The glamping pods were lovely, spacious and clean. We booked two pods, and they had 2 adults and 2 children in both and suited the family perfectly. Cannot fault it at all, the facilities were great, the space was great, the staff were great and the location was perfect! Only a 14 minute drive to sandbanks. Would also recommend the barn next to it for breakfast but the manor itself gives your loads of suggestions on where to visit and what to do too!

Did not feel safe, this is a family home with lots of men inside. We refused to stay here due to feeling so unsafe and had to drive 4.5 hours home. No parking as promised and smashed up cars on the drive way. They refused to give us a key so we could leave to get some food. The property's facilities are all a lie. Do not stay here. Booking.com refused a refund

A nice caravan big enough for a family of 6 to stay comfortably. Ensuite off the main bedroom and separate bathroom. Cosy and warm. Good facilities for cooking, good clean cutlery.x lots of dvds for the children and a draw full of toys. Great location for Poole itself. Most things were within a 15-minute drive. Parking for 2 cars. Lovely break, thank you

Everything apart the weather but can not claim glamping owners for that 😁😉😎 Walking distance to the harbour, local amazing pubs, communication to city centre right by the entrance. Very friendly people, whole Poole is around 15min drive. Clean facilities really outstanding. Dishwashing designated area. Space for kids and for animals. Our cat felt like home especially with under floor heating. Quiet no stress for our furry family member.
