Our hosts at Garden City went above and beyond to provide us with early access to our unit so that we could prepare for a family funeral nearby. They were friendly and welcoming and made us feel at home.

Unit could do with a refresh but was suitable for our 2 night stay. Staff were lovely. Would be nice to get a top up of Milk on 2nd day. Only 4 chairs for dining table so with a family of 5 someone had to sit elsewhere to eat.
