This property has a old world charm with convenient access to the main street. The staff are very helpful and provided great hospitality. The only draw back is off street parking which is always full outside the property.
A wonderful three night stay. Simonne looked after us so well, communicating with us prior to arrival, suggesting places and eateries to visit and providing all the niceties for breakfast complete with bubbly in the fridge and a cheese platter. The room was clean and we wanted for nothing. Highly recommended.
Host was awesome!!! Provided some lovely snacks and champagne on arrival actually best ever treats! We even got extra time at no expense:) we would return for sure… gardens beautiful as well :)
Our stay was fabulous very friendly owner and we stayed in the Lilly Pilly Room which was great. We would highly recommend people stay there. You can also walk to the Beach and Shops. Very convenient location and price is good.
