Compact, well-equipped glamping pods with good signal, lovely location, and kind hosts. Everything included for a fabulous stay, including games and breakfast pack. Great stopover for the NC500, close to John O Groats. Perfect for a stress-free getaway.
Felt welcome, nothing was too much trouble.

I absolutely loved my stay at these cozy little pods! They exceeded all my expectations. the amenities provided were of a good standard, and the breakfast basket was top-notch. the location was perfect for exploring the surrounding areas, and it was a great stopover for those doing the NC500. the owners have thought of everything, from games to a microwave and even a stove. It was a fantastic glamping experience, with a compact space that still managed to fit in everything I needed. the hosts were kind and even provided logs for a fire.
The only slight downside was that the bed and shower were a bit small, but I expected that in a pod. It didn't take away from the overall experience, though.

Everything! These pods were clean and cosy, with a perfectly heated space. The host was incredibly responsive and made us feel welcomed. The continental breakfast provided was a delicious surprise and the fridge was stocked with a variety of tasty treats. The hosts have truly thought of everything, from fire pits to games, making our stay enjoyable and hassle-free. The location was ideal, with beautiful views of the countryside and easy access to nearby attractions. this was a fantastic experience that I highly recommend.
Although our overall experience was great, the shower in the pod was a bit small for us. it would have been nice to have access to regular TV channels.

The location was great, allowing us to escape the hustle and bustle of the city. We were still within a short drive of local amenities, making it convenient for us. the hosts were incredibly friendly and accommodating, making our stay stress-free. Another bonus was the well-kept and cleverly designed pods, providing a unique and cozy experience.
The shower in the pod was incredibly small, which made it difficult for us to shower comfortably. the lack of regular TV channels was a bit disappointing.

The bathroom inside the pods is convenient and clean. The breakfast packs and other food options provided are of incredible quality and quantity, sourced from a local butcher. The hosts are kind and accommodating, offering extra amenities such as firewood and matches for a cozy atmosphere.

During my recent stay at the pod, I had a wonderful time. The hosts were incredibly attentive, ensuring that I had everything I needed for a comfortable stay. They even provided me with a delicious breakfast pack and BBQ pack at a very affordable price. The quality of the food was outstanding. I particularly enjoyed the fire pit outside, which created a relaxing and enjoyable atmosphere. One specific situation that stood out to me was when I realized that the frying pan in the pod was a bit small, which made cooking breakfast a bit challenging. However, despite this minor hiccup, I was still able to enjoy a delicious meal.
The bed in the pod was cozy and comfortable, but I found it a bit inconvenient that there wasn't a designated spot for a cup. I had to get up and use the sofa in the morning to enjoy my cup of tea.

We stayed at North Point Pods for a night while doing the NC500 drive and it was the perfect pit stop. The pod itself was brilliantly designed, with a comfortable bed and high-quality facilities. The in-built bathroom was a convenient touch. We loved the outdoor experience, sitting by the campfire and enjoying the beautiful views of the fields and stars. The preordered barbecue pack was delicious, and we appreciated the picnic table and swing for our child. a unique and enjoyable stay.
Can't recommend this hotel highly enough.

The pod was relatively new and had a lovely, cozy bed. the in-built bathroom was convenient and the shower had good water pressure. the location was great for exploring the surrounding area and was a perfect stop on the coastal drive.
The cleanliness could have been better, with cobwebs and dust on the wood and appliances. Some items like cutlery and towels were stained.
