    Dave was the most exceptional host, he was super friendly, offered to pick us up from the ferry, showed us around the home with delight and had a genuine chat with us. Not only this, but he was really flexible with the check out time! Dave's home...

    Dave was so friendly and even picked us up from the ferry. The place was in a prime location with the bus stop just outside. The facilities were comfy and clean. I would happily stay here again.
