Stayed the weekend to visit family. Room was awesome, spacious and well set out with very comfy bed & sunny outdoor space. Enough room for visitors & no issue getting a couple of extra glasses. Super convenient to cafes/restaurants/shops and foreshore.

Lovely property, been staying here for years…..I will say that the new owners/operators are a real hit & miss…… sometimes you get a smile but most times you don’t. Certainly don’t feel as welcome as previous owners…… that made this place….. struggling to want to stay again….
