Stayed for a wedding reception at Blacksmiths Beach SLSC - perfect location for any function there. Walked down to the beach for a swim at Granny's. Used the BBQ area for cooking and meals. Easy walk to and from the surf club for the wedding. Great location. Lovely and cool when the weather was hot and really comfortable.
Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017
