We booked a cabin facing the sea. Modern and well equipped with the soundtrack of the Tasman sea in the background. Slept really well.

"A lovely log cabin in a good location ."

Excellent

Loved the coastal location and the design of the cabins to allow for privacy. A very quiet location.

The cabin was good but getting a little tired. Some of the windows did not shut properly without a push from the outside.
