Janet
This is an excellent retreat for a big group of friends . Very helpful manager who communicated well with me. Well equipped, beds very comfortable. Lots of firewood and a nice big fire. We enjoyed long beach walks both north and south. You need to drive (or bicycle) down to the coast as it is 4-5km which was the only disadvantage for us.. If you really need to use your phone while having a break away, there is very good Spark coverage at the property.
