"the Retreat"
This is the second Xmas/New Year Period I have stayed at the Retreat, I just love the location of the property, the set out, the facilities, and the little enclosed backyard just love. The property was not as clean on arrival this year, and unfortunately only two satchels of dishwashing powder for a ten day stay.
