North Coast 500 Pods

We stayed for one night whilst on the NC500 route. A beautiful gem of a place, well designed, fully functional kitchen, communal sauna and private hot tub which we made good use of. Close to Brora for facilities but a welcome piece of tranquility. Superb all round.

Fantastic accommodation. Beautiful views. Fitted to high standard and well equipped. Outdoor seating with each pod and use of shared sauna pod. Allocated parking. Village close by which has reasonable Coop for shopping & selection of restaurants or take away if you don’t fancy cooking. Tea, coffee, sugar, washing up liquid and toiletries provided. (However some individual milk pots would be useful too).

Owner was lovely and we made great use of the sauna at sunrise which we weren’t expecting! Place was clean and provided Wi-Fi for tv which was also an added bonus. Will definitely be back. The pods are very clean and the heating was easy to use.

Booked via *********** and cancelled immediately on arrival. Firstly, the advert said there is a bbq on site and there wasnt. It was also advertised as being 250 yards from the centre and 350 yards from the beach as shown in the pictures below and it turned out to be over 2 miles away and a 55 min walk! Not sure if ill get a refund yet but please check all details before booking to stay here. Best off at the sutherland in near shops and food places.

The pod was nice and clean and modern but would have preferred a partition between living room and bedroom. Also a bathroom with a door would have been more convenient. Location is very nice, quiet with lovely views. Wi-Fi ok, went on and off and Alexa lights etc not working. There was no underfloor heating as stated on the website. I did let them know about this so hopefully be updated. Also the heating hadn’t been put on for our arrival so the pod was very chilly. Heaters took ages to heat up. Not enough bath towels for using in shower and hot tub, a couple of extra ones would have been good. The sauna didn’t work at all. Brora is quiet but it was January, Co op has most things you need. Chinese takeaway was nice and fish and chips in Golspie were lovely. Nice wee break just missing a few things.

Amazing location and the pods are just perfect for what you need. We came as 4 adults and a dog and there was plenty of room for all of us to fit comfortably. Everything was clean and tidy and well thought out. I had a guest with me from Canada who was desperate to see a highland cow and the owners went well above and beyond to make that happen for her which was just so lovely. Perfect value for money and a great way to see the highlands. Was worried it may be cold but it was toasty warm and we lucked out with the weather also. Thanks will definitely be booking again.

Very new and beautiful pods. All you need is there including a free sauna. Our cells phone provider didnt work in this area but good WiFi.

I had the combination for the key lock but had no idea how to access the key until another traveler arrived and showed me. I couldn’t raise anyone to ask. Then when I went to leave for the evening I did not know how to close the door until a local told me about holding the handle down to close and up to lock. This is totally foreign to non-Scots (or non-Brits?) and by that time I would have totally frustrated and gone somewhere else despite having paid for the night. Otherwise, a very cute, clean pod - good fun.
