Emma August 2024

“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.

- Emma, August 2024

Thankyou so much for booking with us again. We really appreciate your continued support and kind words. Property Owner
Luan August 2024

“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 I’m sure. Thank you.

- Luan, August 2024

Thankyou so so much for your lovely feedback, we look forward to welcoming you back sometime Property Owner
Annemarie July 2024

“A beautiful and peaceful setting, the enclosed garden space was perfect for our two dachshunds who really didn’t 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.

- Annemarie, July 2024

Thankyou so much for your feedback and for choosing to visit us for your break. It is very much appreciated. Property Owner

Millie June 2024

“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.

- Millie, June 2024

Thankyou so so much for your lovely feedback! It's always lovely to hear when people love spending time here and visiting the local area. Look forward to seeing you again soemtime. Property Owner

Breanne April 2024

“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! :)

- Breanne, April 2024

Hi! Thankyou so much for your wonderful feedback! It means the world to know guests have thoroughly enjoyed their stay. Hope to see you again in the future. Kind regards Angie Property Owner
Adina March 2024

Jackie February 2024

“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 10/10

- Jackie, February 2024
Shanice December 2023

“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).

- Shanice, December 2023
Will November 2023

“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 free/open 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 host/owner 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...

- Will, November 2023
Emily November 2023

“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

- Emily, November 2023
Rachael October 2023

“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 :)

- Rachael, October 2023
Rebecca October 2023

“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 could’ve been a bit better Other than that loved it all

- Rebecca, October 2023
Carol October 2023

“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!

- Carol, October 2023
Ben October 2023

“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.

- Ben, October 2023
Lindsey September 2023

“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

- Lindsey, September 2023
Charles September 2023

“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 can’t wait to go back, maybe even for 2 weeks next time.

- Charles, September 2023
Lindsey August 2023

“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.

- Lindsey, August 2023
Mark August 2023

“Really enjoyed staying here came home very relaxed.”

- Mark, August 2023
Debbie July 2023

“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.

- Debbie, July 2023

Julia April 2023

“Five star all the way xxxxx”

- Julia, April 2023
Amanda April 2023

“Everything was absolutely as expected and more - most importantly to us was secure fencing for our little dogs.”

The pod itself was warm, cosy, stylish and had everything we needed. Despite the pods being next to each other they have been designed to be incredibly private and we never saw anyone else. Hot tub was amazing and being able to walk straight out onto the open hills was bliss!!!

- Amanda, April 2023
Liz March 2023

“Lovely stay, amazing location and views, enclosed garden is a big plus for a safe and enjoyable stay for all”

- Liz, March 2023
Chloe January 2023

“The pod was beautifully done, it was very comfortable and warm despite freezing outside temperatures.”

It had everything you needed for a simple dinner or cooked breakfast. The hot tub was a treat, and the enclosed, sizeable garden was perfect for our dog to have sniff about and play. The touches of a bottle of prosecco, milk and television apps such as iplayer already being signed in were hugely appreciated. We absolutely loved it, the view in the morning was spectacular. The only thing we did struggle with was the hot water, we couldn't get the hang of it. A beautiful place to stay run by lovely people.

- Chloe, January 2023
Hollie November 2022

“We have been on many hot tub cabin stays but this one was by far our favourite, a peaceful stay with absolutely amazing views and friendly owners, the added extras were brilliant, we will definitely be back again.”

- Hollie, November 2022
Kate November 2022

- Kirsty, October 2022
Kasey August 2022

“The Corndon Pod was absolutely lovely!”

The views are spectacular and location was very private. The pod was very clean, had everything you needed and more! Hot tub was amazing and was a great place to relax and stargaze at night. The bottle of Prosecco and homemade brownies were a lovely surprise! We couldn’t recommend staying here enough!

- Kasey, August 2022
James August 2022

“The best mini break.”

Only thing wrong is I wish I’d booked to stay longer. Would definitely recommend to friends and family and will 100% be booking to stay again.

- James, August 2022
Alice July 2022

“The pod was absolutely beautiful, such great facilities and actually a lot more space than I was expecting.”

Great feature having the fenced in garden too as we could let the dog roam without worrying where she would be. A lovely homely touch of brownies and Prosecco on arrival too. Would love to stay again!

- Alice, July 2022
Kate July 2022

“The remoteness of the location and backdrop were lovely and the hot tub was bigger than expected and well serviced.”

The bottle of Prosecco and home made brownies were also nice on our arrival. With that said, our bathroom smelt of mould and had an absolutely disgusting smell which then spread to the rest of the pod. I told the owner about this on the second day to which she replied it was the septic tank and that it was only at this pod that that happened because they’d missed something when building it. Whilst that might be the case the owner did nothing to rectify this for the duration of our four night stay and instead with each day the smell got worse and unfortunately our holiday ruined. This was to the point that we tried looking up places to stay elsewhere. If this is a known issue then I would have expected the tank be emptied prior to our arrival and something done to rectify this during our stay. The other issue we experienced was a couple of floor boards inside that were raised enough to continually stub your toe on and a couple of the slabs of the patio that you could physically lift up. This meant anytime you walked on them they’d come up on the other side to hit you in the leg or foot. Again I struggle to see how the owner couldn’t have known about these. I hate to leave a “bad” review for someone’s business, and have never done so before, but if I had known the above when booking I’d have booked elsewhere or certainly another of the pods. I hope at least my review is constructive enough that this can be rectified going forward.

- Kate, July 2022

Firstly thankyou for your feedback on the good and bad points. We apologise for the smell but were unable to get booked in until Friday for the septic tank, I assumed as you hadn't been back in contact with us, or spoken to me about it on my daily hot tub checks, that it had got better during your stay. Of course if you had got back in contact we would have attempted to push to have it done sooner, but we also don't like to disturb people's holidays by having too much activity around site. With regards to the flooring and slabs, although I was aware of the issues (again we've been waiting for contractors to get out to us), I hadn't genuinely realised it was as bad as you have stated. Again, as you hadn't contacted us or mentioned this at all during your stay, we didn't have the opportunity to try and sort this for you. Both of these problems are being sorted this week and have been temporarily fixed for comfort over the weekend as we couldn't get the proper people out to them. As above the smell problem is now also sorted. I have also contacted you via email with an apology and other notes if you could please check those and we can try and sort something out for you. We are very sorry, as we do pride ourselves of making people's stays as lovely as possible and we are easily contactable should people have any issues. Again many thanks and apologies. Property Owner

John Paul May 2022

“The pod was fantastic very well set up and perfect for pets, the pubs and restaurants in local areas were very good and very welcoming to visitors.”

One thing not really worth mentioning I would of liked to see a map of footpaths around the pods but with good internet it’s all on your phone anyway. Will be booking again and recommending it friends and family

- John Paul, May 2022

Thanks so much for your feedback! Apologies about the maps, we are going to try and source some more as we used to have them in the pods but they must have gone astray... Thans for bringing this to our attention. Thanks again. Angie Property Owner
Jennie May 2022

Tanya April 2022

“Wow! An awesome find, the pods are beautifully located, the enclosed garden was perfect for our 2 dogs & very secure, the pod had everything we needed & was lovely and warm for our arrival.”

Great to have the tea/coffee facilities (& goodies) as we forgot ours. Loved exploring the surrounding areas. Have already recommended to friends and family & would definitely return. Thank you

- Tanya, April 2022
Sophie April 2022

“Me and my boyfriend came here for 3 nights and it was such good value for money!”

The pod was bigger then expected and had everything we needed. We had an issue with the tv not playing sound and Angie came round and sorted it for us straight away, she was so friendly and was very apologetic for the problem (wasn’t her fault, sometimes technology can be a bit difficult). We had a few days of sunshine which made the views even better, I’d also recommend going in the spring time as the baby lambs in the field in front of the pods were an added extra; they were adorable! Two places we’d recommend were carding mill valley for a lovely walk and the Nags Head for some great food. I’ve told all my friends and family about this place and we will definitely be back at some point in the next year for another UK break :) (p.s. the hot tub was so relaxing and definitely made the experience)

- Sophie, April 2022
Lissa April 2022

“The only issue I had was I couldn’t get the shower very hot, but you had warned me about that and that you were planning on sorting it.”

Everything else was perfect, and the gardens were perfect for us and the dog Thank you

- Lissa, April 2022
Rebecca March 2022

“Absolutely loved our stay here!”

! The pod has everything you could want and more. So comfortable, clean and the hot tub was fab! Surrounded by stunning walks in the local area and beyond.

- Rebecca, March 2022
Joseph March 2022

“The pictures online really don’t do this place any justice.”

All you need for a hot tub getaway. Will certainly be back in the future!

- Joseph, March 2022
Anthony March 2022

“The pod was pretty much what we expected.”

Located in a beautiful part of Shropshire with hundreds of walks very close by. If your looking for peace and tranquillity, this is the place. No complaints whatsoever the pod was clean and tidy with welcoming gifts (very nice touch) Hot tub was lovely and maintained everyday. Only thing we were slightly disappointed with was the shower, really struggled to get hot water and when we managed to get it , it soon ran cold. Could use some attention. I would rate this short break 9/10. We would return and I would definitely recommend Thanks Mike 14/03/22 till 18/03/22

- Anthony, March 2022

We do apologise for the shower, we are looking into changing them sometime this season. Thankyou so much for your feedback. Look forward to welcoming you back sometime. Angie Property Owner
Sarah March 2022

“One word sums up our cordon pod stay AMAZING The pod itself is fresh clen tidy & fully equipped to a high standard it gives you everything you need for a stay be it dry or raining.”

It just so comfortable. The hot tub perfect size well maintained in the perfect location to just take in the stunning views by day or star's by night. TV with netflix great again if you just want to relax WiFi is incredible to say you are so remote we had better service than at home in a town. The location is peaceful and unspoilt you can walk as much or as little as you want. Within easy drive of many places of interest & local amenities. Do try local produce Meats Cheeses Breads ice creams all so tasty. You host's certainly go the extra mile for the guests you have the reassurance that they are there should you need them but they ensure they are not intrusive when carrying out job's like hot tub maintenance. Always a friendly smile and wave. As soon as you see the space you have with grassed area patio pod & parking you know they want you to enjoy your stay & privacy. There are just 3 pod's in an area that on many glamping sites would have fitted in 6. The fencing & gates again give you privacy and if like us you have dog's with you give them freedom whilst remaining safe and secure. The pre-arrival instructions your hosts send are helpful and informative. The welcome gifts are a real treat. We had a wonderful 3 night stay and will do our best to visit again.

- Sarah, March 2022
Ellen February 2022

“We had a lovely stay at the Cordon Pod.”

The pod was immaculate on arrival and so cosy and lovely and warm. We visited in February so was quite chilly and was surprised how warm the pod was. The arrival gifts of brownies, prosecco and even treats for our dog was a lovely touch. Angie was an amazing host who came to check the hot tub daily and was so friendly and gave tips and advice for the local area. The pods are in an amazing location for walking and for a peaceful stay and very dog friendly. We will 100% be returning and have recommended to lots of friends. x

Lynn October 2021

“From the ease of booking , information prior to and during our trip this was the first glamping trip we have done it won't be the last.”

The directions we received prior to our trip were spot on and we arrived at our pod without any problems. The pod itself was fabulous extremely clean and came with everything we needed to self cater throughout out trip. The hot tub was positioned so you had total privacy and the garden was secure so our dog could roam safely without having to be on a lead. The area is a haven for scenic walking and we could walk for miles . After working solid for 2 years and having 3 foreign holidays cancelled due to covid this was a much needed break . Angie the owner was a great source of local information and always on hand if you needed anything. We will be returning without a doubt.

- Lynn, October 2021
Kate October 2021

Stacey September 2021

“Absolutely stunning location, property was clean and tidy with a a lovely welcome pack and bottle of bubbly (the personal touch means a lot).”

If I had to be fussy I would say the mattress was a little uncomfortable but I suffer with back issues so may be fine for anyone else, it certainly would not stop me coming back!

“The Lodge is perfect!”

It’s lovely and clean and the owner went above and beyond with tea, coffee, sugar, champagne and dog treats! When the electric went out (totally out of anyone’s control) the owner emailed us straight away! Overall the most perfect break!

- Emily, July 2021
Aaron July 2021

“The pod was so much better than we expected.”

Enclosed space was so perfect for our dogs and the veiws were breathtaking. Everything we needed was included (prosecco was a lovely extra touch.) Hottub was perfect and the whole place was spotless.

Emily April 2021

“We absolutely loved the pod and will definitely come back!”

The hot tub was a great thing to have just to sit and enjoy the view. The surroundings were lovely, it was so peaceful and we loved watching the sunrise in a morning, it was beautiful. The pod was clean and had everything you needed. The only 2 points I would say could be improved would be adding a drying rack because there was no where to dry dishes when they had been washed. The second thing was the duvet cover was really bobbly and worn. The pillows were also quite flat and the pillow cases were also bobbly and worn. I wouldn’t mind bringing my own pillows from home if I had known beforehand. The bed sheet, however, was really soft so that was comfy! Overall though we had a really great stay at the pod and it was a fabulous way to celebrate my 30th birthday! I’ve recommended it to friends and family already and we will be booking again as soon as possible!

- Emily, April 2021
Reece October 2020

“We had a lovely holiday at sunrise pods!”

Lovely views, the pod was lovely and clean. The hot tub was an added bonus! Angie kept in contact throughout our stay and we was so happy to be away! Everything was safe and in line with COVID standards. We will be returning! Thank you Angie

“We had a lovely break in Corndon Pod.”

Angie has obviously thought about the little touches in the pod as well as space-saving furniture to make the most of the internal area. The hot tub was lovely and relaxing. Angie was great at testing it each morning without disturbing us. The pods back onto the hills so it was easy to just walk past them then through the gate straight up to the hills- our dog loved it too! The garden is fully enclosed and a very generous size. The fridge does have a freezer compartment (in case you wanted to bring ice cream!). The prosecco was an added bonus which we were not expecting. Overall, we would highly recommend and hope to come back next year.

“Fantastic place had a really great time amazing views hottub was fantastic and the pod was cozy and warm.”

Jane September 2020

“Can't fault this beautiful pod and location.”

Having your own enclosed garden for our dog made us feel able to sit and relax in the hot tub looking over the hills. Angie is brilliant, able to communicate with her at any time - we opened the fridge to find milk and prosecco which was a lovely surprise. Would also recommend The Miners pub for pizza Wednesday's which was a short drive away. Would look through re-visit as a couple or with friends and book two pods. Had a lovely few days, thank you!

“We have just returned from a 5 night break in the Corndon pod in Shropshire where we celebrated our 20th wedding anniversary with our two dogs.”

We had an amazing time.On arrival there was a bottle of Prosecco and milk in the fridge which is a lovely touch. There was loads of different walks to take the dogs just at the back of us. We were able to relax in the hot tub when we wanted without the worry of being disturbed. The hot tub was tested daily by the owner Angie. We were made to feel at home from the start. Lots of communication from the owners and any questions that we had. If you wanted to get a takeaway would need to collect. We had pizza from the pub The Miners (Wednesday) which was about an 8 minute drive. Would defo look at returning in the near future.

“Walks from the door on the Shropshire hills.”

A real get away never felt so relaxed. Hot tub for the evenings after a day of walking. My dog loved it too

- Joanne, March 2020
Martin March 2020

“No the pod was ideal for us as there was only two of us.”

The main reason for choosing this type of stay was because we could bring our dogs and the use of the hot tub.

- Martin, March 2020
Katie February 2020

“Another fantastic stay at Corndon Pod, after really enjoying our first visit last year we couldn’t wait to come back and relax again.”

The pod is ideal for us and our dog - cosy, clean and well equipped pod, walks from the door and the hot tub for us in the evening. Another great welcome pack - flowers, a heart shaped cake, Prosecco and some hot chocolate with marshmallows for valentines weekend! Angie is great and really takes on board any feedback - not that we had much constructive feedback, we loved it! Looking forward to another visit soon (hopefully with better weather!)

- Katie, February 2020
Hayley February 2020

“Everything was wonderful at the pod, owners very helpful with any queries or issues - they also contacted us before coming to check the hot tub.”

Pod was very clean and private, perfect for the short break away we wanted! Will be returning.

“Sunshine Pods It is a great base for exploring surrounding areas it is lovely, quiet and relaxing.”

You can chose to explore or do nothing. There is plenty of outside space and the hot tub was a great plus for us. Would be fabulous during summer months where you get plenty of light and can sit outside and enjoy the views.

- Carolyn, January 2020
Emma January 2020

“We had a lovely few days away.”

The view from the pods was incredible. There is plenty to do in the local area. The pod had everything we needed and more. I particularly loved the gated area around the pod. It meant we could relax knowing the dog was safe each time he went outside. Would highly recommend!!

“Just returned from a 2 night break at the Corndon Pods.”

Lovely, clean and welcoming. Nothing negative to say at all. We were very impressed with the accommodation and the and hospitality from Angie. The welcome pack was a lovely surprise.

Katie November 2019

“We have returned this week from a fantastic break at Corndon Pod.”

The pod was finished to a high standard and was much more spacious than expecting for the two of us and a dog. The welcome pack was lovely and Angie and Stuart couldn’t have been more helpful for anything we needed. The garden was secure and ideal for the dog and the hot tub was excellent for us. The pods are in a lovely private spot which we loved and we managed to get out for plenty of nearby walks! Couldn’t recommend enough and we’re hoping to be back soon!

Take a break from a fast-paced life into the country with your loved ones and make these cute and compact pods your temporary homes, having one pod for each couple, you can come together to spend the days roaming the hills, and then retreat to your own space when night falls. Each pod has a nearly identical layout accessed via a fairy-style curved door, including a sitting area with a Smart TV, a modest kitchen space with all the essential appliances along with an intimate dining area, along with excellent WiFi so you can stay connected. To the rear of the pod is the snug double bed tucked in the corner, and a separate shower room to freshen up in.
