Well appointed cabin in grassy caravan park
We were in a nicely appointed cabin but it had no bathroom, however the amenities block was just next door. Reasonably priced. Really well stocked kitchen - plug-in hot plates, microwave, cooking utensils, etc. Comfy bed with PowerPoints on both sides, which was a plus

Happy with our stay of 3 nights. Our host Claire was very professional with organising our stay for a family of 4, her communication level was outstanding and she had made us feel very welcome and comfortable. The premises and buildings were a little outdated and rundown and are in need of some TLC. Overall for the price we paid and the quiet time that we had in a lovely nature corridor with a healthy eco system. The kids had fun fishing on the lakes pontoon with catching fish and playing around the green grass. Overall we could return one day for another quick stay over.

Air-conditioned cabin not suitable for elderly or people with mobility problems. Reception accessed by external double flight of stairs, not always manned - a phone number on wall outside, in case of emergencies. Portable, milk-crate type steps to the cabin. The air-conditioned cabin did not go below 32 degrees until the outside temperature fell at night. Insect screen on window was damaged, no screens on sliding door entry.

Queen ensuite van was not up to standard. Amenities required further cleaning and appliances needed to be checked to ensure they were operational. The bed was confortable the rest of the van wasnt. When these concerns were raised the staff were wonderful.

The accommodation is small and basic but it's all I needed. The only downside of this place is the other travellers... The trailer I stayed in was 2 units and the other unit was full of men who talked and drank late and then were up vomiting in front of mine from the early hours of the morning. Not a whole lot of sleep was had due to this.

Photos do not represent the property, this campsite is more for fruit pickers who live on site who constantly spit. Cabin had cockroaches in but no fly spray Stayed for 2 out of 7 nights. Wouldn’t recommend at all. Only positive was the toilets were clean but you could hear constantly hear the sound of people clearing their throats and spitting
