the break for us very disappointing. up arriving at the pod, it looks nice however its certainly showing its age. the floor is all damaged, the bed is held together with pieces of junk timber, the doors are difficult to open and close due to lack of maintenance. the exterior furniture is nothing like shown in the pictures which is shame as no external sofa, the chairs are not comfortable. hot tub was fine and nice to sit out late in the evening and watch the stars. bathroom and kitchen area were clean so thats a positive. word of warning to anyone with a low or performance vehicle the track to get to the lodges is very uneven and one section is very steep so likely will ground out your vehicle. it is on a working farm but it isnt described in the listing at all so would have been nice to have been informed.
Leanne
Lovely pod in beautiful surroundings, the pod had everything you need, washing ... Lovely pod in beautiful surroundings, the pod had everything you need, washing up liquid, hand soap, cloths and binbags etc was very impressed with how clean everything was, the only problem was the smell out the front of the pod, smelt like sewage
We had a fantastic stay the goose pod. The lake was beautiful and the sheep made us laugh. We had the perfect weather and spent most of our time in the hot tub taking in the beautiful views. The owners of the place are lovely and we will definitely be returning and we both can't wait. Thankyou for an amazing stay.
Wow, we loved this place and will definitely be coming back. Well stocked kitchen and bathroom and just enough of everything for both of us and our two dogs. The hot tub was welcome after walking for hours. the local pub was wonderful too. So nice and secluded. Perfect for us. Thank you for the carts for carrying our luggage too
Rhiannon
We had the most amazing stay at Goose Pod. It is equipped with everything you need for your stay. I chilled and my husband fished. He caught one large carp and several smaller fish! It's a beautiful setting, perfect for relaxing and enjoying the surroundings. We will definitely be returning, we enjoyed every minute of our stay.
Teresa
It was just what it said on the tin. ...remote, quiet, apart from the sheep, but they never bothered with us. Great spot of you want to get away from it all, the facilities were looking tired, the umbrella was broken and we had a leak in the shower room, but it was not big enough to bother us, so I would have given more because we did have a relaxing time away from it all and we more than likely go back and I have already recommended the pods to friends already.
Stephen
Pod was great with everything you needed plus more fishing was awful nobody ... Pod was great with everything you needed plus more fishing was awful nobody catching as they have a problem with otters eating and killing the fish we saw four dead fish in three days
Never seen the owner but the place was lovely. Hot tub was lovely and clean. Nice and quiet. Loved the sheep and the lambs. Only problem was there were ants over our kitchen side in our room. Near to our kettle. Didnt see anyone for new towels but we were happy with our stay and it was lovely and peaceful for us. I do think the price was too much for what it is though.
Stayed 3 years ago, it was looking a bit worse for wear. It's still a nice experience, though
Michelle
Accommodation was lovely, couple of gripes as not normally a moaner. Hot tub buttons dont do as stated but managed to work them out and couldnt light BBQ, needs updating really. Other than that its a beautiful place to stay.
Amazing stay at goose pod. Fishing was great. Landed 20 carp up to 20lb. Facilities was great. Definitely will be staying again soon.
Lovely for a short get away for a short stay, hot tub is lovely. Would definitely recommend
Olivia
We had a lovely couple of nights stay, it was in a perfect location and was nice to chill and relax before the new year.
Vivien
Lovely well equipped pod, beautiful views, hot tub fabulous
Absolutely amazing spot! We had a lovely relaxing break, the hot tub was perfect, fishing was great. The owners were fab and really helpful. The pod is perfectly fitted out. We will definitely be back thank you for creating a beautiful place to recharge the batteries.
Vincent
A wonderful little break. The sheep greeted us with curious stares as we pulled the complimentary trolleys past them, carrying our bags to the pod. We loved the pod and fenced off private space which was cosy but still spacious. Within hours of arriving we were greeted by a beautiful Kingfisher, who perched on the fence for a good 5mins. That evening we saw the milkyway for the first time in a very very long time. The bed and new sofa were super comfy. The fencing was adequate for our Lhasa Apso. Only issue was the smoke alarm didnt like any frying bacon, french toast in the small space with door and window open and our dog is scared of loud alarms The outside grills flame kept going out due to strong winds, we had to get some disposable charcoal BBQ. Would highly recommend to all our friends & family, and wed possibly join them with the option to book multiple podscabins at the same time.
We had an amazing time relaxing in Goose Pod, it was perfect in every way. You had everything you needed and we didnt need to leave the pod. We spent the whole weekend fishing and relaxing outside our pod. When we woke up early in the morning the pod was surrounded by sheep, and the view out to the lake was perfect. Would definitely recommend staying at this lovely place.
Such a lovely place so relaxing, the owners are so lovley and very helpful. Loved it so much we are back next month.
Fantastic break, peaceful and relaxing x
Third time coming and we would return again and find it enjoyable still. The pod is clean and has everything you need inside. The welcome booklet is helpful. Lots of nature to watch outside the pod. Fishing was good, caught 20lb carp, one thing would be that the net does require replacing as it is very worn. Another lovely relaxing stay.
Louise
We stayed here last week for 2 nights and we will definitely be returning! The lodge itself was perfect and the scenery was a bonus, the decking when the sun is shining is like being on holiday ha. Also wanted to say a big thank to Andy for taking time to come and show us how the BBQ worked and taking time to have a chat with us.
Great little stay, only thing we did find is the fencing is all fenced off around the pod to stop dogs escaping and letting sheep in, but the gate hasnt, so our little dogs could escape through the gate. Silly little thing but thats the only issue we had.
First time visiting and I can certainly say it definitely wont be the last! Such a relaxing peaceful place to visit. All the locals are lovely and super friendly, definitely somewhere Id recommend
On a whole the property was as expected. It advertised what was included and a nice quiet atmosphere to relax in the evenings. We did had a few issue with regards to the bathroom. The toilet seat was off its hinges, we were able to put it back on. The plug hole system was broken it wouldnt allow the flow of water to go down. Each time we had to lift it up to let the water out. Might be worth the owners checking that out. We would stay there again.
Was an absolute beautiful holiday, gorgeous views and so peaceful! Was a bit difficult with a husky as he wanted to keep jumping in the lake but we used a long lead and attached him to the floor just a tip for people with crazy dogs
I arrived & found the hot tub wasnt working. Cintacted Sykes who called the owner. They arrived within 30 minutes, unfortunatley the issue could nor be fixed at this time. We were offered an ungrade to log cabin which we gatefully accepted with pleasure. The owner was friendly & helpful even offering to move our luggage Had an amazing stay in an idealic location. peaceful & cabin had everything & some. Would highly recommend both sykes for ease of booking & informative. The owners of the property for the fast response to our issue & for the upgrade to make our break even better, will def come back. forger to mention the fishing 5 carp caught ranging from 2319ib.
Gareth
Fantastic weekend
Lovely stay, nice and clean. Pillows were a bit flat,next time I would bring my own. Hot tub brilliant, stayed for 3 nights. Asked for extra towels and got them no problem. Would definitely go back again.
William
We had a great time on our holiday, the place we were staying was clean, tidy, peaceful and had everything we needed to enjoy a few days away. I tried to do a little bit of fishing however, the fish were so small they couldnt even bite onto the smallest hook I had available. The only thing I could suggest to make it more enjoyable is to stock some bigger carp as this is quite a large lake and the likelihood of catching anything is slim. This would turn it into an amazing holiday destination and we would definitely return. We loved that the lodges and pods were separated as this allowed us to enjoy some quiet time away from the world and to relax, you should definitely keep it this way. Thank you for a great holiday!
Shania
Had a wonderful couple of days staying here, very quiet and peaceful. Perfect amount of privacy! Managed to cook full meals with everything we needed! Only two things that have stopped me from giving five stars. Issues with the hot tub meant we only really had about 12 a days use of it without full functions over the three nights we stayed. And although dog friendly all the foot paths near by you had to drive too due to not being able to leave on foot with the dogs because of locked gates and cattle grids. Would come back 100
This was our second visit and we loved it! Even the weather didn't stop us from enjoying our stay. We will definitely visit again, this is our now our favourite place for a break away. Bonus for this visit was seeing all the new lambs.
The goose pod was beautiful the whole place was amazing. Very peaceful and relaxing definitely stay again
Michelle
The goose pod was amazing ,everything you could think of, clean bedding already made up, towels, tea towels, tea coffee sugar ect , Hand soap washing up liquid . .amazing . Hot tub was clean and ready to go! Barbie was clean with all the utensils and was used to its full . Wonderful stay ! Beautiful settings .quite and calm .we have booked for 2024 already ..perfect
Farren
Everything about goose pod was amazing, lovely location and had everything we needed for a few nights stay. The hot tub was amazing, so warm and clean!!
Great few nights away. Lovely location, very peaceful. Facilities and cleanliness spot on. Would definitely book again!
Accommodation was easy to find using the post code and directions provided. Parked in a dedicated car park and had a short walk to the pod. Buggies were provided to wheel luggage. On arrival at the pod it appeared exactly as advertised, and was in a clean and well maintained state. The hot tub was prewarmed and was clean. The heating within the lodge was already on and was very welcoming. There are 4 pods on the site, which are far enough away from eachother to not seem overlooked and we felt we had privacy, but was a nice feeling knowing other people were around in case of emergency. Beautiful pod, great views. The only negative was a loose toilet seat, but otherwise perfect. Will book again in the future
Nathan
Nice view, very private. 20 mins to tesco extra
