Lovely accommodation especially for the price. The property was well maintained & cleanliness was fantastic. Our only small negative was that the water pressure of the shower was a bit weak. Felt like a water sprinkler. Other than that, the staff were friendly & the location is good with only a few minutes drive to town.

We had such a great stay! The room was spotless and beautifully presented you can tell they take real pride in keeping everything clean and comfortable. The pool was also nice and clean, although it was raining at the time of our stay, my children thoroughly enjoyed it. The customer service was absolutely amazing friendly, welcoming, and so helpful from start to finish. Our whole experience exceeded expectations, and we would definitely stay again. Highly recommend! 😊
