I loved every bit of the bus as it’s completely quirky , it was one of the highlights of our trip , a one of a kind experience sleeping on a bus with all the comforts of home. Great bathroom and comfy bed! I The kitchen was fully equipped with coffee tea sugar and milk! Fridge toaster kettle and microwave all functional, and a Griller on deck which would have been ideal for a barbecue dinner. Our morning was a lovely time on the deck , having coffee and cookies included in the rent, and we brought our own breakfast favorites as well , so it was a chill morning of binging. I would definitely come back here to rest and relax , walk to the beach nearby. The bus truly has the comforts of home lovingly put together in a wonderful piece of art! And…. Thank you for the hospitality!

The location of the holiday park, good area with the playground & beach a walk away. The cabin we booked was close to the bathroom, kitchen & saltwater pool 🩵 (a favorite of ours) easy for supervision when you have little ones. The atmosphere was welcoming & friendly. Very clean & well run you can tell they take very good care of the place. The hospitality was fabulous 10/10.

We had a lovely stay, and will definitely be back. Clean and tidy, perfect for a small family as it has everything you need without a heap of 'stuff' that kids like to forage through....we like the minimalist design, which makes for any easy clean up. Easy stroll to the kids playground and Foxton beach. Amazing shower, nice and big and good comfy beds. This place is well set up.
