Aconbury Pods Woodcock Reviews

Nyree
Fabulous break away. Hosts very welcoming, pod very comfortable with everything you need, hot tub lovely & warm. Our dog was happy sniffing around the enclosed garden while we relaxed in the hot tub after some lovely walks in the area. Could not fault it & we look forward to going back for another visit.
Sam
Wonderful hosts in a beautiful area, lovely and quiet. Loads of walks and a secure garden for our German Shepard was ideal for us. Hot tub was so nice, everything was clean and we had everything we could possibly need, would highly recommend and would absolutely stay here again.
Jane
Excellent pod which was very well equipped. They have thought of everything. Hosts were a lovely friendly couple. Only 2 pods so lovely and quiet with wonderful surroundings. The pod had it's own fenced off garden so it was perfect for our dog and of course the hot tub made it. Would definitely go again
Rosalind
Great stay, hosts great, will be back!
Johanna
I cannot fault this glamping experience, and it was definitely one of the more glam glamps we've been on. Of particular note was the hot tub (glorious!), the enclosed area around the pod which meant we could let the dog out for a wee without worry, and the myriad of kitchen appliances - oven, hob, microwave, fridge and DISHWASHER. What a treat! TheRead more pod was also bigger than many we'd stayed in, whilst still retaining the cosy feeling, and the view was gorgeous. And so peaceful as well. Hide
Lyndsey
This was the perfect luxe get-away for me and my dog! So peaceful despite being on a working farm that owns the land around for as far as the eye can see which was perfect for lots of long walks followed by a soak in the hot tub. The owners were so lovely and welcoming. The pod was perfect, clean and well equipped and the plot it sat on was fenced Read moreand perfectly secure for the dog. I would highly recommend and will be back! Hide
Debbie
An absolutely beautiful location and the pod was fantastic with everything you need. A lot of attention to detail. A lovely stay would definitely book again.
Peter
Fabulous. The pod had everything we could have needed. We sat in the hot tub, looking up at the stars every night listening to Owls and watching bats flying around us. Perfection. Jinny and Alan were great hosts. Definitely be back.
Sean
Excellent pod in fabulous location. Everything you need is provided - except food and drink. Nice safe garden for dogs and lots of lovely walks all around. Good fun fishing early mornings and late afternoons. Excellent hosts - nothing too much trouble. Great views from the hot tub.
Michael
Wow can't wait to go back
Katie
Absolutely loved our stay. The pod was very well equipped and facilities / things provided for convenience incredibly well thought out. Great outdoor space for our dog to run around whilst lazing in the hot tub and lovely scenery / local walks. Will definitely be back.
Bethan
We booked to stay here for our minimoon. It was the perfect place to escape and really relax. The hot tub was lovely and we cooked on the BBQ most nights. There are some lovely walks where we even saw deers is the forest. A very memorable stay.
Tracy
We really had a fantastic time. Where to start, Ginny & Alan were so friendly and helpful. The pod was very clean, and had much more room than expected. The views from the pod and hot tub were amazing. We had some great walks around the farmland and forest. We personally really enjoyed the walk to fetch some organic free range milkshakes from the v ending machine on the next farm. We found it a completely relaxing time. I forgot to mention the horses they were so friendly and just a joy to watch
Bilal
Absolutely stunning views and a beautiful place to get away and just relax. The area is safe and owners are super friendly and helpful. Would definitely recommend visiting and without a doubt you'll have a blast! (The jacuzzi is the absolute best!)

Julie
We had a fantastically peaceful & relaxing time at Aconbury Pods. It was spotlessly clean, very well equipped, warm, cosy & comfortable. Alan & Ginnie were very welcoming & friendly, also very informative. Enjoyed lovely walks around the farm and wood and fishing on the 2 lakes. Safe enclosed garden where our puppy enjoyed playing outside. The hot tub, well, that was perfect to relax in with a glass of wine and enjoy the views and the stars of an evening. Cosy too sitting by the Chimnea.
Diana
It had everything inside and you can go and chop your own wood for fire. The views are amazing. And everything is on your doorstep.
Julie
Such a peaceful location to relax in the hot tub. Secure garden ideal for the dog. Spotlessly clean with everything you could possibly need. Very welcoming hosts. Weve stayed here twice and will definitely be returning its just so relaxing!
Arlo
Amazing place to stay a real jewel in the Crown of Herefordshire country side. Spent a relaxing weekend with the dog enjoying the tranquility of the surroundings yet not to far away from some lovely places to visit. Pods are well equipped that all you need to take is beer and clothes. Thanks for a excellent weekend Jinny and hope to see you again s oon x
Fiona
This place can only be described as AMAZING. If you are looking for a chill out break to relax and unwind this is the break for you. The owners are just lovely and the provide everything you need from tea and coffee to hair dryers and straighteners, poo bags for furry visitors. The views from the pod are lovely and the surrounding area is peaceful and tranquil. I've been on many glamping type holidays and this is best by far. Brian our dog enjoyed the enclosed space to roam around also.
Carole
Simply perfect! Had a few very relaxing days away to recharge the batteries. Excellent facilities, such attention to detail - hot tub was lovely and garden was spot on for our dog too. Will miss waking up to bird song and blue skies! Plenty of walks to explore locally & husband enjoyed the fishing on the lakes. Well definitely be back! X
Fiona
Fantastic break, extremely relaxing, beautiful scenery and the owners made us feel very welcome. We have already recommended the pods to family and friends, and will most definitely be going back ourselves.
Angela
Beautiful place, so idyllic and peaceful, only stayed for a weekend, going back for a week next time. Hosts were friendly, warm and very welcoming. Can't wait to return.
Alan
An amazing 4 night stay, everything you need and more for a truly relaxing break. A beautiful location with very quiet surroundings. Lots of wildlife to see and nice easy walks to meander around. Stargazing from the hot tub was fantastic with no light polution. Alan and Ginny are very welcoming hosts and can't do enough to help if you want it. We w ill definitely be booking again when we can.
Sam
What an incredible place. The farm is stunning, the pod has everything you need and more. We will definitely be back!

We had a lovely short stay here, the pods were beautiful. Great for walks with the dogs but also not too far away from centre if needed. Would definitely stay here again and recommend to our friends and family.
Hayley
We had a fantastic, relaxing break away staying at the Aconbury Woodcock Pod - we had everything we needed, our hosts Ginny and Alan were fantastic and super friendly & welcoming. We had a perfect enclosed, safe area for our dog and loved the hot tub! Would 100% go again and recorded to all our friends already!
Laura
Me and my boyfriend only stayed one night but we loved it. The pod was so beautiful and cosy and had everything that you'd ever need in it. We loved how peaceful it was there and being on a farm has a lovely at one with nature feeling. I couldn't recommend these pods anymore. We have a lovely time at we wish we could have stayed longer.
