Sweet motel. Great size in a beautiful area. Loved having a Nespresso machine with coffee! Only negatives were that the refrigerator had not been cleaned at the bottom and there was sticky goo. Also, housekeeping played music very loud in the mornings after others checked out but we were staying another night. But the surroundings are beautiful and the cottages were adorable.

A great property to stay at, conveniently located a few hundred metres from the main street and close to the attractions. The room was very clean and comfortable and had all the amenities that you could need. The staff were friendly and obliging. Will stay there again if in the area

A good rest stop. Facility is a bit dated but amenities were in good working conditions. Just that the wifi signal is very weak most of the time. Nice mountain view.

Pretty spot with restaurant two doors down (need to book even though it says bookings not accepted). Really nice pub up the road and only a few minutes drive to Lake Matheson.
