Penkill Lodge Reviews

Peter
Excellent place for a weekend break, well equipped, clean and the sea view while still being in the middle of the countryside is perfect, private outdoor hot tub and the surrounding decking is top class!
Sarah
Me and my partner stayed at the Penkill lodge for a week and we both absolutely loved it! It was so relaxing and the views were stunning. Just picture perfect. Would definitely go again!
Sara
We had a lovely relaxing break at Pirleyhill Pods. The pods are in a beautiful location with a sea view - perfect spot for a sunset. Lots of attention to detail in what is provided - bbq with gas, hot tub under shelter, bottle of prosecco in the fridge, information about the local area and takeaway menus. The pods are really comfortable with a well equipped kitchen. Lots to explore in the local area as well! Would highly recommend!
Katarzyna
Amazing lodge with great localization, peaceful and quiet. Highly recommended.
Ann

Jose

Terrance
Amazing cottage best place to stay for weeks and good views
Georgia
The lodges are in a great location. Fantastic views with peace & quiet apart from the birds chirping & the Cows mooing. Such a lovely place. Even in the rain. Hot Tub has shelter so still allows use while it's raining and great when the sun came out. Great watching the sunrise & sunset. A great compact space but still comfy for 2 especially with ch airs and tables inside & out. We'd definitely come back and book another Pod again. Easy to find with good signposting. Great hosts too.
David
Just had a long weekend in penkill Lodge with my wife and we both loved it . Just what we needed very peaceful and quiet. We will definitely be back ,infact already looking at dates for a return
Lucas
The owners couldnt do enough for us they went above and beyond, Stuart was just a call or a text away if you needed any help or advice about anything. Perfect location if you want to get away from the city life with a lot of walking trails boat trips to isle of aaran or to Alisa Craig. All in all a perfect little get away.
Umran

Jamie
We had a fantastic stay and were delighted to find a bottle of Prosecco and a carton of milk in the fridge... perfect. The accommodation was very comfortable, clean and well equipped. Very friendly welcome and they couldn't do enough for us. We would definitely recommend Pirleyhill Pods to anyone.
Debbie
Me and my wife had the best 4 days away in penkill pod, the hot tub is so relaxing with a really nice view, there are some really good places to go for food or you can get it delivered to the pod, the owners are so nice and if you need anything they are there, we will be booking again in the future
Gabriel
Excellent location and perfect little lodge
Natasha
It was a beautiful place to stay, with unbelievable views. The pods are very cosy and relaxing as was the hot tub. I would recommend it an a weekend getaway.
David
The place was so nice, clean, tidy, quiet and everything was great Consider going back
Niamh
We stayed at Penkill Lodge, it was nice inside and the location was surreal, very isolated. The hottub was great too. We had a very fun long weekend here. The owners even had a bottle of Champagne and milk on arrival which was a lovely touch. Overall, a brilliant experience. The only thing Id say negatively was that there was a bit of water leakage from the rain outside coming from the doors and window, but as it was a January storm, I can begin to understand this. Would love to come back!
Lorraine
Stayed in the Penkill pod for a 2nd time. We love it here so peaceful the hot tub is great and the pod itself is amazing so clean and comfortable and has everything you need for your stay.
Georgia
Lovely cottage, so quiet and peaceful with a great view. Owners were very helpful and friendly would definitely recommend.
Samuel
This was a really nice place to stay for a few days, the views are lovely and the property is clean and accessible. Its private and you're left alone to do your own thing but the owners are on hand should you need anything. Would highly recommend.
Kevin
Plenty of room Very nice facilities in the cabin. The views are great and the hot tub was great.
Andrew
Lovely location and cosy little cabin. Lots of activities to do in surrounding areas. Very relaxing getaway
Steven
Really amazing pod and location, owner very friendly and helpful with good knowledge of local attractions and activities, would definitely stay again
Ian
5 star accommodation at the top of a hill. Spectacular views ... from the hot tub ... and sunsets too. The lodge had everything you need for a pleasant stay. The water was piping hot, the shower was excellent and lighting, oven, fridge/freezer and wifi worked perfectly. I could not fault this. The owners are on site and are happy to help you with a nything. They equally respect your privacy and leave you to it unless you wish to speak to them. I would recommend this for a break with a difference.
Tim
Such a peaceful place with gorgeous views over to Arran. We had a mixture of weather from blue skies to driving wind and rains. The pod is amazingly well insulated and even in the high winds was quiet and beautifully warm. The hot tub was hot and clean - just like everything. Great hosts - and cows and sheep visit along the fence. WiFi was ok and e nough to stream Netflix etc without issue. Girvan is about 10mins down the road with a good sized ASDA/ pharmacy / petrol etc.
Jenna
Beautiful lodge with a lovely view. It had everything we needed for a 3 night stay. Perfect hot tub getaway
Jennifer
Our third visit to Pirleyhill pods and as always we werent disappointed, Stuart and son Kyle always go above and beyond to make sure everything is perfect. Pods are always clean, comfortable and have everything you need. Looking for a short break? You wont be disappointed if you book Pirleyhill pods
Kyle
We had a lovely stay, everything was exactly as described and as expected, beautiful views and a quiet surrounding. A perfect getaway.
Adam
We absoloutely loved our stay at the Penkill Pods. The owners are very welcoming, the facilities are great, the location is amazing with plenty to do in the surrounding area. We will definitely be back in the near future.
Susan
Clean, well equipped but compact. Lovely and relaxing and the hot tub was perfect. Will definitely be back.
Leeanne
Beautiful location and very friendly owners. We had an amazingly, chilled weekend. Exactly what we needed!
Nathan
Honestly, couldnt fault anything at all. Stuart is an absolute gent, pods are perfect for a break away. Peaceful, beautiful views and if you need anything Girvan is literally 10 minutes down the road. Stunning place to stay even if you explore whilst you are there and use it as a base. Getting in the hot tub after a long day with a lovely view is s econd to none. Everything is there that you need for your stay. Will 100% be going back.
