  • "The place is OK"

    21 December 2015

    "Blue Sky Mining was an okay place to stay. Not great, but not bad. It seems like there is too much staff, and subsequently they look bored and is very slow. There are not any water taps in the camping area, and they don't allow electricity leads from the cabins 5metres away. The two new bathrooms are nice, except that no broom/squeegee is provided to dry the open plan floor. Nice swimming pools."

    12 January 2009

    "The owners friendly. The cleaning services fantastic.A couple of things they might consider adding are mirrors to rooms/bathrooms, clothes horses for wet towels etc, and of course, the mattresses need changing. They are made of sponge and do not offer support at all. I had to sleep on the floor to enjoy a proper night's sleep.For the rest, I enjoyed a wonderful stay and my children did not want to come back home.Thank you for everything."
