Beach Huts Middleton

Beach Huts Middleton

10/10 Excellent
"Great place to stay, very relaxing and quiet. We went for a rock and roll weekend which was held in Victor Harbour but staying just outside in Middleton was also a convenient place to stay. There is a tennis court and a communal village hut if you are going with friends like we did. All the huts are unique so will fit all types of requirements. Middleton as lots of eateries for breakfast and lunch if required. We will definitely come back again."
