I daresay that Boatshed on Park is a great venue (as all the other reviews demonstrate) for a couple of surfies in SUMMER. Future guests need to be aware that the actual space is tiny. Not a problem if you can go out onto the lovely deck overlooking Park Beach but it was a bitter cold winter's day when we arrived and we didn't fancy hanging in such a tiny room There is no running water (sink or wash basin) in the room. Guests are asked not to wash up but to leave dishes for the hosts to do outside. Guests have to negotiate quite a few steps to get to the very nice bathroom (but a load of washing will cost you $10) . There didn't seem to be anyone home when we arrived but check in details had been sent. But, our hearts sunk when we saw the size of the room. We had family staying at a local venue so we were able to go and spend time with them. But the last straw was when we came home after a meal at the local pub to find the rattling, noisy heat pump wasn't working, it was blowing out cold air and vacillated between 23 degrees and 13 degrees. Again there seemed to be no one there to tell but, we had had enough and decided to head for the comforts of home which wasn't too far a drive. I have a rheumatic condition and must be warm at night. Disappointed but, as I say it's probably a great summer stay. On the plus side, Karyl provides some lovely goodies in the fridge like fresh milk, muffins and butter which we did enjoy.
