We stayed for 2 nights to attend a wedding nearby and it suited my family perfectly. Lots of room for everyone to spread out. Appreciated the coffee and condiments available, nice touch. Very clean and comfortable.Wish we were holidaying for longer, would have loved to have time to use the kayaks and board games. Hope to be back again.

Plenty of room for a huge family. I will surely book this property again. We were only family of 4 and it felt empty because there is room for 2 and half family and the feel of being in the 80s.Loves it

Working bee

We stayed at the Crab Pot whilst working to clear our mother's house out to prepare it for sale. The Crab Pot was clean, accessible and roomy - all important factors for a large group of adults. We had a great time, and the Crab Pot provided us with welcome respite at the end of each hard working day.

Amazing

Absolutely beautiful house. So much to keep kids occupied. Overall just amazing. And the best part was NO internet for the kids so they would actually be kids again (100% winner).
