Extra attentive host with beautiful pods.

We had a wonderful stay! Lindsay was so kind to help us get to and from our destination. The pod itself was super clean, and set up for Valentine’s Day which was a beautiful little extra touch. Tea and coffee was provided, had everything you would need for a perfect stay! Can’t thank you enough for a wonderful trip to Southwell. We will be back soon.
