Peppers Moonah Links Resort

Peppers Moonah Links Resort

10/10 Excellent
"This is the second time I stayed at this facility. First time I stayed with my husband and we stayed at the open bedroom overlooking the fairway. The second time around I came with my daughter and we stayed at Room 52. It has a putting green just outside the room. My husband would have loved it but he was in Tassie playing at Barnbougles. We had a nice dinner at Strike bar but I was hoping The main restaurant was opened. We went for a run around the golf course. I wished there was a trail around the area. Will definitely stay here again."
