Not what it is cracked up to be
This unit was below the standard it was advertised as.The bed was hard and smelled of smoke. The bathroom has been renovated but the towels were old, thin and smelly. It all had an acrid smokey smell. Free parking and easy check-in was good.

Can do better
Has potential to be cute and comfy but unfortunately missed the note as the accommodation needs more modern renovation, fresher kitchen utensils, refurbishment of the floors and more heaters.

Not a good stay
So much potential but definitely in need of refurbishing. Very 1970s. Many things were of poor quality or not working well.

It was a cozy little place that had everything I needed. Check in was a breeze and it’s just a short stroll to the nearest beach. It was well signed from the main highway as well.

nothing Flash but good Homely Place
Was comfortable with walking distance to the beach
Caretaker was friendly and accommodating.
Unit appears to be setup for disabled clients but fails with features
Unit needs some maintenance and other features looked at
1. Door lock doesn't work properly
2. Range hood light did not work.
3. Only 1 light over the kitchen bench worked.
4. Shower is huge but needs a Grab rail on the wall for support and peace of mind
5. Toilet is positioned in the middle of the bathroom ( 1.8M wide ) and the the Grab rails fitted are way too far to far away from the toilet to be of any assistance for a disabled or elderly persons.( mounted on side walls )
Better Grab rail systems are available to suit these situations
Fly screen wire in bathroom needs replacing
Shower head system needs work
A cosy , self contained unit for the traveler who doesn't mind it being quaint

Great location to visit sites for this part of Tas
Able to come and go freely. We had a separate dine in kitchen. Enough space to plan next days events and itinerary from our wish list. Just outdoors you can see the ocean and an outdoor setting.

Good place to rest for the night
Easy to find location. As we were unloading, we were greeted by the site manager who was there to answer questions and make sure we had everything needed. As we only needed a place to rest at night, we were extremely happy with the accommodation. Working kitchen with microwave, fridge, kettle, sink and utensils. Large shower area with shower supplies. Quiet area.

Clean, comfortable accommodation
Spacious unit compared to most we have stayed in with a great outside deck. Clean and comfortable, easy check in process and friendly staff. As we were in middle unit we did get some noise from units each side but it was not excessive and we would stay here again

Comfortable, clean and friendly
We were on a flying visit and this suited us well the host was friendly, showed us to our cottage explained the appliances and was a great help in regard to the local eateries.
The rooms were spotless, some items a little dated but everything was clean and in working order.
