Luckily, we got upgraded to another property in Penneshaw which is only 2 minutes drive to the ferry. This property is much bigger and a lot nicer. We love the smart TV that allows us to logon to our Netflix account. The kitchen has everything we need for cooking our breakfast. Very happy with the stay."
