Our group of 3 had a very comfortable stay in a 1 bedroom unit. It was reasonably spacious with a kitchenette. There is a guest laundry available and is a short walk to some shops and restaurants and nearby a pub, supermarket and wineries. Staff were helpful and friendly.

Room was great, comfortable. Biggest problem was the parking with no order or set parks for each unit. We would come back and there would be no free parking spaces. Allotting a park for each unit would be the sensible thing to do. We had to cut some of our activities short so we could get back early to secure a park. We are elderly, 76yrs and 80yrs old so parking on the street was not an option. Parking or lack of, kind of spoilt all the good things about the facility.
