    Beautiful facility from the 1800's I believe. The decor is beautiful and the room is very comfortable. There are two floors in the main house so if you can't carry luggage upstairs make sure you get a main floor or one of the garden suites. Lovely prepared breakfast in the morning. They offer a free drink if you want one. We had eggs Florentine and a big mixed breakfast. The neighborhood is great!

    The location of the apartment was in very close proximity to the Gulf Harbour Marina. We loved the size of the apartment it was huge and had everything we needed for just myself and my daughter. The bed was extremely comfortable. We loved that the property was across the road from a lake that was regularly frequented by some of the locals and their remote controlled boats. Great views from the lounge area. Michelle was a lovely host.
