We had the best two nights at Apple Mount Retreat. We stayed during the heatwave and barely left the grounds, spending our days relaxing by the beautiful pool and our evenings barbecuing and unwinding in the hot tub.The pods were spotlessly clean and beautifully thought out, with everything you could possibly need included. The bed was incredibly comfortable and we both slept so well. The shower was also lovely and spacious.Debbie was so kind and helpful and couldn’t have done more for us. She had our hot tub heated and ready for our arrival, showed us around, and explained how everything worked. She even brought ice creams round to us by the pool when it was really hot, which was very much appreciated.We honestly could have stayed much longer and I already can’t wait to go back. Such a wonderful find.
