Is Haywood Oaks Golf And Country Club Right For You?

Is this hot tub glamping retreat best suited to couples or families? What standout glamping features and private hot tub can you look forward to? And is it a dog-friendly getaway? Discover if this short break is the right for you.

For Families
This property is not suitable for children. Lakeside Pod Plus sleeps only 2 guests in one double bedroom with no additional sleeping arrangements. The design and layout cater specifically to couples wanting a romantic break. The lakeside setting and lack of child-specific facilities make this an adults-only retreat focused on relaxation rather than family entertainment.
Glamping Features
The private hot tub takes centre stage on the outdoor deck overlooking the lake. Floor-to-ceiling windows blur the line between indoor and outdoor living, flooding the space with natural light. The deck provides comfortable outdoor furniture for alfresco dining and drinks. Modern pod construction ensures excellent insulation while maintaining that authentic glamping connection to nature. The waterside position means you wake to peaceful lake views and wildlife watching opportunities right from your bed.
Pet Friendly
Pets are not allowed at Lakeside Pod Plus. The site operates a strict no-pet policy across all accommodation. This ensures guests with allergies can stay comfortably and maintains the pristine condition of the pods. If you're travelling with dogs, you'll need to arrange alternative accommodation. The policy applies to all animals including assistance dogs, so confirm any specific requirements directly with the site before booking.
