Amazing stay and great service from all staff! The room was comfortable, very clean and the view was lovely, of the gardens and the lake, so peaceful. The food at the bar is amazing too - the full restaurant is opening soon which will probably have great food too! The bed was really comfortable and they also had Netflix which was handy! The area is beautiful - such great beaches and views. 10/10

Great Motel with Pet facilities - Spotless!!!
Great place to stay. Exceptionally clean and tidy. Staff nice. Rooms comfortable. It was the first time we have taken our little dog on a log road trip with no caravan so was worried about staying in a pet room, but I have to say it was a cracking resort and the room was tidy!

Very clean place and tidy ,staff were very friendly and helpful but I wish the fridge in the room kept our things colder and had a freezer and the room didn't have a smoke detector I noticed and a safe to keep valuables safe so I got a bit paranoid about keeping any valuable in but other wise what a nice place to stay

Well situated and layout great a bonus was a very quiet fridge and very little road noise. I missed the biscuits, spa and steam room out of order, but the gardens are beautiful. Will stay again next time I’m travelling.
