Daisy Glamping Pod – a Rural Retreat in Mid Wales

Daisy is one of a collection of six dog friendly lodges with hot tubs in Wales's unspoilt countryside. Daisy Pod has an enclosed garden, two king sized bedrooms, two sofas and a fully fitted kitchen.

Daisy Pod makes a comfortable base from which to explore on foot, by bike or by car. With World-class scenery all around you and Red Kites flying overhead. From Daisy Pod you can walk to the Gilfach Nature Reserve and beyond to the Marteg River. The famous Elan Valley is a stones throw away, and former home to the Romantic poet Shelley.

Daisy is one of six homely Glamping Pods with hot tubs near Rhayader. Set in the little farming village of Saint Harmon.

Up to 4 guests can enjoy a comfy holiday with two king sized bedrooms, one converting to a twin bedroom if you wish.

You can easily prepare a feast in the fully fitted kitchen! With oven, microwave and dishwasher set beneath an elegant marble worktop. Daisy Pod has been designed with storage solutions to keep your space clear and tidy. Relax after a day out on the two sofas and catch up with your favourite TV series. Or gaze out to see your dog snoozing or sniffing in your private fenced garden!

Get ready for an evening out in the modern shower room, with corner shower and flushing toilet. There are plenty of pubs and restaurants to tempt you, although it may be difficult to leave your private garden!

Enjoy a relaxing hot tub break in Wales's fresh air and idyllic scenery here at Daisy Pod. Let the heat of the bubbles unwind the stresses of living life by the clock. Admire the fantastic rural views of Mid Wales, with the added peace of mind that the fenced private garden gives you. A must for any dog friendly glamping pod or family holiday in Wales, or anywhere else! Relax with a good read on the outdoor furniture or in the hot tub, or toast marshmallows over the firepit. Then stargaze under the famously dark skies.

Please note: Dogs are welcome, but they must not be left unattended on the property.

Hot Tub

Great place to stay for a relaxing countryside holiday 4.2/5

We had a lovely time staying in the Daisy pod for a few days. Very well designed to maximise space and having the closed off garden was excellent for our dog. The hot tub is slightly exposed to the other gardens but once the bushes have grown a bit , I think it would be more hidden. The only draw-back is the humming noises from the heating/hot tub at night, they can be quite loud at times. Other than that, I would definitely recommend this place and cannot wait to come back.

Sophie Munnings | 13 January 2026

Gorgeous stay 5/5

Our 2nd time at this location and another perfect stay. Gorgeous touch with christmas decorations and a bottle of prosecco for NYE. The location is becoming a firm favourite and no doubt we will be back for a 3rd time! Would highly recommend

Jessica Evans | 03 January 2026

Amazing stay again. 5/5

I stayed previously with my sister, two children and two dogs. This time I came back with my partner for a more relaxing stay! Both times my stay has been amazing. It has everything you need to cook with. It’s lovely and cosy of an evening. The only thing I struggled with both times is finding the correct turn into the site! Will definitely be back again.

Lauren Dunbar | 24 February 2025

Fantastic stay 5/5

We had a fantastic stay. We arrived to a fabulous big pod, we were very surprised how beautiful and big it was. I was beautifully clean from the oven to the cups and plates. There was milk, teabags and some fresh Mince pie’s which was a lovely touch. We did have a issue with the heating, but we contacted the owners and they were there straight away to sort it out for us, we didn’t have any more issues. The bed was so comfy and warm. We used the hot tub which was just amazing! A real treat. Our dog was able to enjoy the outdoors to with out us worrying about him getting out as it has a fence right around our pod. The local town is about 5-10min drive away which has local shops, pubs and takeaways. We tried the local fish and chip shop which was fantastic and would recommend. We enjoyed our stay so much we have rebooked to come again in the spring. We would highly recommend and if you want some time away just to recharge we would definitely recommend here..

Christopher Wynne | 09 January 2025

Beautiful pods 4.7/5

It was our first stay at the Daisy pod and we absolutely loved it here. The pods are in a beautiful location and there is something for everyone. There are so many beautiful walks near by which our dogs loved, there’s a park a stone through away for children and the hot tub was fantastic. The pods are so well equipped and clean, we throughly enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back in the future.

Chelsea Dyson | 07 November 2024

Mini break 5/5

Had a lovey couple of days break, the pod is beautiful and enjoyed the hot tub. Stunning location, great it is dog friendly and the garden area was enclosed so my dog could wonder freely. However I missed the site entrance from the main road but a quick call to the owner soon sorted locating the site, much appreciated for them being on hand for directions. Explored the local area recommend the Elan valley and the red kite feeding station- gigrin. Would recommend a stay here and love to return one day.

Hannah Warwick | 17 October 2024

A great staycation – would recommended 4.2/5

We stayed at Daisy for 2 nights, was a wonderful staycation for our family. Great location, only a short drive into town, the property was very clean when we arrived. Managed to get some time in the hot tub and see the northern lights! Would definitely go back

Guest | 12 October 2024

A perfect Dog Friendly escape to the country break! 4.2/5

We had a great stay here and would definitely recommend! The pod has our key box so no need to check in, you’re given the code before you arrive via email. We didn’t really speak to anyone at the site! The garden was fully secure all round so the ease of our dog being able to be let out in the garden without a worry of him running off was so reassuring. The hot tub was perfect, hot, clean and they checked on it every day. There was a fire pit provided and logs/kindlings/lighters were able to be purchased for £10 from the honesty shop. The pod was big and included a TV, dining table, two small sofas and a fully fitted kitchen with pretty much everything you needed! The only thing we found wasn’t there that would have been useful was foil and salt & pepper. The bed was fairly comfortable- a bit difficult to get in and out of the slanted roof side of the bed. There was a full length mirror, dressing table and stool, shelves and under bed storage in both rooms. The bathroom was clean and the shower was really good quality. Only thing we would say is the toilet seat dips in towards the toilet bowl so was quite uncomfortable! We couldn’t really figure out the heating but it was pretty warm during our stay and if we got chilly there was an electric radiator in the living room. During our stay we visited a few places: We visited the Hafren Forset which was beautiful and a really nice walk with access to the streams and amazing views- our pup loved it! We also went to the Elan Valley Dams- not really our thing but the views were pretty amazing. A very long walk though so I would say drive between dams if you’re not much of a hiker! On our last full day we visited Gilfach Nature Reserve which again had amazing views, fields for our pup to run off in (no cattle were grazing when we visited). We saw the waterfall and walked in the stream with our pup. Food: We cooked a cottage pie on our first night which we were so glad the kitchen was well equipped with all the dishes/utensils we needed. We had a takeaway from Evan’s Plaice which was really nice! We also had a takeaway Indian from “Spice hut” but that wasn’t very good at all unfortunately. There was a table/bench in the garden which was lovely to have our meals on but not great to sit round the fire so I would advise to take a camping chair if that’s something you wanted to do. All in all we had a lovely stay!

Daisy Eager | 21 September 2024

Amazing stay 4.8/5

We really enjoyed our stay in the Daisy pod. We’ve told all our friends and family about it. Beautifully designed and equipped with everything we needed. Our only recommendation would be to have a king bed rather than a double. Size wise it maybe too tight but that’s was our only thought. The bedding was so soft which was lovely! Thank you

Elizabeth Bevan-Beirne | 11 March 2024

Amazing 5/5

Really enjoyed our stay at ‘daisy’ The location was perfect, so peaceful and plenty to do within a short drive. Had a lovely Sunday lunch at the Lamb and Flag in Rhayader. The pod has everything you can ask for. Highly recommend and will definitely be staying again.

Brad Lewis | 30 January 2024

Totally unexpected! 5/5

My girlfriend had been trying to convince me to stay in a clamping pod for over a year and finally I buckled. I thought it would be a small cold shed but I was very wrong. This is basically a posh hobbit house. The kitchen, furniture and decoration is very high end. Great location 5 mins drive from nearest town. Would 100% stay again!

Guest | 23 January 2024

Lovely place! 5/5

Lovely place, beautiful Welsh countryside. Accommodation was perfect, lovely and warm inside which is what we needed getting out of the hot tub on a snowy evening. Our dog enjoyed running around the garden which was enclosed. Just perfect, walking distance to the local village, everything was easy and we felt very welcomed! We will come again for sure! Thank you hosts.

Sarah Coleman | 04 December 2023

Loved it 5/5

Stayed at Daisy for the weekend, it was just what we needed. Pod was great, has everything you need. Spent our mornings and evenings relaxing in the hottub, loving the peace and quiet. 100% will return. Elan valley is a must

Sarah Reoch | 02 December 2023

Excellent stay lovely chilled out few days 5/5

Daisy glamping pod was amazing and just what we needed for a few days relaxing. The pod has everything you need and more. All fixtures and fittings are to a high standard, full kitchen with all appliances needed, lots of plug sockets and excellent WiFi (needed with 2 teenagers). Hot tub is a great addition. The fenced off garden meant the dog could be out safe in our knowledge he couldn’t escape. The welcome pack is a lovely idea meaning you don’t need to worry about bringing the small things such as dishwasher tablets and washing up liquid. The local town is a short drive away where to you can pick up anything extra needed. There are several nice walks and visits to dam’s that can be reached which add to the magic of your stay. Definitely will be returning.

Kimberley Lavery | 05 November 2023

Perfect weekend trip 5/5

Beautiful cabin, super clean and comfortable. Hot tub and the views were perfect. I loved the enclosed garden for my dog. Cabin had everything we needed for cooking our own food. Dishwasher was a lovely added bonus! Would 100% recommend and return! Good value for money split between the 4 of us that went!

Keihanah Horner | 09 October 2023

100 5/5

The best. A wonderful stay in daisy. We had a fantastic time. Beautiful place and great holiday. We will recommend it to everyone. Many thanks.

Carol Duffield | 03 October 2023

Our stay at Daisy 5/5

We had a lovely stay at Daisy. The place was brilliant especially the hot tub, views and location. We would definitely recommend to family and friends.

Anne Pearson | 19 August 2023

2nd stay in flower pods 5/5

This is the 2nd time we have stayed at the flower pods, love it here. Well laid out & spacious for a family of 4, lovely location. Elan Valley is a must the Dam’s are just stunning

Guest | 04 June 2023

Couldn’t have asked for a better stay!! 5/5

Our stay was absolutely amazing!! The lodge itself was immaculate and perfect for us as a family of 3 along with our cockapoo! Our dog loved being able to roam outside and our little boy loved that it was a ‘home from home’. The hot tub was an added bonus for us!! Would highly recommend and have already done so to friends! We’ll definitely be back again.

Taylor Richards | 23 May 2023

Super stay at Daisy 5/5

We had a brilliant stay at Daisy could not fault anything from relaxing evenings in the hot tub to waking in the morning to the beautiful views will be returning very soon

Paul Callaghan | 16 April 2023

Perfect, relaxing family retreat! 5/5

Daisy was so clean and organised, everything was thought of which meant it was more enjoyable for us all. The shower was incredible and the hot tub was amazing! We will definitely be returning and recommending to all our friends.

Francesca Gummow | 08 April 2023

Welcome escape 4.8/5

A lovely retreat in the countryside. The accommodation and facilities provided were top notch and it is an incredibly peaceful part of the world. A real escape weekend. Only minor update would be the clarity of location on the website when booking due to multiple sites with multiple types of accommodation. These pods are in the village of St Harmon.

Tania Wild | 07 March 2023

Weekend away. 5/5

Fabulous weekend away – lovely local shops and places to eat. Daisy pod was furnished beautifully, warm (we went beginning of November) lovely kitchen and great hot tub. Loved it so much we have booked again for this year.
