We stayed in Devon, it was slightly overpriced for the condition. The sliding door lock needs repair, cupboard door in front of the fridge is starting to come off it hinges, curtains were in poor condition and we killed several spiders inside the room. On a brighter side the surroundings and scenery was just amazing from the deck and spa.

Beautiful place! Quiet, tranquil. Great food in the restaurant. Comfy bed and large room. Spa bath looking over the bush was amazing

The property was different, however, it is too far into the forest, especially if a bushfire occurred.

Loved it how we walked in and the heater was already on. ( was a tad bit cold outside so this was a lovely touch!) Very comfortable couch and beds had the most enjoyable stay, very relaxing.

The setting is beautiful and the cabins are a great size and really clean however the bathrooms are very outdated. We had the birth of our grandchild sooner than expected so had to return home and asked if we could have a refund for our second night stay but this was declined in a very negative manner. The way in which the situation was dealt with has left a very negative impression. We will never return to this property again and would not recommend it. What a shame their customer service let it down.

Thank you for your feedback, We would love to point out that we could not give a refund because you were within our cancellation policy when you phoned to tell us about your daughter having her child. However, we were happy enough to offer you a different date/ alter your stay but unfortunately that you didn’t want to change. We have very clear cancellation policy on our booking web page when booking your stay and we are very sorry if this was unclear. We respect your dilemma, but we could not make any changes further your booking due to the policy. Regards, Management,

The cabins are cosy, warm and inviting. The staff are super friendly and helpful. A charming place to stay although care must be taken on the 8km gravel road drive into the resort. The road is narrow and windy.
