A great experience seeing original buildings and ruins, we really enjoyed the boat trip with the recorded history and tour of the natural harbour. Some of the original buildings were really interesting and gave a real insight into life.

Loved the whole place, sad sad stories from a time long ago. Such a different time and way of life! The grounds were beautiful and we loved all the colours of the leaves
