Absolutely Perfect

Perfect little home away from home for our family. Our children had a 4 day netball tournament so we had a very hectic schedule. It was so nice to be able to come home to comfy beds, plenty of room and loads of outdoor area for the children to play,climb the tree and even meet the doggie next door. Our neighbours in the next unit were also playing in the same division at the netball tournament, so we got to make some new friends. We loved having the cafe just around the corner for morning coffees. Great location and so central to everywhere we needed to go. Thank you so much Ros, we didn’t need for anything. We will definitely be rebooking for next years tournament as soon as we find out the dates.
