The enclosed garden boasts a patio with furniture for an evening of al fresco dining, as well as a swing seat where you can enjoy your morning coffee, an extendable washing line and beautiful flower beds.

Great stay at Misty Moon. I had to check the bedding labels to see where I could buy it for home. Super comfy. Loved the welcome pack. Thank you.

Close enough to walk into town (20-30 mins) but also far enough away from all the crowds. Bus stop to town on the street opposite. Misty Moon is very well equipped and perfect for relaxing after a busy day. Would definitely recommend Misty Moon to others.
