+ I loved the location - the boat was clean, comfortable and well equipped. Milk, tea coffee and cakes were provided. The beds were comfortable. The hosts were very helpful and explained everything to us.
− The instructions on how to find the boat need improving. We had no idea that we had to walk to the end of the jetty and get a water taxi in order to get on the boat.
