“The chalets and self-contained villas here certainly suggest an interesting option for families, and the Swiss village architecture creates a unique atmosphere; proximity to Launceston is another definite advantage. However, some areas are showing their age, with maintenance needs apparent, which may impact the overall experience. For some, the location and facilities will outweigh those concerns.”
