You’ll be handled with care when you visit this motel, given it’s a family business, it’s wonderful to be treated with care and kindness. Highly recommend a visit
This hotel was amazing. The room was immaculate and so cozy. The power went out (a pelican ran into a powerline!) and the staff was very helpful in keeping us updated and providing tea candles so we could see in our rooms. Amazing stay.
Great little family owned hotel. Welcomed by 2 sweet labs in the parking area across from wonderful large beach and incredible sunsets. Perfect breakfast lunch and dinner at their restaurant. Much better than staying in port Campbell-that’s too touristy. We loved staying here in this quite little hamlet right on the Grest ocesn Tx / just perfect!!
We thoroughly enjoyed our time in Peterborough. Room was very clean beautifully renovated and decorated . Our dinner and breakfast were delicious. Short walk across the road to the beach. Beautiful quiet outdoor area to sit in the evening and enjoy the beautiful weather we had. Highly recommend. A credit to the staff and owners. Thank you
We enjoyed our 1 night stay here at Peterborough. It was one of our last stops on the Great Ocean Road. It is a quick walk to the beach and the walking trails in the area are beautiful.
The room was good size and equipped with all we needed. If I had known more about the area, I might have chosen a place in Port Campbell instead.
The Peterborough House was a very nice stay.
We truly enjoyed our stay at Peterborough House. It was steps from the beach; we had dinner on site; and continental breakfast was very good - especially the fresh-from-the-oven croissants.
Less than 20 minutes away from the 12 Apostles viewing platform. We stayed for its closeness so we can take pictures for sunset and sunrise at the 12 Apostles. The hotel has good choices for dinner, and the kitchen staff even helped to make a very customized breakfast, completely off the menu! Very friendly and helpful staff, they provided sightseeing tips for a couple of less well known local attractions. A great finding for us!
We arrived late and left early and the weather didn't allow for activities but the hotel was extremely clean and the staff was very friendly. I would definitely stay again.
This is a gem of a place! Modern style with great, warm family feel. It’s across a basically empty road from and incredible beach. Walking paths straight from the motel, games, food, coffee and yummy curry. The rooms are great. Our family loved staying here!
Welcoming staff. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean.
Food was excellent.
I would highly recommend this hotel

Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort
Ok stay; probably won’t be back
Ok room but some issues. Room clean and bed mostly comfortable. Large room and easy parking. When we arrived bedspread had holes in it and had to be changed. Also “free” breakfast not good at all and rather went elsewhere for breakfast. Had supper there and good, no issues. Probably not stay there again. Overpriced.
The reception was friendly and helpful.
The room was spacious and clean, just across the road to the beach and the motel had a pleasant dining area where we had an evening meal and lovely fresh croissants for breakfast.
We were delighted with our stay
