"The area was so quiet and right across the road from the three sisters. You couldn't get any closer.. The property was clean and tidy and just what we needed. Beds were comfy, the unit was cozy, nice hot shower. We could have done our own cooking if we wanted and we could park the car on the property. The staff were well organised for travellers like us who arrive and leave outside office hours."
