In the cabin, you will find a large living-dining room with a feature wall of nautical charts and pictures of underwater fauna and flora, a large table, a fold-out couch, a single bed and a rocking-chair. A selection of DVDs, board games and books is provided. The bedroom is spacious. In a building close by, you will find a fully-equipped kitchen, a laundry room and a bathroom with both a shower and a clawed bathtub, a toilet and a sink. We can provide a portacot and other baby equipment if required.
There is a reserve and play ground directly behind the cabin, accessible through the back gate. Further back up the hill there are many tracks, suitable for walking and mountain biking. The public pool is a very short walk away. The rugby field is on the next block. The main street is 3 blocks down. Takeaway food outlets, bars and restaurants are within walking distance.
