DESCRIPTION:
Listen to the sound of the surf and sea pounding on the Pancake Rocks. Sealed roads and contoured land, gives privacy and shelter to this lovely large coastal camp which appears to be well drained, even in winter. There is a fully equipped electric kitchen, and a gas one available for large groups. Between them is the dining/social room. An alternative is the al fresco covered dining area off these rooms. The ablutions are roomy, tiled and immaculate with a good disability suite. There is a laundry and a sometimes much needed drying room. Walking distance to the local pub, with shopping just up the road, and eating places nearby. Lots to see and do, this is a great base to explore the spectacular West Coast, learn to surf, or try out a paddleboard. No pets please. Your friendly, helpful hosts are Craig and Sue. Tent sites are $17 per adult, and $8 for children, powered are $20 for adults and $9 for the kids.
