Carole is lovely…made us and our dog Dexter very welcome. ##### Fiona Stayed 4 nights in Jan 2024 Verified ### 6/10 Okay #### Duncan Nov 8, 2024 Disliked: Staff & service #### Ok but needs modernising Location of the motel is very good. The site is large and has some scenic views from the grassed communal area but not from the cabins. The cabins are very dated, they need new kitchens, modern furniture and a lick of paint. The beds were very comfortable and shower has good water pressure, the cabins had been cleaned well. On reflection its very expensive for what you get in reality. The spa pool and the swimming pool were dirty so we did not use them. ##### Duncan Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2024 Verified ### 10/10 Excellent #### Greg Feb 15, 2026 Liked: Cleanliness, amenities, property conditions & facilities Absolutely fantastic stay.
