This place is ok but was quite expensive for how old it is and where it is. Still need to drive to town and no good cafe or restaurants close by. A bit noisey from road but still slept ok. Does have close access to river path by Cobham bridge.
Really comfortable stay. Friendly service plus the added bonus of being able to buy dinner from the food truck at the property. Everything was super easy and convenient. Thanks.
