What guests are saying

"Five star view, generally what people go for. The outdoor toilets looked clean and interesting but locked up. Just to be diverted through a bistro and bar environment we didn’t want or need. Charged $5 a person ok but that’s really just for a view and a park. Worth going only on a clear day and not "
