This was an outstanding place to stay at, one of few pet-friendly accommodations in the area too. It was peaceful, spacious and very clean and tidy. Thank you Podium Lodge.

We didn't have a long stay at Podium - we arrived late at night and left early the next morning. Our room was clean and fresh, warm and comfortable. And super close to St Peters College - where we were competing. Would definitely recommend.

Excellent dog-friendly accommodation
The Podium Lodge exceeded my expectations. The accommodation (studio unit) was spacious and tastefully decorated. I had a good night sleep as the bed was very comfortable and the location peaceful. A huge bonus to find a nice place to stay that is dog-friendly. There was ample floor space for my dog to have his large travel bed set up. There was a large grassy area away from the rooms, suitable for exercising dogs. It's not right in the town centre but is only a few minutes' drive away. Overall, an excellent stay.
