Wonderful different place to stay. Small compact and impeccable. Comprehensive personalised checkin, comfortable bed and great little toilet. Very well appointed and loved the breakfast options in the the truck which included fresh bread, free range eggs, delicious jam, cereals milk tea and coffee. If youve ever wanted to stay in a house truck then stay here. Its very cool.
Cheers
We had a blast. As it was simple and that's what we needed coming from the hustle and bustle of the city life. Looking at the stars at night and smelling the fresh air was a lovely highlight along with walking the Llamas, visiting the seashore, seeing the seals and just cooking outdoors. Just what the doctor ordered. Looking forward to doing it again.
