Amazing service
The room is spotlessly clean and modern.
I only do overnight stops on my way back home but wouldn’t hesitate to book in and stay here longer.

Carol takes care of the place and everything was clean and in the right spot and there was plenty of everything even a labeled numbered parking spot for each car so there’s no dispute where you’re supposed to park. It’s walking distance to the town and two pubs and it’s just above the river so you can walk down or drive down.

It was two years ago since we had stayed at the Motel River Bend & found for our one night stay again; this lovely motel is just the place to pull up to for a relaxing evening before heading off on our road trip the following morning! Can highly recommend the Motel River Bend for fellow travellers
