Cinema pods which featured on Dragons Den' get new Welsh location

A Welsh business which received the backing of two stars when they appeared on Dragons' Den has just expanded their cinema pods setup to a new location. The business, known as the Cosy Cinema, has just opened a third site in Newport. They also have plans to expand to Swansea next year.

Featuring 15 bespoke cinema pods under one roof, complete with a private bathroom and shower facilities only for cinema guests, it sounds like it is the full experience. John and Sian Colderley, who run Cosy Cinema in Cardiff and Dinas Powys, appeared on Dragons' Den and were successful in winning the backing of guest Dragon Gary Neville and show regular Touker Suleyman.

Talking about Gary and Touker's new involvement in the business Sian told WalesOnline earlier this year: "They have been really good, really supportive. We have been down to London to see Touker and to Manchester and met with Gary for breakfast and a meeting." For the latest Newport news sign up to our newsletter here.

John and Sian have designed the business with the hope of building Cosy Cinema Pod Park "in inner cities for many guests to enjoy" and to offer an experience that stands out from the crowd. In the pods you can stream your favourite films or box sets from the comfort of a king-size bed. There are different ways to book and prices depend on when you want to go in and for how long.

Cosy Cinema pods come with a king-size bed, heating, and air conditioning along with a 92in screen. Guests can log into their own Netflix accounts and other streaming services such as Disney+, Prime, Sky TV, and YouTube.
