So convenient and close to everything
With our three kids it's always pot luck selecting a motel when you haven't been there before. We weren't sure whether they would have enough to do - well they had plenty to occupy their time.
The open space was great to play games and stretch their legs. We were literally 5 minutes to the beach and the Bluff headland. Walking, Fishing, Bike track, Don River Railway, the Maritime Museum and heaps more.
We had a great time and will be back.

The kids just loved the location
We cam down for the summer bike carnivals. We followed the carnivals from Latrobe, Devonport and Burnie and our motel location was jsut perfect.
The guys could go out each morning and take flat rides or get into some tuff stuff towards Paloona Dam and Sheffield. The scenery was just great.
Our accommodation was comfortable, quite and restful. We will be back next year - proably with a few more riders.
