Ron the manager was excellent. We extended our stay and upgraded to the stables….he organised his team to move all our stuff into the new room and it was ready by 1030. The artesian outdoor bath tubs were a fantastic surprise. Perfectly located….been travelling for 2 weeks and this was best place we stayed.
