Good Stay at the Estate

fun challenges convenient drive dog friendly
The short drive to Ellie beach was quite convenient. I liked that the hotel is dog friendly.
I found the room a bit noisy because of creaky floorboards. doing a jumping exercise regime at 6:30 in the morning woke me. This noise was directly above my room.
