I should've looked more closely @ Expedia's description, in particular but no limited to the fact that the washroom facilities were shared; that might’ve been a deciding factor to go somewhere else. I don't normally carry towels with me & although i did park along spare shampoo & soap items, i didnt discover that they were required until after i arrived @ the community shower building; it was my 2nd trip there after realising the need for a towel of which the cront entry woman 👩 was able to provide. Good on her & that her descriptive directions to the local restaurant waa good as was the selection. Good on her also, for her friendly attitude

Our stay in the Hunters Hut was fine. It was compact with facilities such as fridge, toaster and kettle provided but strangly no cups. The bed was comfy.
The shared kitchen was equipped with hot plates and microwave. There were were pots pans and some cutlery but no spoons at all.
It was a good place to stay one night before catching the ferry.

Toilets and shower about 10 paces from our cabin 9.. All clean and tidy. Cabin had motoring theme and decor continued into front area. Watch out for ceiling beamon top bunk bed. It's a knockout.

Hunters hut was a great value

The desk staff were very friendly and asked specifically if we needed linens, utensils, cookware, WiFi etc. There was also a community board with food recommendations. The kitchen was clean and comfortable. We stayed in the hunters hut and it was small but comfortable and we stayed warm all night.

Different from website pictures

Room was different than all the pictures on the website, we stayed in the “hunters hut”. Was allowed to check in a bit early so that was very nice. Booking said nothing about linens not included so that was a surprise. Overall property was clean and organized.

Cheap and cheerful! Quirky place with personality and in a lovely location. Super friendly staff, very accommodating of changed dates and times. There are a lot of activities in the area and it is a beautiful place. If you are wanting budget accommodation to explore the area this is for you. If you are waiting for the ferry grab a coffee from the aquarium Ecoworld.

close to function we were attending

cold and draughty, (excessive moisture on windows and walls) no clean towels, coffee, tea, milk etc. supplied each day. Had to use electrical appliances separately as would trip off circuit breaker and cut off power if turned on to many appliances. It was like staying in a large caravan.
Also no smoke alarm in bedroom only one lying upside down on shelf in kitchen.

Basic but clean and quiet

I stayed in a basic cabin. The bed was comfortable. Only cold water in room, tiny sink. The jug doesn't fit under the tap to fill it. Old noisy fan heater. Quiet, pleasant grounds. Shared kitchen was spartan. Nothing provided. No rubbish bin inside kitchen. You get one pot one plate etc in a kitchen bin. Only one fridge working so it was hard to find space in it. Shower was good. Everything clean, but this is at the most basic end of cabin accommodation.
