Our pod was ready at the time stated and was clean and tidy. They provided all bedding, towels and a bag of marshmallows for the fire pit. All staff were friendly and very helpful. We ate at Babydoll’s in the evening and food was delicious… only down side is snack food and drinks in the cafes are quite expensive, I don’t think they need to be that pricey. Overall we loved it and would love to go back. ##### Debbie Stayed 1 night in Apr 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Laura Jul 8, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication #### Amazing time at Port Lympne I took my partner for his birthday and we had the most amazing time.

I didn’t realise when I booked that the room is not en-suite. Which was fine except only two toilets for 12-14 pods. The pods are nice and very well kept, but very small for mote than 2 people. Family with little kids ok, but we were groups of adults and teenagers so not idea. Over all place is very nice, but probably not worth the cost. ##### Emma Stayed 2 nights in Mar 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Christopher May 2, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort pillows poor? didn’t tell us where toilets where. would to had option to hire golf cart ##### Christopher Stayed 1 night in May 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Yazmin Nov 5, 2023 Liked: Property conditions & facilities, communication Disliked: Amenities The shared bathrooms were very dirty and tired and I didn't expect that for the price ##### Yazmin Stayed 1 night in Nov 2023 ### 8/10 Good #### Sophie Sep 15, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, communication Disliked: Room comfort The stay is brilliant - waking up with the lions roaring and even going throughout the night (which did scare our 2yo!) was amazing. we would definitely upgrade to a lodge where you get a golf buggy next time as the zoo is difficult to get round on foot as it’s so hilly. Also the sofa bed which is the double bed (alongside 2 singles) is unbelievably uncomfortable - I’m talking the worst nights sleep on a rock hard surface! The pod is also tiny so it is a tight squeeze and the sofa bed once downtotally blocks the front door ##### Sophie Stayed 1 night in Sep 2024 ### 6/10 Okay #### Faye Mar 2, 2025 Liked: Communication Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities We stayed in a Pinewood pod, and while the size and amenities were as expected, we were particularly disappointed by the cleanliness. There were visible signs of damp and black mold on the wood and various areas of the pod. Whether these had been cleaned or not, they were still noticeable and concerning. The real issue, however, came when we were getting ready for bed. After putting our son to sleep, we prepared our own beds and were shocked by what we found. The quilt and pillow for the futon were dirty, with visible mud marks from shoes. While I tried to be open-minded about this, what we discovered next was unacceptable. When pulling back the sheets on the other single bed, we found a pair of little girl’s pajama trousers—clear evidence that the bed had been made up but not cleaned. The safari experience itself is a real treat, but Port Lympne is slipping when it comes to its overnight accommodations. Given the price paid for a single night, the lack of attention to cleanliness was both surprising and disappointing. ##### Faye ### 10/10 Excellent #### Claire Jul 6, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities, communication Great experience for my 1 and 8 year old ##### Claire Stayed 1 night in Jun 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Ed Sep 16, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Ed Stayed 1 night in Sep 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Karina Aug 30, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Karina Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Amy Jan 2, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Amy Stayed 1 night in Dec 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Neil Nov 6, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, communication ##### Neil Stayed 1 night in Nov 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christopher Oct 31, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Christopher Stayed 1 night in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Rich Jul 5, 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort, communication ##### Rich Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Middlethorpe Hall And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-Middlethorpe-Hall-And-Spa.h528441.Hotel-Information) > > [No Man's Fort](https://www.expedia.ca/Portsmouth-Hotels-No-Mans-Fort.h11536410.Hotel-Information) > > [The Old Greenhouse - UK45328](https://www.expedia.ca/Market-Rasen-Hotels-2-Bedroom-Accommodation-In-Wragby.h99351005.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Scarborough-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h44509462.Hotel-Information) > > [Pennyhill Park Hotel And Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Bagshot-Hotels-Pennyhill-Park-Hotel-And-Spa.h517256.Hotel-Information) > > [The Trout](https://www.expedia.ca/Cockermouth-Hotels-The-Trout.h11899282.Hotel-Information) > > [Delta Hotels by Marriott Peterborough](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-Peterborough-Marriott-Hotel.h691233.Hotel-Information) > > [Parkview Apartments](https://www.expedia.ca/High-Wycombe-Hotels-Parkview-Apartments.h32463857.Hotel-Information) > > [Low Wood Bay Resort & Spa](https://www.expedia.ca/Windermere-Hotels-Low-Wood-Bay.h5243.Hotel-Information) > > [Hill Top Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Lincoln-Hotels-Hill-Top-Cottage.h30996426.Hotel-Information) > > [The Pearl Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Peterborough-Hotels-The-Pearl-Hotel.h6335144.Hotel-Information) > > [The Riverside Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Lechlade-Hotels-The-Riverside-Inn.h6137065.Hotel-Information) > > [The George](https://www.expedia.ca/Cheltenham-Hotels-The-George-Hotel.h45140643.Hotel-Information) > > [Tides Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Pevensey-Hotels-Tides-Cottage.h42241061.Hotel-Information) > > [Eastern Boulevard in Leicester](https://www.expedia.ca/Leicester-Hotels-Student-Only-Eastern-Boulevard.h112048522.Hotel-Information) > > [Waverley Bed & Breakfast](https://www.expedia.ca/Minehead-Hotels-Waverley-Bed-Breakfast.h5506547.Hotel-Information) > > [The White Hart Royal Hotel, Moreton-in-Marsh](https://www.expedia.ca/Moreton-In-Marsh-Hotels-White-Hart-Royal-Hotel.h3848404.Hotel-Information) > > [Weston Manor Bed and Breakfast](https://www.expedia.ca/Totland-Bay-Hotels-Weston-Manor-Bed-And-Breakfast.h12348775.Hotel-Information) > > [Alberts Lodge](https://www.expedia.ca/Lincoln-Hotels-Alberts-Lodge.h30998732.Hotel-Information) > > [The Rest Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Lincoln-Hotels-The-Rest-Hotel.h94739579.Hotel-Information) > > [Blenheim Guest House York](https://www.expedia.ca/York-Hotels-English-Gentleman.h41485295.Hotel-Information) > > [Cotswolds Valley Accommodation-Excl Prop](https://www.expedia.ca/Stroud-Hotels-Cotswolds-Valley-Accommodation-Excl-Prop.h45755527.Hotel-Information) > > [Harbour Hotel St Ives](https://www.expedia.ca/St-Ives-Hotels-St-Ives-Harbour-Hotel.h175599.Hotel-Information) > > [The Manor House](https://www.expedia.ca/Dronfield-Hotels-The-Manor-House.h4780993.Hotel-Information) > > [Citi Hotel Luton](https://www.expedia.ca/Luton-Hotels-EasyHotel-Luton.h20009298.Hotel-Information) > > [YotelAIR London Gatwick ](https://www.expedia.ca/Gatwick-Hotels-Yotel-Air-London-Gatwick.h18969729.Hotel-Information) > > [Cockley Beck Cottage](https://www.expedia.ca/Broughton-In-Furness-Hotels-Cockley-Beck-Cottage.h26991095.Hotel-Information) > > [Woodchester Valley Vineyard Barns](https://www.expedia.ca/Stroud-Hotels-Vineyard-Barn-Room.h44718436.Hotel-Information)
