Cheryl Australia

When we arrived after a long drive, I was shown to the unit and given some milk and the door key; a nice welcome. The unit was fairly basic, but clean and functional, and everything worked ok. We only stayed one night but it would be a good place to spend several if staying in the area longer.

Excellent location for trips to the surrounding area. Very good facilities. Excellent value for money!
