We loved staying in this family bach. It was well equipped and very comfy. The only ‘blip’ was the bunk room door not opening and given it was a very hot week, it was stuffy sleeping in that room. The outside garage with its frig freezer was great plus the hosts willingness to share furniture etc in it. All in all a great stay.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts with us. We are glad to hear you enjoyed the family bach and found it well equipped and comfortable. We appreciate you mentioning the bunk room door and understand how the warm weather would have made this more noticeable. Our local manager has been advised so this can be looked into. It is great to hear the extra space in the garage and the items available for use were helpful during your stay. We value you choosing to stay with us and would be pleased to welcome you back again.
