The property was better than expected. It suited our group perfectly. We found it ended up being cheaper than other groups who were staying elsewhere. It had everything that was needed for us. Had an office which meant two of our mates could still work from home quietly. The kids had a blast playing in the garage with all the games which kept them entertained. The property manager was lovely to talk too as well. Would recommend staying here next time you’re in the area.
