Wonderful place to stay

Very well appointed and well presented bach. Great location close to amenities, shops and the park. Excellent off street parking, plenty of room for the boat. Comfortable beds and linen, new washing machine, dishwasher and excellent shower; the Bach had everything we needed. Would definitely recommend.

Lovely property. Very handy to all amenities. A few more kids game, books, maybe some outdoor sports equipment i.e. soccer ball would be our only criticism.
