    Ideal space for a long weekend for a couple heading to Zipworld Tower.

    Would recommend keeping the plug in the bathroom sink closed as twice we had a large spider come out of the plug... that's glamping for you! Would've preferred bath sheets rather than standard bath towels as well as they are quite small. Also could do with having some tongs for when cooking as utensils are limited.

    Perfect location to go to Zipworld Tower and hikes nearby. We stayed in pod 3 which was very cosy, but still spacious. Pen Pych waterfall is not far away and is a nice walk. Bed was comfy. Ideal space for a long weekend for a couple!

    Would happily stay again

    There are steps (about 20) to the property - possibly an issue if mobility is limited No storage space for clothes - if you are happy to live out of your suitcase/rucksack/overnight bag then there is plenty of stowage space under the bed. Smart TV occasionally lost wi-fi signal. Box of wood, firelighters and matches available for £5 The views from the pod are 'industrial' - not unsurprising for a former coal mining area.

    The pod felt spacious and there were two comfortable armchairs to relax in. The on-suite bathroom was surprisingly roomy and the small kitchenette was adequate (microwave, toaster, plug-in hob, sink though no drainer) for short stays. Wi-Fi speeds were OK (5 Mbps) for general use. Plenty of hot water and the central heating kept everything cosy. Decent sized smart TV. Prosecco and Welsh Cakes a nice touch. If the weather had been warmer and drier, we would have happily sat out on the porch in the evening with a log fire. The views from the pod are 'industrial' - not unsurprising for a former coal mining area.

    Easy to find but some signs off the road leading up to the car park to confirm you're in the right place would be welcomed. Other than that, it was great.

    Generous welcome hamper on arrival. The pod was cosy and well equipped and had a fab view. Ideal for a night or two away.

    When booking, im pretty certaim it said no pets which I liked, on arrival and reading the information they provide the pod we were staying in is the only pod they allow dogs to stay in and which I didnt like as dog hair irritates me. Also, No where to hang coats especially when they're wet

    Very cute little pod, great location.

    Absolute DREAM!!!

    Not much, and very picky, but I didn't like that the neighboring cabin people would walk directly in front of ours as a short cut. It made it feel less secluded and private. But again, that is down to who was staying there and not the place.

    Waking up to that view was insane!! Absolutely loved every moment of staying there, just wish I could have stayed for longer than a night. Perfect location, very quite and peaceful, provided with all the necessities. Cannot describe how dreamy it was to be there. Never wanted to leave!

    the bed was quite uncomfortable. the pillows were too high and the springs had burst. that was the singular only thing that could have been improved though. not a single other fault.

    the view is gorgeous, the room was so cosy and beautiful, they thought of EVERYTHING. it had hot running water immediately, the bed was in the corner and all cosy and cute, very clean, little welcome bottle of wine! honestly cant fault it. self check in was seamless. honestly the perfect get away for a couple.

    1) The mattress is just awful. We stayed for 2days and went around hiking, caving, basically touring the area and the last thing our knackered bodies want coming back to the cabin is a horrible mattress. Other guests have raised this but the property doesn’t seem to act on it yet. We stayed in Pod 3, by the way. 2) There were teenagers blasting loud music with their speakers on our second night stay, disturbing the ‘peace’ we’ve been craving for. There was no gate to the property so people are free to come in. They were there for only 10-15mins though so we didn’t bother reporting it. 3) The path leading to the waterfall is a bit overgrown. Most of it are very narrow that I nearly fell. I’m not sure if it’s part of the property but some warnings and signages leading to the waterfall would be great help.

    1) The scenery is just magnificent. The location is near ZipWorld, Brecon Beacons and Show Caves so it’s very accessible. 2) Most kitchen utensils were present. We have a small fridge, toaster, single electric hob, kettle and microwave. We also have a pot, pan, cutleries, etc. It was well-thought. I was able to cook breakfast with these.

    Lovely apart from that bed
    • Leisure trip
    • Solo traveller
    • One-Bedroom Chalet
    • Stayed 7 nights

    The bed, (Pod 1) which wins first prize for the worst bed I've ever slept on. It was ancient, had no padding, all you could feel were uneven springs. I think it would have defeated a hardened fakir. I only survived it because I took a self inflating camping mat along with me. A lack of storage/somewhere to hang things up/no bathroom shelf to place toiletries on. Access to the pod - I hadn't realised that the pods were reached by a flight of steps and crossing large cobbles, but if you are able bodied this wouldn't be a problem. The alternative is to drive up the slope to the pods but there isn't much space to turn your vehicle round and it gets very muddy.

    The location in a disused colliery which is being developed into a farm. Glorious mountain views, peaceful, handy for local facilities. Many beautiful places nearby to picnic and walk, and several towns. Local buses and trains nearby (but at the time of my stay the rail line was being worked on so no trains available which was disappointing as it created a lot of unexpected extra driving). The pod was clean, comfortable, compact and cosy, plenty of hot water and had enough basic equipment to prepare meals. The developing individual hedged lawns to the front of each pod.
