What a beautiful and cosy place! My daughter and I went for a weekend getaway and didn’t want to leave. The only fault if you can call it one was the shower head. The breakfast was delivered to our door and was so fresh and delicious. Very private but spacious. I would go back there again in a heart beat. Thank you spotted chook!

We travelled all of 14kms to spend a quiet weekend away - and that is exactly what we got. We had a great time at the Spotted Chook in the Buttercup Room. The communication was super easy and quick and the place looks exactly like the pictures, romantic, French provincial. It was a great location for our day trips along the range. And lastly, the breakfasts are just wonderful, with fresh produce, local products and free range eggs. Honestly, we did not have to eat until dinner after eating breakfasts. Would absolutely recommend you stay here! It would be cozy in winter with the fire in the rooms and looking out over the range.

家族４人で日本から10月に1泊させてもらいました。 ハートフル、ホームメイド、というよな言葉がぴったりな、なんとも人間的な暖かさを持つ良いホテルです。建物はペンション的な雰囲気ある構造で、清潔な部屋や寝具といった設備だけでなく、本当に美味しい朝食やパンや、何より店主の親切で人間的な対応が、この場所をとっておきのホテルにしています。 僕にとっては、ベランダから見る南半球の星空がとても綺麗で最高でした。小さい子供たちは、建物内の探検やおもちゃ、ホテルにいる犬と猫に喜んでいました。そして、店主や他の宿泊者と交わす会話が、ここの宿泊体験を、独特でより良いものにしてくれました。 市街地にあるような企業的な大型ホテルに飽きたり、都会の謙遜や沿岸の歓楽街から、少し離れたくなったら、ここをお勧めします。 新しい視点が得られて、何か思い出が残る、独特の味を持った素晴らしいホテルでした。

Emily und Andre sind - auch wenn sie die eigentlichen Owner Jane & Leeroy "nur" vertreten haben - die perfekten Gastgeber. Vor allem das Frühstück, das Emily jeden Morgen zaubert, ist sensationell. Für ihre Gäste backt und bruzelt sie perfekte Muffins oder Omeletts. Und die Croissants sind ein Gedicht - Frankreich in Australien. Dazu die grandiose Aussicht, das Ambiente des Hauses und die Freundlichkeit der Betreiber ist bemerkenswert. Unser Zimmer (Snowpea) war sehr geräumig und mit allem ausgestattet, was man so braucht (Kühlschrank, Gläser, Kaffee, Tee, Milch, Zucker, Besteck). Wir waren über Silvester für 4 Tage hier und haben uns so wohl gefühlt, daß wir eigentlich gar nicht mehr abreisen wollten. @Jane: We are so sorry about your injury. We wish you all the best and that you have the patience needed. Give the healing process the time it wants. Anmerkung für die, die bis hierher lesen: Andre kommt aus der Nähe von Würzburg in Franken und man kann deswegen sogar deutsch reden, wenn es mit dem Englisch nicht so dolle sein sollte.
