None of the promised add ons were there or up to a good standard. Not sure what you are getting other than a basic tent. Wouldnt recommend.

We stayed in Podpads for We Out Here…

We stayed in Podpads for We Out Here festival and had the best stay. Our bell tents were fully equipped with double beds, towels, chairs, tables, pillows, lanterns, mirrors and flowers. It was such a comfy camping experience. Every tent pitch had a really good amount of space in front and to the side so it was great to be able to set up camp outside with the cooking stove and chat and chill out before going in to the festival. All our neighbours were really friendly as well. The boutique camping site was a quiet, calm area with great showers and toilets and we really appreciated the tent and charging station! Would definitely choose podpads again for the next festival we go to! Highly recommend. Thanks Podpads!

Maid of Stone

Stayed with Pod Pads during the Maid of Stone festival 21-24 July 2023.

The staff were brilliant, very attentive and nothing was too much trouble, especially John who even remembered us from previous festivals, went the extra mile with special occasions.

The accomodation was good but Pod Pads will need to make sure that items like 240V electric in the tents is supplied in this digital age, also if you advertise facilities like pampering tent, tea & coffee supplies and food & drink vendors make sure you state at which festivals this is supplied and which ones it isnt.

Other than that the toilet and shower blocks were spot on.

Keep doing what you do, but please remember the little stuff it means a lot. Communication has always been really good throughout the booking experience.

The Pod Experience & The Music - Yeah!

Loved my pod experience, nice showers, hairdryers, clean loos, phone charger and a comfy sleep, plus friendly neighbors and a reception area. The podpads were very close to the main events so you could pop in and out easily. Added the luxe to the amazing ATN Festival.

Pod Pads Perfection at All Together Now

Stayed with pod pads at All Together Now and had a fab weekend. We’ve used pod pads for three festivals now and every time have had a great experience, from ease of booking to on site help. The accommodation is always as described and robust in any weather. The location at this years All Together Now was brilliant and would be really keen to seem them maintain this excellent location. We’ve booked again for next year!

Podpads at All Together Now 2022

Used podpads at All Together Now (20`9 and 2022).
It was a little bit of a hike from the entrance to the podpads location, but 100 worth the effort!! Great set-up, great services, great location (close to showers & water). Clean toilet facilities were the icing on the cake!! Will definitely be using podpads at the next festival - the only question is how much luxury do I want!!

Glamping in an Octopod at Forever Young

Having spent many years camping at festivals, my lovely ladies friends and I decided it was time for an upgrade to glamping. At Forever Young 2022 we booked an Octopod, as we felt it would meet all our needs.
After a few teething minor things (first year back after the pandemic) which were dealt with very efficiently and effectively by the on-site team, the Octopod was brilliant. Such a joy to rock back every night to safe, comfortable accommodation. And share the experience with like minded (and aged) gig goers in the other Octopods around us.

5 stars!

5 stars!
Been using Podpads for a few years now because I was dreading camping at big festivals and now I can't go back to regular camping. The area is set up really well and facilities are great. The podpad itself is basic but clean and has everything you need and a key to get in which makes you feel pretty secure. An aside, but the crowd who take up the podpads are great too so there is never any trouble in the area. Close to festival area and clean bathrooms! Not exactly the cheapest but if you love your festivals, it's the only way to go...an investment in enjoyment even!

I really enjoyed the benefits of a pod…

I really enjoyed the benefits of a pod pad during the 3 day festival i went to this year. A bit of comfort and a bed to sleep in after a long days enjoyment and the perks😊.. constantly cleaned toilets, showers, food and coffee stalls close just for us made a huge difference to the whole experience . I tented it the year previous and never again.. pod pads all the way from now on.

Wonderful Podpad experience at the All Together Now…

We used Podpads at the All Together Now festival and it was a really great experience. Our accomadation was spot on and was a welcome retreat after a long dayof music. Toilets,showers and food stalls were great and the Podpad team were helpful and very friendly. I've already booked the same accomadation for ATN 2023

Well Recommended - Great Choice!

My friends and I have been with Podpads for every year of All Together Now festival in Waterford and have enjoyed the experience more and more each year. The XL Bellepad is perfect for our needs and we wouldn’t go back to regular camping ever! The beds were really comfortable and set-up in the tent was spot on. Customer service has always been great, so much so that I’ve even commented to other friends on how friendly and professional they have been each time I contacted them, not to mind how quick their response is. I never had any issues with Podpads and I would highly recommend them. I have even booked another XL bellepad for next year already!

Loved it so much we booked again for 2023

July 2022 we booked a Podpad tent to sleep 8 people. We couldn't of asked for any more it was wonderful. The tent was huge and could easily of slept more people. There were 3 beds in one area to the left, 3 beds in another area to the right and a communal middle area with a further 2 beds. The camp beds were comfortable and came with a clean fitted sheet and we just brought our own sleeping bag and pillow. Nice area outside also to relax during the day. We liked them so much we have booked the same tent for our festival next year.

We hired a lux podpad with Double Bed

We hired a lux podpad with Double Bed. Everything was just as you see it on the website. Podpads are really comfy and secure - we were given a key each. Seating area outside was lovely and we got to sit down and chat with the neighbours before and after the concerts. Shower and toilet facilities were within a short walking distance. Beauty tent with mirrors, hairdryers etc on site, tent with coffee provided in the morning and phone charging facilities. Staff extremely friendly and helpful. Will definitely be staying in the podpads again!

Best festival accommodation

Have used the luxury pods at forever young festival for 2 years and have just booked again for next year. Top class experience from check in where the staff are so friendly and helpful. Even offered help with our luggage and gear! Everything is exactly as advertised they provided everything down to towels and bedding. Having a real bed and electricity was the cherry on top! have no problem recommending pod pads for any festival.

Have booked again for 2023

Stayed in a Basic Bellepad at All Together Now 2022. I had purchased prior to the pandemic and Podpads answered my queries professionally during shutdown etc. We finally got to go to the Festival this year. Very happy with the experience. Had no issues at check in and departure. And the tent was exactly as advertised. Easy access to functioning showers throughout the weekend. My favourite thing was the close walking access to the Main Arena meant we could easily come and go from the Tent throughout the day. Have booked again for 2023.
