There is nothing fancy about this gym, but that's one of things I like about it. You don't need to wear the latest gear, or put on your make up to go there. The staff and class teachers are friendly and welcoming. The creche ladies are wonderful. The coffee is actually very good. There are no contracts so you can cancel or put your membership on hold any time.

Approximate cost: $20 a week

Tunzafun is my son's favourite place in the whole world. We have been there many times. Often there is one or two machines not working which is frustrating, but the staff are always happy to help if you have any problems or questions.

Approximate cost: $20

Owner of business was friendly and promptly replied to all of my emails. He found a family quite close to our home, who cared for our dog even better than we do! Our dog was treated like a pampered member of the family. The peace of mind this gave us while we were away was brilliant. I know our dog would have been extremely distressed if we left her in a kennel. This service is such a brilliant alternative to a kennel, I would recommend it to anyone.

Approximate cost: $35 a day

This is a new service within the new Cedar College Sports Centre. There are currently 3 exercise classes available each week: Circuit Class on Tues nights, Strength and Relaxation on Thurs nights and Anything Goes class on Sat am. You couldn't ask to meet a nicer person than the girl who runs the classes, and she is also very knowledgeable. Lessons are affordable and atmosphere is relaxed and friendly. Gym area and personal training also available. Would recommend this service.

Approximate cost: $6 a class

Great nurturing environment. Dedicated teachers. Reception to year 12 so children do not need to change schools at all which is brilliant. Quite affordable as far as private schools go. I would recommend this school to others.

I was excited about trying this service which had any tradesperson you wanted within the one organization. I thought there would be some security and quality assurance, being a big organization. Then I was wary when they said they won't come out to do a quote, they will just come and do the work, and charge for the time they are here, and materials used. They said others who gave quotes factored the cost of the quote into the price, and it was cheaper to go with the Mott Group and just pay for the work done. I wasn't sure, but thought I'd give them a go, as I wanted the job done soon. I had a carpenter come out to replace some of the wooden frame around a window that was cracking. The wood was replaced, and the carpenter painted over the wood he used. Within about 8 weeks, the exact same problem occurred with the new wood. Mott group apparently guarantees it's work, so I got the guy to come out again. He said, well, you didn't want it to cost too much, so I did such and such, what you actually need is a heap more work done and it's going to cost hundreds of dollars extra. At this point my chin hit the floor. Somehow it was my fault that it wasn't fixed properly??? If the work was never going to fix the problem, how come this is the only option I was given when the guy came out in the first place? I would have to be stupid to give these guys who showed me they can't do a job properly, hundreds of dollars more to do it again.

My family orders Chinese food to be delivered from this take-away nearly every single week. We have found it to be very good value. My favourite items are the Chicken with Cashew Nuts, the spring rolls and the fried rice. They also do nice burgers with the lot, yiros and fish and chips. There is enough variety that everyone in the family can choose something they really like. If you become a regular customer, they give you a customer number so you don't have to tell them your name, address etc. each time which speeds up ordering. We have tried a few others who home deliver and I think this is the best in the area.

Approximate cost: $8.50

Owner and staff go out of their way to make you feel at home. Food and coffee is consistently excellent. I particularly like the chicken caesar salad. Great value for money too. Very relaxing to sit in the outside area and look at the lake and birds. Would be nice if they become licensed to sell alcohol in the future as a glass of wine would top things off perfectly :)

Approximate cost: $15

The Chicken is delicious and juicy, and the chips are crispy. In my opinion, the best chicken and chip shop in the area.
