    The cottages were very fantastic. Plenty of room; they had everything we needed. The view of the mountain, wildlife at our front door and wood fire were all features we enjoyed. The pick up and drop off to/from the restaurant was unexpected but...

    Staff are lovely as usual especially in Parker Street project and rooms service. Room is comfortable. Lounge chairs are much more comfortable than those in the renovated rooms. Breakfast is good and plentiful but would like a piece of fruit...
