It was a lovely short getaway in a peaceful location.
Pros:

The property was quiet and in a lovely location and I enjoyed having access to Foxtel. My grandchildren would love the duck pond and playground on the island. It is located across from a grassed area and river which is lovely to walk along. We stayed here for the football and it was an easy enjoyable walk to GMHBA stadium.

Cons:

I would have liked the WIFI to be included. I didn't realise you had to pay for this separately and by the time I realised it was too late.
