Stayed for 9 days, overall was pleasant and relaxing. Brought a greyhound along, was easy, the resident dog Watson is very friendly and pays an occasional visit. There is no fencing, but the boundaries are sufficient to keep a dog where you want to, the street / location is quiet. The studio was clean and fresh. I would say this is the better launchpad into the busier parts of Lennox, Bryon, Ballina, and the various beaches very close by.
