Perfect will be going back if you love the peace n quiet this is the place just perfect everything was amazing

Absolute gem of a find and only 50 minutes from home. Tucked away, back of beyond. The pod itself was so cosy. Comfy bed and Netflix, what more do you need. The hot tub was great, views lovely and some nice walks. I will definitely be recommending the pod and we will be back.

Charley

Beautiful place and view's. Highly recommend to others. Good price too!

Good quality time

Georgia

Wow what a beautiful place. Me and my partner have been to so many different pods over the years and this one was special. We booked for 2 nights just for somewhere to relax and thats exactly what we got! We stayed in the Corndon pod, it had everything we needed and was so cosy. The views are to die for, I sat out one night watching the stars and then got up early to catch the sunrise, so incredible. The hosts left us milk in the fridge, brownies and prosecco, which were such lovely add ons and we felt so at home! The hot tub was lovely and there's loads of different walks you can do in the area if you wanted to. Will definitely be back in the future!

Matthew

Lovely stay and our dogs loved it. I want to provide some feedback though which I think needs to be reviewed. The bed has seen better days, the base is fine but the mattress was not great and to be honest we had some really bad nights sleep due to the mattress and pillow comfort so we left the night before just to get some sleep! I would absolutely come again, but only when the mattress should has been changed and the pillows need to be a little better too as they have seen better days as they were flat. The pod was clean and all the extra touches were lovely. Hosts were great. I didnt want to disturb the hosts with a mattress query as i am aware that would not be able to be resolved but it is a coil mattress and you can feel each coil when trying to sleep.

Yvonne

What a fabulous few days we had away. This was our first time in a pod and the experience was great.

This was a lovely pod to visit. There was a heatwave the weekend we went, so the hot tub was great to relax in to cool off. All facilities are good and adequate for what you'd need. Only slight negative was the drive to the pod from the main road. It's a very rough surface, and takes it out on anything not a 4x4 I would say. Would go again definitely though

Absolutely lovely property in area of peace and tranquility. Met with owners on daily basis and very attentive to your needs. Would certainly recommend to others and will no doubt return as in area of interest and accessibility to other attractions.

This was an absolutely superb place to stay. Angie went above and beyond for us and her recommendations for places to go and eat were spot on. It was also very quiet and the hot tub was fantastic. We will definitely be back thank you.

Our stay at corndon pod was absolutely perfect. There is plenty of room inside and outside the pod. We have a large and medium size dog and had no issues. We even took our two dogs cages Xl and M and it wasnt a problem in the means of space. Outside the pod was a lovely garden in which our two dogs enjoyed. The hot tub was definitely used daily. The fact you could get onto 500acre of walking space right from the door was a bonus beautiful views all around. Will most definitely be returning to your 4sleeper pod to bring the children. Thank you again for an amazing holiday pod.

We had a lovely stay, the views were amazing and the pod was very clean and tidy. The procecco and home made brownie was also a lovely suprise. I would highly recommend staying here and would be happy to return.

We had a wonderful stay, it was so relaxing and quite. The views were amazing and the owners so lovely. I highly recommend sunrise pods and we will be returning. If you have 4 legged friend staying with you, it's safe for them to run around the grounds of the pod it very safe, our 2

Louise

What a great find this was! Cosy and comfortable for two adults and two dogs. Hot tub was great under the stars. We really enjoyed our stay and will absolutely, be coming back.

A beautiful pod overlooking stunning views. Lovely walks Great and friendly owners

Beautiful location. We really enjoyed are stay here. What a place to spend our first wedding anniversary in a hot tub under the stars. Will definitely be revisiting at some point,and recommending to family and friends.

This was our second time visiting the pods and again it didn't disappoint. We love the quiet surroundings, the coziness of the pod and of course the luxury of the hot tub. An added bonus for us is the secure enclosed garden for our two dogs to roam in while we enjoy the hot tub. Also the walk over the hills at the rear of the pod are lovely. We have booked again as these pods are perfect for some R&R.

Fantastic break at the Corndon Pod. What a beautiful place! Lovely welcome treats on arrival for both us and the dogs were a nice surprise. Helpful and friendly hosts who were happy to answer any questions but also gave total privacy to guests and did not disturb us at all even to do the daily hot tub checks. Scenic and tranquil, the perfect setting for relaxing as well as some fantastic walks followed by a nice soak in the hot tub. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and will certainly be back Im sure. Thank you.

Annemarie

A beautiful and peaceful setting, the enclosed garden space was perfect for our two dachshunds who really didnt want to leave. My husband enjoyed a relaxing daily soak in the hot tub and the pod had everything we needed. It really was a great venue for a splendid break.

Joshua

Great pod with a perfect enclosed garden for our dog. All three of us loved it. Will be back in the future

Millie

Perfect stay, the pod was lovely alongside the extra touches which were really thoughtful when we arrived. The hot tub was amazing and we loved spending time in there taking in the views on an evening whilst the dogs were able to explore the secure garden. Lots of great walks from the door step with great views. We explored some local towns all within 20 mins of the pod. The whole stay was really relaxing and we would highly recommend, we will definitely be back. Thank you to the owners for a lovely stay.

Tracey

Property is very quaint with lots of little touches. Not big enough for larger dogs and you really need the weather in order to enjoy it. Lovely views and hot tub perfect

Breanne

We have just arrived back home after a lovely stay at Corndon Pod. The pod was so much bigger than we thought, plenty of room for 2 of us and 2 large dogs. Very clean and had everything we needed, the hot tub was amazing too. The pod itself is in an amazing idyllic location with beautiful views and lots of lovely walks right from the doorstep. I would highly recommend and we plan on returning again next year.Thank you Angie for a lovely stay and for our arrival treats, they were much appreciated after a long drive!

Was very nice to stay in Corndon Pod we feel very good and relaxing everything was perfect my dogs was happy as well , I was sorry booking just 2 days but next time we will book longer. Thank you very much.

Jackie

Beautiful clean well equipped shower with thoughtful little touches Only thing that let it down was lack of hot water although I do believe it was soon be sorted and they were aware of the problem Every effort was taken to make sure they were the best pods out there and comfort and relaxing were there priority. Would definitely return and recommend 1010

Shanice

Lovely stay between Xmas & new year. Beautiful views, comfy clean and cosy pod. Everything we needed to relax & unwind. Would highly recommend good job guys. P.s our pooch said thank you for her treats was a nice touch.

This a wonderful place to come on holiday. The pods are warm and comfortable, and are perfectly equipped with everything you need for a good holiday. The hillside behind the pods is beautiful and allows you freeopen access to other great hill walks and walking routes.The stone circle and ancient field markings give you a real sense of the history of the area. The hot tub is always full,clean and just the right temperature. An active holiday walking the dogs is easily combined with long comfortable evenings in the tub. Dog owners will love coming here as the walks are excellent and each pod has a large garden for the dogs to run around in. The lack of too much artificial light at night allows for beautiful views of the stars while sitting in the hot tub. The hosts are class act. The attention to detail ,complimentary prosecco,the cleanliness of the pods and the daily attention to the condition of the hot tub and the site in general by the hostowner Angie is something to behold. You will not regret a short stay or a longer stay in spring,summer or even winter,so get booking .For more comfort the same site has a larger property now attached which is delivered and managed with the same attention to detail and comfort as the smaller pods. We generally didn't visit the same place twice prior to discovering this spot,we have now visited 4 times with our dogs. Do not miss out on this little gem in the underrated Shropshire hills...

The property was just lovely, just the right size, warm and cosy. The outdoor space was perfect for the dogs and secure. The location for us was also perfect in the middle of no where with the most beautiful views. The only thing I would say is the signs on the way in are very small so you really have to be on the lookout but other than that we had the most amazing weekend, thank you

Rachael

Absolute relaxation! We loved our stay at the Corndon Pod the area is stunning, the pod was warm and comfortable and the hot tub was perfection! Only comment would be that the shower was slightly difficult and we struggled to get it to warm properly but perhaps we weren't following the instructions well enough but otherwise cannot fault the whole thing and would highly recommend! We will be back

Rebecca

Really enjoyed our time at the pod! So cosy and welcoming and would definitely recommend Only thing I would add is there was no hand soap or anti bac spray etc so we felt the hygiene facilities couldve been a bit better Other than that loved it all

Celebrated my birthday here and had the most relaxing time. Beautiful landscapes, a peaceful pod and a warm, relaxing hot tub. Had everything we could have asked for, we would love to come back. A perfect break from city life. Thank you so much for having us!

Would be good to update advert that the local pub is no longer open. No negatives at all in our stay. Welcoming package of Prosecco, brownies, tea & coffee etc is excellent. Very comfortable and will return.

Lindsey

We stayed for 3 nights in the corndon pod with our two dogs and it did not disappoint. Great location, walks from the door step, beautiful views and the pod itself surprised me how comfortable and snug it was. The garden completely secure for our two dogs. We will definitely come back

Charles

Angie and family should be very proud of what they have accomplished with the pods! All you need for a comfortable, peaceful break with stunning views included! The hot tub was an added bonus. Perfect hosts when we did need to call Angie was literally there in minutes to help us out. The garden was brilliant for our two labs, lots of grass and plenty of room. 10 all round and cant wait to go back, maybe even for 2 weeks next time.

Lindsey

We had a fantastic stay! ! Didn't want to leave. The pod and hot tub were superb. The owner was very helpful and friendly. We will be returning with friends as we can't stop telling everyone how lovely it was. Great views and an excellent, quiet place to chill and unwind from our busy lives.

Really enjoyed staying here came home very relaxed.

Debbie

Absolutely beautiful pod. Location great, very peaceful and views for days. Great secure garden for Luna our Boston Terrier and the best hot tub. We celebrated my husbands birthday while we were here. It most certainly was what we needed after being in Tenby, Wales for 4 days before hand as my husband competed in the long course weekend. So, relaxing in the hot tub was defo top of the list. Thank you so much and we will most certainly tell friends and family about this stunning place.
