Thanks for your lovely review. The whole of Russell is all on tank water, not just us. There is no town supply.

Amazing Red Shed

Stayed for 8 nights. Amazing property with everything you could ask for for a very comfortable stay. Private outside space is great and only a stroll to all the bars and eateries. Beautiful Long Beach is a short walk away. We hope we can get back very soon.
