Loved this little upstairs apartment. Warm and Cosy. Perfect facilities for our family group, 4 adults and 1 infant. Baby gate for stairs was great. Julie was super attentive to our needs during our stay. Would stay again.

The price, for a perfectly functional and comfortable stay. Was especially happy thinking we were all in one room to find the kids had the lounge we had a room. It might not be the flashest but it was warm, comfy and affordable.

A special place to get away, tucked away amongst ferns. Great for a couple or small family. The beds were super comfy and the loft is such a fun space for children.The deck is a perfect spot to unwind and look out to the water.

We had a family apartment which was bigger than we needed, but it was the only room available. The loft style would be excellent for families with older children - quite a unique layout.
