Our stay at Hillside Haven was perfect in everyway. Couldnt fault it. We were there for two nights and enjoyed every minute of it. Peaceful surroundings, local shops and restaurants are literally a minute away which was very handy and hottub experience was a big plus during they preheated it before our arrival. Tracey was very accomodating and was just a call away. Definitely recommend the place and would go back with a heartbeat.
