Have had remedial massage, osteo and naturopathy treatments at this clinic. The cost is as expected and comparable to other clinics. The staff are fantastic, from the Receptionist to the practitioners. Would highly recommend. Wish they also had clinical pilates but unfortunately there isn't enough room.

This is a traditional guesthouse so not all rooms have private ensuites. We did. The room was huge with high ceilings and lots of natural light, and the bathroom was a decent size. Room was a bit dusty (incl dead fly on the window ledge) but the bathroom was very clean. Room was serviced daily.

The house needs renovation but could be called 'shabby chic'. Bedding was comfortable. Breakfast was included in the price but was very basic toast and cereal kind of thing. The house has a huge dining room and outdoor area but this is only utilised for breakfast and even though there is a bar in the dining room is closed after 5pm.

I didn't sleep well because I could hear the other guests going in and out of the shared bathrooms in the hallways - closing the doors loudly instead of being considerate of others in the middle of the night. On the morning of check-out we discovered no hot water and couldn't shower. I had to notify the night manager of the problem - apparently no other guests had told them. As a result we had to change our plans for the morning and wait for the problem to be fixed.

The room cost $250 per night with a minimum 2 night stay because we stayed over the Cup Weekend.

Having said all of this, I would actually stay again because I love old architecture, there was a stunning first floor balcony running along the front of the building with great outdoor furniture to enjoy the evenings, a pool and peaceful BBQ area and the staff were really really nice.

We went on a Saturday night which has a two course minimum for $52. The atmosphere was inviting and intimate. Even though there were groups having dinner and some families with tweens, this didn't detract from the atmosphere for couples having romantic dinners. I don't know how but it worked.

The service fantastic - quick, professional, friendly but not at all intrusive. I had the duo of pork (not the trio listed in their on-line menu) and it was superb - the pork belly was probably the best I have ever had. My guest had the Ocean Trout which was 'nice'. Desert of Fig & Macadamia Pudding for me was melt in the mouth. Well worth the cost for the quality of the food, the service and the atmosphere. We will defnitely be back when visiting the coast.

Approximate cost: $26

The best facial I've had in a long time. Therapist by the name of Irena has the best technique. Staff are warm, welcoming and know their products.

I have been shopping at Cannings since it first opened and have tried a range of their products. Everything purchased has been fantastic. It is more expensive than supermarkets and some other suburban butchers the quality is well worth it. The eye fillet purchased didn't shrink in the pan when cooked so I actually bought too much! Same goes for the salmon. The gourmet sausages are the only ones my kids will eat. While I'm writing this review I'm actually having breakfast made with some of Canning's bacon. It tastes like no other bacon and is the best i've ever had.
