Great place and very good bed and amenities. I had an uninterrupted 12 hour sleep so enough said. Also enjoyed the ample undercover parking that I really needed. $2 donation for washing machines to get some much needed clothes washing done.
Had a great stay in a very peaceful, quiet location with great hosts. Could have easily stayed a week!

One of our favorite hidden gems in Australia. We stayed with Ron and Leanda in February, 2018 during a road trip from Sydney to Melbourne along the coast. They epitomized the famous Aussie hospitality. We've much of the world left to see, but I hope we get to see them one more time.
