    “Alfresco lodge was lovely.”

    When we arrived it was clean and our stay was relaxed and comfy. I did feel like it lacked a few things to make it more welcoming lamps, rugs and welcome pack. Over all though we enjoyed our time there. Great place for a family. It's in a good area not far from places to visit. The site although quite big was lovely and quite and anyone we met was friendly.
