    Excellent location, nice clean and inviting was an ideal couples retreat for a quiet weekend away. Can't comment on staff as they left you alone, but everything was there on arrival and everywhere was nice and clean.

    Shepherds huts were "top notch" with all necessary facilities and comforts. The verandas were spacious and well appointed and ideal for both our canine visitor (who enjoyed herself enormously) and our evening BBQ. Ideal location with a difference...
