Lovely stay with a warm welcome!

Just spent 2 nights in a family room and wow, the owner is super friendly! The place was spotless and breakfast was delish. Felt right at home, except the shower could've been a bit stronger. Would totally recommend it to anyone looking for a cozy spot!

Would definitely recommend for a day tour

Comfy room, helpful staff, enjoyed a good breakfast experience with assistance during pick-up and appreciated the mini fridge for keeping drinks cold, which was important since there were no other facilities available.

Cannot find any fault.

clean family room

delicious breakfast

spotty wi-fi

We had a lovely stay with a beautifully clean family room and an amazing breakfast spread that kept everyone happy. The kids loved the pool while we relaxed in the cozy lounge area, perfect for unwinding after a long day. The only hiccup was the Wi-Fi being a bit spotty at times, but it didn't ruin the overall great experience. 😊

Amazing hospitality and cozy room!

Had an awesome time here! Luke, our host, was super friendly and made us feel right at home. The room was clean and cozy. Some sweet little extras. The location was on point for exploring. Just wish the breakfast hours were a bit longer. Can't wait to come back!

Convenient Stay with Room for Improvement

Our one-night stay in the double room had its ups and downs. While the cozy atmosphere was inviting, we faced some issues like insufficient towels and a lingering hallway odor. the local dining options nearby were delightful, saving our dinner plans. Don't hesitate to bring extra toiletries!

great stay but a few small issues

The family room was spacious and incredibly comfortable, truly one of the best beds I've slept in! The mini fridge was surprisingly large and very convenient for storing drinks and snacks during our stay.

The only minor drawback was the lack of variety in the breakfast options offered.

disappointing sleep

I really loved the free wi-fi! It made it so easy to plan our days. Unfortunately, the bed in our double room was pretty uncomfortable 😕. Not what I expected at all.
