Friendly staff and met needs of offering cold water upon check in and extra pillows when requested. The bed was comfortable and hotel was quiet at night even though sold out for a busy holiday weekend. The room and bathroom was clean but does need some modernization.

A little gem.

The hotel is lovely. By their own admission the owners have a notice saying excuse us whilst we renovate. The lodge was fine, we didn’t really notice it wanted much done. The car park was plenty, the room was spacious and comfy. Great views out the back. Convenient for the area, we really liked it.
