The Piglet Pod Reviews

Amelia

Our stay was great, we had everything we needed and it was peaceful and relaxing. Just what we wanted. One small improvement would be to have a sofa in the Piglet pod, there are chairs but we would have loved to have a comfy sofa. On the whole, we loved the Piglet pod!

Rebecca

Omg this pod is supper nice, the owner was nice to us also, although we checked in earlier and she did her best to clean the room for us. The environment is so peaceful. I will love to come next time .

Colette

Lovely pod, peace, quiet and completely private. The pod is equipped with everything you need. The hot tub is great, with amazing views. If youre looking for a peaceful break this is your perfect place.

Im not a person for reviews, but this place deserves people knowing how great it is. You wont be disappointed.

Superb! Had a lovely week here. The pod is well equipped in a lovely location. The hosts are available but keep themselves private as do the alpacas

My husband and have never stayed in a pod before and we are so glad we chose the piglet pod as our first . It was spacious, spotless and luxurious. The setting was so tranquil and picturesque. The bed and bedding was perfect better than ours, the teacoffee table was filled with plenty of choice , the bathroom was styled very classy , kitchen had everything you would need recycling bins for all rubbish. The hot tub was such a treat with views of the countryside and alpacas, considering it s on a working farm we heard nothing just bird song . Thankyou diolch for a treat that we will not forget for a long time .

Angela

Second time staying in the piglet pod. Its just everything you need for a perfect getaway. The pod itself is spacious, very clean & well equipped with all the basics. Hot tub is an amazing bonus with these beautiful sea views and watching the wildlife.Owners greeted us on arrival , if there was anything we needed to let them know , which was really nice. It is on a working farm , and yes they were hay baling in the field in front, but this wasnt a negative at all. Lovely to watch the owners little boy getting involved with his family. The village of New Quay is very close and definitely worth a visit. Seeing dolphins on a boat trip and in the bay made it a very special trip. Third trip to Pantcefn also stayed in the beautiful tri pod Will definitely be back to try the Boat house next.

We recently had our Honeymoon at the piglet pod, picturesque views, quiet and a luxurious stay! Couldn't of asked for a more relaxing stay! Thank you

Absolutely loved the pod! Stayed for our mini moon was a great luxury glamping experience! Honestly have nothing bad to say about the place, Id highly recommend staying there!

Ellena

Super easy to find. Absolutely gorgeous views. The pictures dont do the property justice. Took my partner for his 30th birthday and he loved it. Very calming environment if youre looking for a breakaway. Bed is very cosy and had more than enough room for the both of us. Hot tub facilities were very easy to use and comfortable we were in there for hours watching the evening pass by. Would 100 recommend the piglet pod, and would definitely return again.

Bethan

We had a lovely stay at the piglet pod. Such a peaceful setting and beautiful view of sunset. The bed was really comfortable and great black out blind so we slept really well. One suggestion for improvement would be that some basic essentials like fresh milk and butter be provided. There was some milk capsules but given we were staying for a few nights some fresh milk would have been nice, and some shower gel in the shower.

Excellent property with privacy and peace and quiet. Spotless and well furnished and very spacious. Would definitely recommend and will be returning.

The property was lovely. Its perfect for 2 people, it was comfortable and the amenities were great, the coffee machine was a very nice touch. The only niggle was when we went to use the hot tub it was set at 25 degrees and it took hours to get up to temperature, after 4 hours we got in at 34 degrees but it just wasnt warm enough and it was really late in the day by then so that was disappointing. It was also full of dead bugs and flys, the clips were all broken. However, I would definitely recommend the Piglet pod and I would visit again.

Was a lovely place to stay, beautiful and tranquil. Perfect hot tub and loved the inside space. Lovely views to wake up to. Wonderful addition by having an air con fan to help keep cool during the summer when we went. Would recommend 100

Sian Elizabeth

Me and my partner had a fantastic time at the Piglet Pod, an absolutely amazing place with stunning views. The pod itself was so comfortable with all you could possibly need, the way it was finished added that extra special touch. We will definitely look to return had a great time.

Gillian

If there is a Heaven on Earth then it surely must be the Piglet Pod . The location is superb offering stunning views of Cardigan Bay , grazing alpacas all within a beautiful farm environment. The pod is extremely well equipped with all anyone could posdibly need and the king size bed is the most comfortable we have ever slept in ! The icing on the cake is the hot tub which is simple to operate and provides hours of excellent relaxation. Upon arrival we were warmly greeted by the owner who asked us to contact him we encountered any problems or issues and his wife offered us the same support a few days later. In conclusion we thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Piglet Pod and will definitely visit again.

Lovely stay, quiet and comfy, friendly Alpacas, lots of bird song. Found lots of things to do close by. Will think about coming back. From Marcy and Pete.

My partner and I stayed In the pod, it was lovely, it was clean and comfortable. We stayed for 4 nights so not having a big kitchen or a table to eat at was a little difficult, but apart from that I would highly recommend, My partner and I had an amazing time and are thinking about going back.

Stunning place to stay, we loved it and will definitely be back.

Stephen

7 days of peace and quiet! !! Nothing to fault pod was perfect. Perfect for a weekend, we had for week so I suppose lacked storage for that but we got round this.

Was really really nice highly recommended for a relaxing weekend away but also ... Was really really nice highly recommended for a relaxing weekend away but also wasnt as many coffee pods as it showed on the pictures

Amazing place to stay I cannot fault the place as a whole. Only improvement I would recommend is having the property warm on arrival as it took a whole evening for the property to reach a good temperature to be comfortable in.

A really great break, beautiful surroundings and a really lovely place to stay. Loved the Piglet Pod, was done so well and had a lovely feel to it like a little boutique hotel room! Couple of tiny things to improve the experience would be a few more hooks or shelves in the bathroom, another shelf in the kitchen and it would be good to have a recycling bin as we weren't sure where to put the papercardplastic recycling. Other than that it was superb!

Darlene

A lovely get away, was worried about not much to do when we got there but there ... A lovely get away, was worried about not much to do when we got there but there was quite a bit that just didnt show up on maps and a great nissa local to get little bits, was really relaxing and just what we needed for a romantic get away, would reccomend

Dominic-james

Stayed in the piglet pod for 4 days and was very peaceful and relaxing. The pod itself was really clean and really cosy. Bumped into the owners a few times when leaving the premises and they were really polite and professional. If anyone is thinking to book for a little getaway I would 100 recommend it.

We had the loveliest weekend ever! We were nicely welcomed on arrival, everything about the pod was perfect, will definitely be back in the future! Couldnt recommend it more, cant wait to be back

We had the best time! The Pod was everything we'd hoped for. Hadn't quite realised it was as close to the house but that really wasn't an issue. Nor had we realised there was another pod nearby We were glad it wasn't occupied otherwise it wouldn't have felt so private.

The Piglet Pod was absolutely beautiful and so was the farm it is situated on. The owner came to greet us on arrival and was extremely friendly, the area is beautiful and great to explore. I would highly recommend and would love to revisit in the future!

Such a lovely place! Spotless, excellent facilities. The owner was great, we messaged to say the small heater didnt appear to be working and he was at the pod with a brand new heater within 5 minutes. Honestly cant fault our experience what so ever would definitely return!

Jessica

We throughly enjoyed our weekend stay. It was so relaxing peaceful and just what we needed after an eventful year. There were no issues and places to visit were very close by. Thank you! We will be coming again!

Hannah

Wonderful! Piglet pod is stunning! Such an amazing stay! Cant wait to book again

Fantastic Pod! Facilities are very impressive with a full functioning kitchen, nice bathroomshower and a livingsleeping area with T.V. Coffee machine, air con and a big comfy bed. Outside is a hot tub, with stunning views and a short gravel path to the parking area. Everything inside and out is of a very high standard and has all you need for a relaxing break.

Absolutely loved our stay at the Piglet Pod. Perfection from start to finish. Directions to the place were spot on and loved the fact that there weren't a million do's and dont's to follow. The place was cosy and comfortable. Very private with beautiful views to waken up to. Facilities were satisfactory but we ate out most of the time. Even though the farmhouse was next door we didn't see anyone the whole time we were there but they were close enough if we had any problems. Sitting in the hot tub at night watching the stars with a glass of prosecco was heaven even though it was pouring down at times Only problem I could think of was it could have done with a couple of plastic prosecco flutes as there were only two wine glasses in the pod. There are plenty of fabulous villages and places to visit in the area and plenty of walks to do just not very well signposted. Fish and chips at the Lime Crab in New Quay is a must! Best ever tasted. All in all we would recommend The Piglet Pod for a quiet peaceful get away. Book now!

Sioned

The most enjoyable holiday yet! The view is astonishing with literally everything you can think you might need while youre there, they have it. Its a lovely venue with a lovely atmosphere. Lovely and quiet with a lovely surrounding. Will definitely be going back!!!

Sophie

Everything was just incredible, when welcomed it felt like home. Very much needed break away from life and to finally relax and get some much needed sleep! Also never seen the sky so full of stars, it was surreal

Eleanor

Me and my partner stayed for 3 nights at the Piglet Pod to celebrate his 40th birthday. We had the most fantastic stay and cannot recommend this place highly enough. The accommodation was clean and had everything we needed. The location is great for visiting nearby New Quay, Aberaeron and Aberystwyth which we travelled to by 40 min bus just 20 min walk from farm to the stop.

Absolutely stunning would absolutely recommend it to anyone. Had a great chilled time enjoyed the hot tub. Can't praise it enough.
