This accomodation is a brilliant place to stay, we stayed for 5 night, the place is very clean, a great size for families, we are a family of 4 our kids are in their 20’s we never felt on top of each other, it’s large enough and having 3 bathrooms is fantastic
The seperate lounge room with open fireplace was a great addition
The walk into town is quick, the return not so quick, but a great workout!
I thoroughly recommend this accomodation, we will be back next year for sure !
