"The room was clean, we were upgraded to a superior room, as we were staying 5 nights and they are the rooms that have a microwave. There was no tea towel, no forks, no washing up detergent or anything like that, very basic. The pool wasn't in operation, it was empty, for all the tine we were there, no mention of that when we checked it. It's just a basic motel, not a resort. Plus the large rubbish skip bin is in the driveway on the way to the units, it smelt putrid as you walked passed...

"Excellent place to stay, food was brilliant and facilities top notch"

"Very warm welcome and caring caretaker. Made a big difference for us. The cabin is exactly as described. Wake up to birds chirping in the surrounding trees."
