Mayflower Meadow At Veiko Reviews

Fast and easy booking great communication. The pod itself very clean absolutely perfect getaway. The hosts went above and beyond. 1010
Tracey
A perfect escape. Loved the quirky accommodation, with the windows open its like being outside indoors. It's so quiet you can listen to birdsong, a walk around the pond, and then jump in the hot tub . The outdoor furniture was so comfy too. It's close enough to many seasides for a trip out and an ice cream. Would return for another relaxing holiday, it was wonderful.

The place was great, so peaceful and relaxing! Hot tub was great !
Ashley
Outstanding . . the locationsetting just stunning! So peaceful, only sound was from the birds tweeting. The Iglu was amazing, everything you could possibly need, and very comfortable due to the amazing weather we spent most of our time outdoors. We spent 6days soaking up the surroundings and could have easily stayed another 6 days. Our hosts have created something very special and we feel privileged to have stayed at Mayflower Meadow and undoubtedly will return
Callum
We had a really lovely time at Veiko! It's in the perfect spot where it's quiet, secluded and peaceful, while also being in a reasonable distance of a load of great areas including Beverly and Bridlington. Our hosts responded quickly when required which was great also. Our only real issue was with the amount of light being let in through the main door window, which unfortunately doesn't have blinds, or a curtain blocker of the bed area of the pod which meant a couple of early mornings on the bright days. Shouldn't be a problem for the winter months but if coming in the summer, bring some eye masks! It didn't detract from our enjoyment of the weekend and would definitely come back again thanks for having us!
Brandon
It was unreal.
Calllum
The weather was really bad so couldnt use the hot tub, would have been good if it was sheltered
Charlene
Was beautiful everything you need and wood definitely return x
We LOVED our few days in Veiko, we stayed 5 nights. The cabins are so well decorated and maintained, and very comfortable despite being small. The added bonus of a hot tub makes it such a special place to unwind, relax and enjoy the beautiful surroundings. The hosts are very friendly and welcoming.
Lovely accommodation, everything you need.
What a Fantastic place to Stay, So Peaceful, Truly a getaway from it all Pod, Clean, Tidy, Couldn't ask for better Owners made us feel so Welcome. Nothing to much bother, We were lucky enough to be there when there was a Tractor Run, Wow Great fun. Oh & Not forgetting the Hot Tub, Would definitely recommend it.
Morgan
We absolutely loved our weekend away, was gutted to have to leave. We did try calling 07796 441667 as we had trouble with the hot water from the shower and kitchen sink.This meant Saturday me and my girlfriend had to a cold shower other than that it was a beautiful location, really private and exceptionally cozy. We will be back!
Cant fault at all! A really warm welcome from the owner. Everything was as seen online. Really cosy and relaxing and had everything we would ever need. Clean and modern and the hot tub was a nice touch. We will definitely be back!!

Had a lovley few days stay for my birthday treat, was lovley and clean upon arrival, hot tub was very up and down with temp but managed nicelywould deffo recommend having a mop for the floors easier when there wet from the shower or the hot tuball in all a fab few days
Summer
This was booked for my birthday weekend and what a lovely place it was to stay . The views , privacy , hotub I could go on. However , it also came to my attention that there were a lot of bugs , flys , little black bugs everywhere and dead moths when we arrived which was quite upsetting . Also not to mention but nobody greeted us or said hello or goodbye or how was your stay , I just felt like that wouldve been a nice touch to speak to the people we were staying with.
Shannon
Wasn't greeted by anyone as expected which was a shame, but owner replied to messages quickly. The property was gorgeous and had everything you needed. Will be back for sure.
Georgia
Beautiful accommodation and surroundings. Mayflower Meadow is well kept and exceeded our expectations. The pull trolleys were such a great idea for transporting all of our belongings to and from the car. We chose Veiko to celebrate our 3rd Wedding anniversary and we are so glad we did. The area was peaceful and relaxing, and the hot tub was brilliant we miss it already! We will definitely be back!
Was very disappointed not to be greeted by the host. Hot tub wasnt maintained daily with high chemical levels. Loud music from other pod wasnt very tranquil. Was surprised to learn that we had to change the bedding as guests . Not sure if this a standard procedure especially paying the higher rate prices. Surrounding areas pretty and lovely location.
Callum
Lovely relaxing stay. Hot tub was great, lots to do within a short drive but also nice walks locally. Would definitely recommend
I thought the cabin was lovely, the surrounding areas were beautiful and the people who met us there and gave us a tour were so helpful, friendly and lovely. I found the hot tub to be absolutely perfect and the shower was so clean and easy to use. The bed was also unbelievably comfy and there was so much help finding stuff to do as there was a sheet provided with venuss to visit the nicest places in the vicinity and the best places to eat, in which i would reccomend as berts pizzeria had some of the best pizza i have ever eaten and the pints of peroni werent so bad either
Very comfortable and enjoyable stay. Cant fault anything,the best hot tub we have used, owners extremely pleasant and helpful.Will definitely recommend to family and friends.
Robert
Had a awesome stay location and accommodation was amazing
Patricia
Better late than never, we stayed last September. It was absolutely lovely, and we had a fantastic few days away. The only tiny and it is tiny thing I would say is that Id like a little more clothes storage to be squeezed in somewhere. But only a little niggle we thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and would absolutely recommend.
Had the most relaxing and chilled weekend would highly recommend. The accommodation is very clean and cosy.

Jeremy
We loved our iglus, it was lovely and cosy when the weather wasnt great outside and during the nice evenings it was lovely to spend time in the hot tub. Everything was very clean and well presented. The bed was very comfortable. Thank you so much for our stay.
Really enjoyed our stay. Extremely quiet countryside setting enhanced further with no vehicles allowed to park next to igloos. Very comfortable bed and the hot tub made for a relaxing stay. Nice walks directly from property and the beach a short drive. There is a lovely natural pond near the igloo. Owners have provided seating and picnic bench and we really enjoyed having our breakfast there.
Igloo was great, hosts have thought of everything. Hot tub brilliant and overall a great holiday.
Nathan
What a peaceful stay just what we needed a month before we marry. Had a great time and looked forward to returning after a day exploring. Will also miss the cow and its 3 friends. You have a great set up and would love to return soon.
Chantelle-rose
This is the first time we've done something like this and it did no disappoint! A cosy and lovely place and very clean and looked after. The owners put a lot a thought into making it cosy. The owners were very welcoming and very helpful too. We loved the location and he hot tub. We will definitely be going back.
We had a wonderful stay and cant recommend highly enough. The place looked even better in real life. The owners have thought of everything and they were extremely friendly and welcoming. Cant wait to come back soon!
Absolutely loved our stay here! A much needed weekend away. Would definitely recommend!
We stayed for the weekend. The iglu is absolutely fabulous and the owners have thought of everything to make your fancy glamping stay wonderful. It rained off and on during our stay, but that didn't even matter. There was still plenty of time to enoy the hot tub. Mayflower Meadow is so peaceful and have already reccomended MM to friends. Thank you for a lovely weekend away that we sorely needed!
A piece of Yorkshire heaven! We loved our stay here. 100 private. Peaceful and quiet. Veiko was spotless and everything has been thought out for the guests to experience the most out of their stay. We adored it and have already booked for next year
Paul Michael
Found a little gem here, nice and quiet good to get away from the hustle and bustle of busy life. The hot tub is lovely to lay in and just forget about your troubles, I also like the no TV. I will certainly recommend Mayflower Meadows to anyone that wants to getaway for some R&R
We had an amazing stay. The views were fantastic and the owners were really helpful and friendly. Would highly recommend.
Robert
