Retro Revival
Great Retro space, with us feeling like our teenage time back in the 70’s. Our parents had some of this Retro furniture! But with a modern kitchen & bathroom. Very comfortable & cosy with the heating on. We really enjoyed our stay.

Great 70s feel
Lovely location with a fun 70’s feel but mod cons.
We loved our stay at The Retro! We appreciated the thought that went into making it the groovy 70s pad that it is, whilst allowing for modern touches and making for a comfortable stay. Communication was also excellent. The place is close to town, nice park nearby... we hope to come back soon!

Cool trip down memory lane
We like the “Retro”! It was fun being surrounded by a large collection of orange things from the 60s and 70s.
