Castlemartin camping pod
Liked: Quiet, few minutes drive to beach, friendly dog
Disliked: Dirty, dusty, Unfinished floor, missing floor boards under the bed, hole 4×4" covered with dirty rug, little holes stack with tissues (maybe left by previous guests, I covered it with duck tape), some sharp screws coming out from the bed, dirty and rusty kettle, dirty and damaged plastic boxes for recycling, unsafe steps, old dirty "armchairs" mouldy dirty shower, no hooks to put towel (I had to put some rubbish bags over the toilet next to shower to put my towel and clothes) some nails coming from the top of the door frame, it is no problem for shorter people but my husband is over 6', no hot water in a sink to wash dishes. We didnt enjoy it, we survived it .... the other

From the manager: there are two floors in the pod. the base and a floating floor over the top of it. it doesnt extend under the bed because i dont sleep or walk under there. Rusty kettle? Its made of plastic??The shower has just been replaced. i appreciate the shower surround may not be to everyones taste. Recycled welsh roofing slates. Hooks. Real deal breaker. It doesnt claim to have hot water for ding dishes. At the end of the day it sounds like you were expecting a 40 to 60 thousand pound pod for £50 a night in August in the national park . Let me know if you find one. i'll stay there myself. The wifi isnt poor it doesnt exist. The pod is exactly what it claims to be. A basic alternative to having to put up a tent. To put things in perspective on the same night for the same money you couldve stayed on the national trust campsite , where you'd have got a pitch for your tent and shared the bathroom with 30 other people
Nice little quirky cabin in quiet area…

Castlemartin camping pod
Liked: Lovely rustic grounds and back to nature vibe
Disliked: Defo not suitable for 5 people. Would suit more for two rather than cramming in 5 with a tiny fridge, two outside chairs leaving it difficult to eat there. Spent all day out due to this however if better equipped and advertised for two people then it would have been lovely and totally off the grid if that’s your thing.

From the manager: I will try to make your £10 per person per night in the national park during a school holiday stretch further. Which part of the actual dimensions given and the 25 photos made you think it was bigger? You went for the cheapest option so it is staggering that you were surprised how far your £50 a night got u.
