Loved the location, walking paths, easy walk to the pub, beach, coffee shops, takeaway. The camp kitchen was great and also the general facilities. Our cabin was fairly clean, only a couple of bugs found but we were missing a clothes airer that all other cabins appeared to have and would have been handy for washing/towels.

It was a serene space. We were in walking distance to north wall and the beach where we saw dolphins and lizards. The kids loved the bouncy pad, games room and the pool! The Waterview Cabin was lovely but the view, spectacular. The reflection of the sunrise on the water and the actual sunset right from our balcony, amazing. The live music from the Shawsy across the water was lovely l, we could just hear it as we read and drew in the lounge, after our relaxing dinner cooked in the barbeque. A great way to spend my birthday weekend!
