The King's Head

Positiv: it had a heater in the room

Negativ: i booked a camping pod and we were given the railway carriage. In the description it said: Please bring your own bed linen, towels, duvets, pillows and cooking equipment. I brought all that. It did not say mat. I have slept in a camping pod in Scotland before and it had a wooden structure for sleeping on. That's why i presumed it is the same here. No, it is just a wooden floor. Me + my husband had to sleep on the wooden floor in our sleeping bags. The guy who gave us the key only said: As described. Not true ... it does not say bring mat. I asked if he had anything to help us to sleep on. No + went off. Very unhelpful, cold man. Worst night ever. For 40 pounds a barren floor! It is a Rip-off... Glad the pub was closed and quiet. 3 pods for each 2 people, the railway carriage for 4 people ... All in a very tiny space. 1 toilet with no mirror + cold water, 1 shower. I don't want to image how awful when all the beds are take ... No way I can recommend this place. could not sleep, pain everywhere, my poor bones.

Vom Platzbetreiber: For the first time in eleven years we’ve received a very low scoring review. To be summarise in our response I feel a comment is necessary. 1. A pod was booked but explaining to our guest that the pods had an electrical fault we couldn’t allow them to use them hence, offering them the railway carriage. 2. We have always promoted our pods and carriage as the lower end of the glamping scale, it’s got everything that a tent doesn’t have ie. light, power and heating as well as having the benefit of not having to set up the tent. 3. Bring your own sleeping equipment as we don’t provide anything, it’s simple surely, no one else has ever complained hence our overall review rate sitting nicely at 9.1. 4. We don’t allow cooking on site as there are options within the town for people to enjoy, again it states it on the site rules within each unit. 5. It’s basic as outlined in the description, most people read it before booking without any issue, if people want more comfort they book elsewhere. Be aware of customers like this, they expect the world for as little as possible it would seem.

Positiv: Pub staff were super helpful and friendly after some initial confusion about the booking and even offered us a free pint each to compensate. No doubt the pods are basic but everything was spotlessly clean and well maintained. A great base for our weekend cycling trip and handy for the quirky attractions of Bishops Castle.

Negativ: Nothing.

Positiv: Good quality pod nice shower and toilet. Needed a little checking on the shower light wasn’t working I kept meaning to contact the owners but I was on a course and very busy. I am sure they would have sorted it out. A mirror in the bathroom would be nice. Overall nice clean place right in the centre of Bishop Castle. Pub was very busy if you wanted a quiet place it could be challenging. But great central location kind helpful staff. Much appreciated

Positiv: *Great location - right in the town and next to a pub! *Snug sized "pods" (aka posh sheds!), but enough room for a double air bed and some minimal luggage (great for a short stay). *The pods had electric plugs and heating (not that we used either because we weren't expecting such luxury!) *Lights inside and outside the pod made life much easier! *Clean and secure toilets and shower room. *Attractive little enclosure where the pods are. *Space for camp chairs.

Negativ: *It would have been nice to have some soap and paper towels in the toilets. *A mirror in the toilets would have been very useful. *A bin in the toilet would also have been good, especially in the female cubicle for hygiene/sanitary purposes. *The pub closed at 10:30pm on the Saturday, as did all the pubs in the town. It would have been nice to be able to take a beer back with us to our pods (like you normally can with other pubs/hotels when you're an overnight guest), but only if licensing allowed this, of course.

Positiv: Great location in centre of town.

Negativ: A little mirror in the toilet and possibly a bench outside the pods would have made the site 5 stars
