Very quiet and great off-street parking. I found the heater in the lounge wasn't as warm as I would like it but being elderly this was probably due to my age.

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
The cabana accommodation was basic and of a low standard, we made the mistake of pre-paying, and would have walked away from the place had we not made that mistake. No air conditioning, shower and facilities for that room were well below standard. The owner was pleasant enough but seemed to resent us not booking direct with them.
