Clean and cosy shack in Adventure Bay

The accommodation at Shack on Francis is delightful. Warm and cosy with everything you need. Accommodation was very clean and owner has tastefully furnished this property. Ideally located in Adventure Bay. We even had a visit from the white wallaby. Highly recommend and would stay here again.
