8.2/10 Very Good! (41 reviews)
The property was quite a distance from the main attractions. I am used to walking but for some it might be too much. The breakfast was adequate but served too late for the start of many ofbthe trips which were at least a half hours walk away. If they had opened up an hour earlier say at 7am it would have been a lot better.
