FAQs
Can I book with children?
Unfortunately, we are currently an adult only retreat. When we began our journey, we launched predominantly as a romantic couple’s getaway but were determined to also be family friendly and did everything we could to accommodate this.
Unfortunately, with the limited space in the pods, a raised decking, a sunken hot tub and an exposed fire pit we had to make the difficult decision after two years that The Pods simply aren’t suitable for children. As business owners, we have to prioritize our guests and the safety of little ones.
We recognise that this is disappointing for families and can only apologise. We are still a relatively new business venture and all being well, we hope to expand in the future and will consider larger family pods.
Are pets allowed?
Unfortunately, we have a no pet policy. We adore animals, but the field neighbouring the glamping pods has deer and we have lots of animals on the farm we need to prioritise.
Do you accept stag / hens?
At this time, we are not accepting stag / hen bookings. We are a family run business, with some family members living nearby and we feel the need to respect this.
Can we use the open farm before/after our stay?
Yes! Check in is at 3.30pm and check out is at 11am. However, you are more than welcome to visit the farm either side of these during their opening hours 11am-5pm. We have luggage facilities on site if you would like to store your belongings during your visit.
What is your Covid cancellation policy?
The Pods at Streamvale will comply with Government guidelines and regulations surrounding Covid 19. In the scenario of another full lockdown, guests will receive a full refund.
If you have tested positive or are experiencing symptoms and you are booked to stay with us, please notify us by email or phone to discuss the postponement of your booking. We at The Pods at Streamvale want to make sure you can still enjoy your retreat, even if it takes place on a different date to originally planned.
Do you have disabled access?
Unfortunately upon inspection, our pods did not meet the necessary requirements for wheelchair access. The doorway to the bathrooms is currently too narrow. This is something we intend to rectify as soon as possible and can only apologise for the disappointment at this time!
Does each pod have its own hot tub?
Yes! Every pod has its own private sunken hot tub for you to enjoy during your stay!
Is the Open Farm open all year round?
No, please note that the Farm is closed from the 1st November – 17th March and prices have been reduced to reflect this. For guests visiting during the Christmas period, please note bookings for Streamvale Farm’s Christmas Experience must be made separately.
