I stayed Tusker lodge for 4 nights, the room was pleasant, clean and the bed very comfortable, as I I am a vegetarian I had the veggie breakfast this was very nice. great couple who run the lodge, its a few minute walk in to the town walk back is up hill so takes a little longer, great location, I would stay there again.

AVOID. Dirty. Mould.
Mould all over bathroom ceiling windows walls. Mould all over my window. States free parking but actually there is 3 tiny spaces which if more than one car so tight you can’t even get out or choice of paying for car park up steep hill unlit and not secure. I found owner wasn’t very friendly and they don’t clean your room daily and not any extras like toiletries etc. There is far better in this area without having to have a shared bathroom that’s dirty
