Travis
Lovely owners, very clean and perfect area for a little get away, would 100 go again
Just returned from a 4 night stay we absolutely loved every minute. The Pod its self was clean, tidy and well equipped with everything we needed. There were 4 of us but could have easily had the full 6 people and still been comfortable. The hot tub was brilliant and wood and fire lighters supplied, a firm favourite with my children especially as we had amazing weather for our stay. Plenty of outdoor seating and a bbq. Lovely enclosed grassed area for children to play. I must also say how absolutely lovely the owners Nigel and Dawn. The hot tub had been lit for us prior to arrival and we were met to show us where to go. We were even given a disposable bbq to get us started. Truly lovely hosts, thank you for a lovely stay. We are already planning a return trip with friends
Natasha
The views were amazing and the lake to walk around and feed the ducks was lovely, however a few things needed there was no frying pan, needed cleaning as spider webs all over the walls, the hottub needs a wind breaker at the back as the open field makes the wind cut through you like a knife which is enough to put you off getting in it in the winter months which is a shame really. Overall a really nice lodge & farm it just needs a little TLC
Absolutely beautiful stay! definitely recommend and will be returning. Nigel the owner was very helpful whenever needed any help with absolutely anything.
Alexander
Really enjoyed our time there. The owner was very friendly and helpful and the location was lovely.
We absolutely loved our stay. Nigel was lovely and very helpful. It was lovely to wake up every morning to the sounds of sheep, geese and swans. Although the garden area is not enclosed our huskie learned very quickly her boundaries of where she could go and loved her daily walks around the lakes. My own personal niggle was that there was no frying pan so I went a bought one and I think maybe an airfryer may be a good addition as I struggled with the combo microwave. But this didnt ruin our stay at all. I would 100 go back. It was so lovely being away from people and having the divine views everyday and the hot tub was lush too. From what we saw it gets emptied and refilled between guests staying.
Michael C
A lovely place with great views and very peaceful. Very nice host Nigel is always on hand if you need anything, overall we had a nice break and relaxed in the hot tub.
Nicolet
A Peaceful Getaway in a Stunning Location We had a truly wonderful stay at this beautiful holiday cottage. The property itself is charming and wellmaintained, with everything you need for a relaxing break. The cabin is cozy and inviting, and the hot tub was a real treatperfect for unwinding while soaking in the peaceful surroundings. The area is absolutely amazingquiet, scenic, and ideal for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle. It felt like a true retreat. All the facilities were in great working order, and we appreciated the thoughtful touches throughout the property. The only suggestion wed make is to consider replacing the mattresses, as they werent quite as comfortable as the rest of the experience. Overall, a fantastic stay and wed definitely recommend it to others looking for a tranquil getaway!
Melanie
We spent a week on this little glamping pod as a family of 5. We loved the location which is set on a salad farm and the beautiful views. The owner was very helpful and we had a great trips out including Cadbury World and Warwick castle. The pod was spotlessly clean when we arrived, the kitchen was well equipped, shower was powerful, beds comfortable enough. Lots of wood provided for the hot tub. Only a few suggestions only 2 towels provided at the start. We asked for more so we had 1 each and had brought extra ourselves but would have been better to have had 1 each when we arrived. Also there were no liners provided for the small pedestal bins, we were given huge black sacks when we requested bags but were too big for the bins so ended up with a huge rubbish bag hanging about in the pod. Also hr curtains in the lounge could do with a black out lining on them. Other than that it was perfect and we wish the owner all the best.
Catherine
This place is absolutely gorgeous such a quiet relaxing get away we are definitely booking up again
We had a fantastic few days at Tamina. The wood fired hot tub was amazing to be in in February and the views are beautiful over countryside and a lake. We had a wonderful time away as two adults and four children and would highly recommend it.
From start to finish it was absolutely perfect, the beds where so comfortable and everything was absolutely perfect. Thank you so much for the best way to close 2024 in. And definitely see you again.
Joella
Really enjoyed our stay at the Tamina! Lovely mood setting lights, gorgeous hot tub, peaceful location, stunning country walks and a very comfortable bed! My daughter thoroughly enjoyed her birthday weekend here and we all had a great stay.
Jarmila
Me and my friends had a wonderful time. Absolutely stunning views and walks, visiting Witley court and church was magical. Nigel was great host, explained to us everything we needed to know and we had fantastic time. Hot tub was amazing and well used especially after long walk.
Ewelina Anna
Owner has been very nice, polite and helpful. It's a very quaite and piceful place.
Excellent stay we will return
Louise
We booked a weekend here as a small group of friends, the space and the Lodge is lovely, the views are fantastic. The Lodge was clean and very well presented, the mood lighting and speakers were a nice touch. Unfortunately we found that when we wanted to use the bbq it was filthy, looked like it hadnt been cleaned for weeks and was out of gas, there was also nothing to clean it with so we couldn't use it, the heater outside was out of gas, we were only supplied with 2 towels for 5 of us and only 1 single roll of toilet paper. This made our stay more stressful than we were hoping, when we called about another issue we were told they don't work Saturdays so this left us feeling like we couldn't ask for help for these things The key we had for the front door snapped in the lock and we were accused of applying force which wasn't the case Other than those few things we really enjoyed our stay here
Gorgeous location, beautiful pods. Owner was lovely, nothing was too much trouble. Could have stayed longer.
Richard
Highly recommend, too many dog friendly places allow dogs to roam freely which is frankly botherson! As an avid fan of restraining my dog 24 hours a day I was pleased to finally find a location that aligns with my way of thinking. If you're a fan of Escape Rooms, you get to experience the reverse by using clues to find your way IN to the camp site! It really gave our trip a kick start and only took 30 minutes! Quick but challenging fun. The level of care and service received was above and beyond, I was in the area of the Worcester BBQ Tong and Utensil Convention WBBQTUC for any grillheads out there so i was overjoyed to find that all BBQ utensils had been removed, allowing me to take my collection for a test drive! Not surprising when you find that the host is clearly someone who knows about BBQing, evident by heavily seasoned grills left on the BBQ. Impressive as it must have taken years to build up the level of burnt on food. Even my partners Umbrellaphobia fear of umbrellasparasols that can functionally open was catered for. Very progressive and accommodating.
Charlotte
We absolutely loved our time at Tamina. . it was super clean, had everything we needed including teacoffeeshower gel etc, the hot tub was amazing and so easy to use, the views were breathtaking and really should be showed off in photos even more and the owner was so lovely and helpful! Was better than we expected, highly recommend
Debbie
What a beautiful place to stay the views were amazing. The pod was cosy and had everything you need. Nigel was very welcoming and accommodating. The hot tub was fantastic. We will definitely return.
We had a short stay at the tamina at it was wonderful. The pod it's self was clean on arrival, hot tub getting warm already. Nigel the owner was really helpful. The hot tub was amazing, once we knew how to warm it up it was really easy to maintain, amazing views sitting in the hot tub seeing over to the lakes too. A very much needed peaceful break. Thank you and we look forward to staying again
Absolutely fantastic location. Stunning views and beautiful walks. Nigel the host was incredibly friendly, helpful and welcoming. The hot tub was great. Nigel got it up to temp for us on the first evening which was really kind and we used it lots during our stay. From reading previous reviews, we took additional towels, a bath mat and an old towel to put on the floor by the front door. We also took our air fryer. All highly recommended if you visit. The only slightly disappointing element was the cleanliness. The bathroom was quite dirty, bedsheets on the main bed gritty, and windows grubby. However we would definitely come again. Would be great to hire both pods with friends. Lots of great places to visit nearby. We loved Bewdley!
Jonathon
Nigel was a genuine and lovely person nothing was a problem everything you could need was provided! Was very informative and helpful when we arrived gave us a quick run down on how to operate the hot tub, wood provided fire lighters provided also The location is wonderful the view is lovely sitting in the hot tub at night glazing up at the stars at night and the beautiful ponds in the day light complete with Canadian geese and swans! Would recommend 100
Claire
Beautiful glamping pod in the countryside! Lovely owner Nigel he is so helpful and reassuring! Beautiful hot tub with LED lights inside plus in the pod too! Lots of restaurants to go locally, also Witley Court and Gardens English Heritage is right on your doorstep!
Lovely place to stay, the man who owned the log cabins was lovely, he showed us where everything was, how to use the facilities and even had free wood and fire lighters for the hot tub. Would definitely recommend and would definitely stay again!
Barbara
We had a great stay. There were 6 of us, x3 children, x3 adults. The logistics of sleeping went fine as there was a fold out bed in the living room which was also a sofa. The main attraction for the children was the hot tub which was amazing, I only went in once. In the summertime you can also use the BBQ which was also a nice touch even though we never used it. The kitchen facilities were basic and there wasnt an oven, only a microwave but it was called a microwave oven so maybe we never used it to its advantage? We bought out slow cooker and air fryer anyway so we were good. There was some LED lighting which set the mood and also, Bluetooth speakers installed into the ceiling which was really cool. Things I think would make the pod better A rug by the entrance because wed take out shoes off first as they picked up a lot of mud and we never wanted that in the pod. A mat in the bathroom which would stop water going all over the floor which happened. A potato masher although if youre old school you can just use a fork like we did. Otherwise a great stay. Id come back. Oh and the host was nice too. Thanks Nigel.
We had a lovely stay! Beautiful scenery surrounding the property, pod was a good size much bigger than we had expected, hot tub was warm and ready for use on arrival, very quick to warm up the following days too, nice seating area outside with patio heater which made it so we could sit outside late October early November, all beds were very comfortable to sleep in, good sized kitchen area to prep and make meals and good sized bathroom. Overall the property was really good, we are a family of 6 and for us it was a perfect size. The host, Nigel met us on arrival and showed us to the pod, he showed us how to use the hot tub and around the pod. He visited us the next day to make sure everything was okay and re did the hot tub for us. He was very welcoming, helpful and keen to ensure we had the best stay. We visited Habberley Trail which was a really good family day out, 25 mins drive. Would definitely recommend that to anyone staying with children! Worcester city centre 20 mins drive, good for charity shopping! & We ate out at The Holt Fleet, family friendly, quiet and beautiful food. 5 mins drive. Really good property and location, we will definitely be returning in the future!
Amazing cabin in a great little spot, very peaceful and the dark skies and stargazing was a bonus. Hot tub was great once we got it warm enough. Needed to buy more kindling and firelighters and the logs available were not quite dry enough, but we managed and it was so nice to use on the chilly evenings. A doormat inside the doors to the cabin would have helped to keep the floor clean. The shower leaked all over the bathroom floor but we managed this and have already let the owners know, but this wouldnt stop us from booking again as we loved it. Only other suggestions would be to have some blanketsextra pillows available, and to be able to park the car a little closer to the cabin itself, but we will definitely visit again.
Beautiful property and really lovely host. Thank you for such a great stay
Exactly as it was advertised, the owner was welcoming and gave brief walk through which was on point. . also provided wood for the hot tub and a few bits also left in the kitchen was a huge bonus. Nice quiet area, lovely views and plenty of places to visit within 30mins. Both of us very much enjoyed our stay, relaxed and refreshed
A fantastic holiday beautiful setting
We spent two nights at Tamina and it was everything we expected and hoped for. The views are absolutely stunning! The setting is lovely and feels very private. We walked to Witley Court which was nice and easy to do with the kids. The pod is very comfortable. Overall we had a great stay!
We had a great stay! Nigel the owner was a lovely pleasant chap who met us and showed us to the property and checked in that everything was OK. The pod was clean and comfy. The hot tub was a big hit and a lovely way to relax after a day of walking and exploring. Highly recommend Witley Court as a visit which is just round the corner.
Giedre
It seemed fine. We have been kicked out due to an error we were hoping for some help but owner was not up for it. No humanity. 5hrs drive,hungry, tired kids, autistic daughter devastated when had to leave pretty much right after. Owner's moaning about as not leaving as were cooking some hot food for the kids in the airfryer which took 25 mins. HUGE ADVICE read all the rules ect to make sure you don't end up like us as you won't get any help or money back.
