The place is well appointed and comfortable, and the rooms lovely- although the loft room's conversion from an open patio is a little obvious and a bit open for my liking - although my young son loved having his own space up there with a mini bathroom and a daybed for reading and relaxing. As always, Marloth Park with its unspoiled bush setting was a joy and a balm for the soul, and the fact that the river is only a few minutes walk away is a real bonus. We enjoyed sunset strolls along the bank listening to the fish eagles' calls.
