Daffodil

We have an amazing stay and a lovely babymoon. The place is so beautiful, peaceful and neat and clean. Very safe as well. Our toddler totally enjoyed running around in the garden. We went to the park and had a little walk in the town. Amazing location and we enjoyed our short family vacation. Thanks.

A Spacious, Peaceful Stay with Family and Dog-Friendly Comforts

We recently stayed in the Daffodil pod and had a very pleasant experience. The pod was clean, well presented, and surprisingly spacious for a family of four, including our Beagle, Leo. The pod overlooks a field with a park, which was ideal for the children to play in. The park was far enough away that the pod still felt private and peaceful. The area around the pod was fully enclosed, which gave us peace of mind knowing our dog could roam freely and safely without the risk of escaping. The pod was well equipped with everything we needed, and there was plenty of space and storage for our belongings. After a day spent hiking, sitting in the hot tub in the evening and gazing up at the stars was a wonderful way to relax. Overall, it was a comfortable and enjoyable stay that suited our family perfectly.

This was our 2nd stay at the flower pods. We had another beautiful stay. The pod was lovely and clean, and the surroundings was beautiful. Our girls loved the new addition of the park. We cannot wait to return again soon x

Wonderful stay!

We had such a lovely stay at Daffodil! The pod was perfect, lovely and warm and had everything we needed. The hot tub was an added bonus and was lovely to relax in after some lovely scenic walks (Elan Valley and the drive through the mountains is a must) family friendly, my son (8) and our pup loved it! Great space around the pod that’s secure and gated so the dog could have a run around. We honestly couldn’t fault anything, thank you so much and we can’t wait to come back ☺️

Lovely relaxing stay

We had a lovely 3 nights in daffodil. Its very spacious and has everything you'd need. The only issue we found was that there was dog hair on everything so our clothes were covered. Apart from that it was the perfect stay and the hottub was the best we've been in!

Relax, refresh amd restore

Having previously stayed at Lily, we already knew we loved the location and that there are amazing views all around so we decided to try Dafodil, mainly because our two dogs are now getting much bigger! Dafodil was as expected - just wonderful! Lots of space with a fairly large secure garden for the dogs. The hot tub is a treat and the cabin is cosy and calming. We wouldn't change anything about it. This was our third visit and as we have very busy lives, this is the perfect place to switch off and relax, with pubs and shops just a short drive away. We also recommend visiting Elan Valley... wow! Stunning views and you can walk for miles! Thank you again, for another perfect stay. We will certainly be back!

Lovely Pod for a weekend away but not very private

It was very easy to find and you have great parking right outside the pod. All the information was very clear from booking to arrival and it was great to just arrive and start our break right away and not have to speak to anyone. It was spotlessly clean with all the amenities you could have wanted for a few days away, they even left snacks which was a lovely touch. We booked at the last minute and got a great deal for 3 nights. We always look to book places with an enclosed garden for our dog and our only feedback for others who may be looking to book, especially those with dogs is that although the garden is enclosed, it is not at all private. Weirdly there are actually 6 different access gates into the Daffodil pod, 3 of them leading into the gardens of the other pods so dogs can get right up close face to face with each other at the gates. Just something to consider if you have a more reactive dog. We felt we could not fully relax and enjoy the garden as the dog at the next pod was coming up to the gate all the time. The grass was also in desperate need of a cut, especially as it was raining all weekend so the mud was really bad. Again nothing can be done about the weather but the grass was too long and looked unkempt. The hot tub was huge and lovely and warm, it was lovely to relax in at night. However again it is not very private and you are exposed to others looking at you when you're in it from all except one side. The hot tubs in the shepherd huts are much more private with screens all around. They have packed a lot of pods and huts onto the space which is great, but you are overlooked. You can also clearly see into the bathroom of the next pod when they have the window open and you're outside. To be fair, it is not advertised as a private pod and it is clear that there are other pods around you from the photos. So this was just an observation of our preferences. We would recommend this pod, but it isn't somewhere we would stay again because of the lack of privacy and the way others can access the through the gates and the low fences for the dogs. Thank you so much for a lovely stay.
