Park and cafe opposite was good value and a nice place to relax.Ca. recommend Kiama as good value and we worth a visit.

There were a few things that the owner was able to deal with straight away in a calm and friendly manner - getting the garage door to open, replacing a light bulb and descaling the kettle. There is just one small thing I would have appreciated and that was a soap dish/holder in the shower as there is nowhere to put it at present. All in all a very relaxing stay with a wonderful view and the weather to enjoy it.

Beautiful view over the bay but a little too far out off Weymouth.
