OK, In answer to my original question, I successfully am now using curlftpfs to mount the NAS.
I added my user to group 'fuse' and also added the option 'allow_other' to my curlftpfs command and it now works! Thanks for all the input, would still be interested to see if I can mount it using SMB tho.
