We had a lovely time away with our Sister and brother in law. The unit was immaculate and well equipt with everything we needed. Some essential cupboard items left that were appreciated and just added that extra touch. We stayed with another cpl ( family) and our only gripe being the 2 singles we pushed together to make a queen were very hard tho coversations with Mal he is considering a topper so we would also return. The other is wifi - NO wifi and think the property would benefit from that but then again Mal has offered the use of a wifi dongle for next time ao all in all very accomodating which is very appreciated. Fantastic relaxing little getaway, the men fished off the jetty just across the way! Will def go back :) ##### Meagan S.
