10/10 Exceptional

A nicely appointed room with a lovely outlook. The room was a great size with a queen bed, table and chairs, lounge and kitchenette. Loves the Nespresso coffee machine. A large bathroom with plenty of hot water.

Glenda, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Lovely green rolling hills in a rural setting but close to Dorrigo National Park walking trails and waterfalls.
Kay, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

A beautiful quiet location and the room was incredibly spacious and spotlessly clean. Very comfy bed and lounge chairs. It was nice to have the fireplace lit in the guests' common area. Close to Dorrigo for dinner. Unfortunately, the electric blanket didn't work, but the aircon kept the room warm (it snowed nearby, so very cold outside!)

Shane, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The resort was very clean and tidy. The room was well appointed and bed was very comfortable. Plenty of room to spread-out. The supplied continental breakfast was ok but the bread for toasting was very dry and stale. The outside grounds were very well kept and a credit to the ground's keeper. The property is out of town and has lovely views. I would happily stay again.

The location suited our travel plans, Ben was very helpful and made excellent omelettes!
Justin, 2-night trip

4/10 Fair

Great location, property is a bit dated but clean overall. Booked this one at a premium because it was advertised as inclusive of breakfast which did not turn out to be true. Being a small town, breakfast options were expensive as well, felt cheated by the experience
Satheesh, 1-night trip

4/10 Fair

This was my first motel stay and it wasn’t to my usual standard. Accommodation requires modernisation (furniture and fabric), and some exterior lighting to be more welcoming after dark.
Paul, 1-night trip

The location was quiet and relaxing
