This place has been in the same family's hands since the 1950's when it was built. The latest generation is carrying on the tradition of hosting and the property has been substantially refurbished along the way. We stayed in one of the ground floor units which faced the games room and washing room. There is a hint of 1950's camping ground about the place and I could imagine that it could get noisy in the Summer with the swimming pool and games room and lots of kids running round.
However, it was not whilst we were there and was in fact very quiet and we had a nice,relaxing stay. Our unit was a one bed with a separate bedroom and bathroom which all looked very new. Fresh, clean linen a basic kitchen which was missing a dishwasher and oven but where you could cook up a basic breakfast or microwave a ready made dinner. We spent very little time in the unit but it was pleasant to come back and be able to read the paper and look out at the gardens, which were very well established with some nice planting and trees and flowers and kept very tidy.
Friendly, helpful hosts and very reasonably priced I thought, so I would recommend and would return, out of season.
Would be an excellent spot for a family break in Summer, just mind the road for the little ones as there are no gates and the property is right on the main street, which is busy!
Room Tip: Choose a room away from the road towards the back of the property

Thanks for taking the time to write your thoughts. We are pleased you enjoyed the room and the lovely garden surroundings. Yes indeed it has now been in the same family for 2 generations of care; however my parents are not as old as you think! They started the motel in 1969 - recently it has undergone an extensive makeover. The hard work and expense was rewarded with a Qualmark “4 Star Plus” Rating and now we think we are pretty modern and shiny!! Summer can be busy for the kids with all the facilities, heated pool, spa, games room, playground etc... But if the kids are happy then Mum & Dad can relax in the hammock under the palm tree!
See you again soon Cheers Mark
