Bumblebee Glamping Pod Reviews

On the day we arrived we was greeted by the owners which was lovely, made us feel very welcome, only by staying first night my wife and me both said wow lets re book and come back here, we stayed from Tuesday 18th march 25 and left on 23rd but it feel like weve been there much longer. To anyone reading this we would highly recommend here if youre looking for pure quietness and enjoyment in the middle of nowhere very easy and accessible to get to the local village Pickering, Scarborough, goatland where they filmed heartbeat and Harry Potter this is the place for you. It was the first time we ever stayed in a glamming pod but wont be our least as we are back in June
Nicole
Great little stay. We stayed for 7 nights and were sad to leave! Lodging is based on a caravan and tent pitching site but is its own private area of the site. Hot tub was great and we loved the fact it was private and not facing the site but rather at the back of the building. Facilities were great, lodging was warm. TV has everything you need on it, WiFi was great. We had a small issue were the water cut off but the facility owner came right over personally to let us know about the issue which was nice. Welcome pack was a nice touch! We had dogs so the private fencing around the garden was perfect to keep them in. Shops and things to do all near by. Would definitely book again.
