Photos don’t do the place justice

What a lovely place to stay. Had the best time on Moreton and the house was a big part of that. The photos don’t do the place justice as it’s so much better in person. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!

Awesome place to stay! The house was clean and tidy, and equipt with everything we needed. We loved the set-up of the house. Lovely quiet part of the island with lovely locals. Mosquito coils a must at that end of the Island.. Sean was helpful and great to communicate with prior to our stay. We had a great time staying at Umpys Humpy. We will definitely be booking again! Thank you Sean!
