Beautiful pod in a beautiful location with perfect hosts and excellent facilities - couldn't ask for better and can't wait until we can organise a return visit. Very relaxing stay.
Hannah
What an amazing holiday! The pod was immaculate and had absolutely everything that we needed. The views from the Swedish hot tub are stunning and despite being in the middle of a row of three pods, our garden felt very private. Nothing was too much trouble for owner, Chris, and we visited many of his recommended days out. We really enjoyed explorin g Lyman Bay, Glen Isla and Kirriemuir - what a beautiful part of the world. Thank you so much for a fantastic stay, we will definitely be back!
Nagaraju
Perfect getaway as we wanted and got to say one of the best holiday we have ever had staying in pods. We loved pods, hot tub and the stuff thats been provided was beyond our expectation. We stayed for one week and if we come back to Scotland, this will be our first choice. My young twin girls never had a single minute of boredom here. Host Chris wa s the best. Friendly and we went to places all he suggested and all were super great! Location, amenities, wifi, cleanliness, everything 5
Oliwia
Wonderful hosts and beautiful spot. Perfect to rewind
Michele
An amazing holiday from start to finish. Chris was a fantastic host, with good local knowledge. He gave us the best directions for walks, Cafes and Restaurants in the area. The hot tub was ready for our arrival, and the facilities for us were perfect. Also within 10 minutes we had seen 2 red squirrels and 2 roe deer.
Kathleen
The cabin was perfect. Beautiful, peaceful location & very welcoming & friendly host who gave us lots of suggestions on what to do near by. Cannot fault it at all, would recommend to everyone.
Kim
Arrived on Saturday and Chris had the hot tub all ready for us when we arrived, he was so welcoming and showed us around the pod and grounds. There was BBQs, firewood and lighters all included with the pod, the appliances were all there too and we just had an amazing time. We watched the stars while in the hot tub on the last night and we also got to see the airlie monument and loads of red squirrels. Chris was very helpful in picking points of interest and the views were just amazing.
Roy
Really wonderful experience, brilliant pods, lovely hosts and the hot tub is an excellent place to enjoy the view of the glen :)

Lodge was warm, clean and in a quiet rural location, but still conveniently close to Kirriemuir. We had a lovely relaxing weekend, and will definitely stay again. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and we enjoyed the cocktail on arrival.

What a fantastic property! We used Acer Maple as a base to snowboard at Glenshee Mountain Range. It was absolutely beautiful, the best weekend away I have had in a long time.
