One guest left a five-star review: "This pod is amazing with amazing views. So private clean and had all little details that helped like tea coffee sugar robes and they even put milk in the fridge. The hot tub was amazing and the sauna within the pod made it our highlight. I can't tell you how much me and my husband needed this break and it definitely gave us that. I now have pod blues lol so will be definitely booking this pod next year."
The Cabin Tirion is ideal for a romantic escape, but no pets are allowed.
