Great property, enjoyed our stay and great communication with the hosts!
10 / 10Outstanding·Jul 2024
Our group enjoyed the stay though winter and at the Whale Festival most the stay it provided everything we need. Just need to sleep with doors open in winter as there’s only one split system heater, that we knew if anyway.
8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2024
Short stay for a family wedding. Great catch up with family and a trip out to see the penguins.
6 / 10Average·Nov 2024
Great facilities for the whole family BUT Doors don't shut in the toilet and bathroom. Uncut lawns, poor visual appeal due to garden maintenance. Cigarette butts around the pool area. Had to keep kids away from the pond in case they caught something. Old furniture and poor condition of furniture both inside and out. This place needs so money spent on it to justify the price being charging. Could be very nice with just some regular attention to the property. Place looked stunning on the website.
