Well-equipped and bigger than the pictures imply
It's a spacious unit with a well-fitted out kitchen and other features (bbq, outdoor dining, shower equipment and more). Everything worked; it's spick and span, nice light, effective heating. It's conveniently located near a Hill Street IGA with a deli that means you really don't need to go out (but you can - though that's easier done for lunch mid-week in the winter).

No Ferry
First time we have been into this interesting area of Tassie. Great to have a washing machine ! The L E D lights were great in the middle of the night. While there was no internet we were able to access that at the Community Centre, and helped by the friendly ladies there. Victor gave us advise about where to go and what to see but we really did think there would be a ferry !!!

Duplex Unit 3
The duplex was comfortable and suited our needs. Excellent bed and bedding. Kitchen was missing tea towel, DW liquid and cloth but we had our own. Pretty garden and bbq area at front. We suggest the cleaner tidies up the info brochures and compendium be obvious. The decoration and added small touches need improvedment.
