2.5/5
We nearly didn't visit, as the prices put us off, but it was worth going to see the beautiful glowworms.
However, we were there on a Saturday and it was too busy, too rushed and without respect, a disappointment.

4.5/5
We spent 3-4 hours here by the picturesque lake fishing fro our own salmon!
All the equipment is provided, you just pay for what you catch. We got 2 beautiful fish and had them smoked.

4.5/5
Although busy with the Caravan Club when we stayed, this is a very scenic campsite with all amenities.
Several short pleasant walks lead to waterfalls.

5.0/5
We spent a couple of days touring the cellar doors for free tastings - a real treat.
Most are free. You can hire bikes for $25pp a day or just drive.

4.0/5
A great place to stop before/after touring the wineries.
Right on the beach with few amenities but an idyllic spot with cliff walk to Monkey Bay.
