“I had a brilliant stay at Cherry Pod 2 – it’s the perfect little spot if you fancy escaping to the countryside without giving up your home comforts.”
The pod itself was spotless, cosy, and really well laid out – everything you need cleverly tucked into a small space without ever feeling cramped. It had a modern, fresh feel, with a smart TV and a really comfy sofa that made lazy evenings almost impossible to resist. The private decking area was a real bonus too, perfect for sitting out with a drink and watching the sun go down, feeling like you were sat outside a pricey restaurant rather than just a few steps from your own front door.
From the moment I arrived, I felt properly welcomed. Andy gave me a quick tour and pointed out some brilliant walking routes nearby, and Dru made a really nice first impression by complimenting my car — a small thing, but it instantly made everything feel even more relaxed and friendly. They had also left a bottle of Prosecco and some biscuits inside the pod, which was a lovely touch and set a really positive tone for the stay.
It was just me and my cocker spaniel at first, and the place couldn't have been better set up for her. The enclosed garden, complete with chicken wire all the way around the boundary and a secure gate, meant I could actually relax without worrying she’d wander off. Andy even commented how she had calmed down nicely after her initial frantic exploring session when she first ran in – although true to cocker spaniel form, she did spend some time trying to shuffle herself underneath the pod, just in case there were more adventures to be had!
Another really handy thing: if the weather’s behaving, you can drive right up to the pod to unload. It’s a game-changer if, like me, you tend to pack for every possible eventuality. And even if it’s raining, the parking is still close and easy to manage.
Location-wise, it’s spot on. There’s a local pub just a short trip away for a good hearty meal, and it’s an easy drive into Shrewsbury or out into the beautiful Shropshire Hills if you fancy exploring a bit further.
All in all, Cherry Pod 2 gave me (and the dog) everything we needed for a proper recharge: peaceful setting, comfy bed, cosy evenings, lovely hosts, and a garden that kept both of us happy. I'd absolutely recommend it if you're after a relaxed, easy-going break — and if you do happen to forget anything, Andy and Dru seem like exactly the kind of people who’d lend you whatever you needed without a second thought.
Omg. What amazing review. Words fail me. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts. Such amazing feedback. We hope to see you again. And yes loved the car. Many thanks Andy and Dru
