Never, ever will we stay here again!!

Privacy (I think) Availability for our needed date at short notice 🤔 Easy to book online Plenty of beds to suit up to six with one double and two sets of bunks.

1. In the dark it was a little hard to find. 2. Rough steep gravel driveway that was difficult to walk down. 3. The SMELL of a dead animal in the ceiling or wall near the kids room, so strong, we were so nauseous 🤢 4. Loud possums fighting on the roof and balcony through the night (can’t be helped I guess). 5. The most uncomfortable double bed I’ve ever slept in! Soft in sunken, very noisy just from rolling over! 6. Very dusty all around, dirty cooking utensils and pans (not useable) 😒 had to eat out for breakfast. 7. Terrible tv reception and no wifi. 8. Very early knocking on the door!! 9. No communication from owner/s about my concerns about the situations we encountered!

Overall I loved it

View and location were spectacular! Very quaint

Some general maintenance on doors and cupboards, tv hangs crooked on wall, furniture quality was cheap, making the chairs and very small bed uncomfortable
