Lovely motel
This is a great motel on the edge of town. Staff are super friendly (and they went out of their way to help us with a flat battery) Super clean, recently renovated, with everything you need (very easy to self cater if you prefer to eat in).

Was pleasantly surprise how clean and fresh the rooms look. There was ample size in my room to move around and be comfortable and the bathroom was quite large. We had a trailer with us so it was nice we could park out on the road but park in a spot that I could see it from our room.

Lovely spot next to the lake.
The rooms were clean and tidy but the toilets, tap over the basin and electric jug needed repairing.
The person managing the property was very cheerful and helpful.
