Sandy feet Retreat
This place was a good place to stay for our extended family. Although the kitchen is small the outdoor space is good and made managing meals easy. we did find there was a lack of storage space and the pantry was very full - not sure if this was left by others or the owners but we ahd rearrange things to crate space both in kitchen and bedrooms. It is well located though close to shops and the river.
