We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the fire station. Immaculately presented in all respects & the most comfortable bed. Had we wanted to cook there was only a microwave. The only thing I could say that would have made it more perfect. Great position with a short walk yo the sunset beach & main street just around the corner with a good selection of resaurants all lusted with menus in the room information book.

Top quality property and great value.
This gem exceeded all expectations except a glitch at check in caused by the booking agent, not the property. Excellently presented room with great facilities. Bed was fantastic, room spacious and spotless and the whole experience first rate. This is one of the best places we’ve ever stayed.

This was a brilliant looking accomodation. Tidy, clean, had everything we needed but found there wasn’t enough air flow through it and so it had a stagnant smell from the moment we got to the top of the first floor stairs - then into our room. We also found that we could hear many room doors opening and closing - which seemed a little annoying.
Stayed 2 nights in Aug 2022
Response from Kerry the Fire chief on 24 Aug 2022
Thankyou for your review, we must say sorry for the smell,we do try and ventilate the rooms best we can between guests,but sadly sometimes smells can linger with cooking from around the world. Hope your trip went well and we see you again
