★ ★ ★ ★ ★ The motel was excellent with a 10/10 for cleanliness and beautiful gardens.
Unfortunately the room was noisy with a humming switchboard and upper floor.
The host (Murry) needs some training from his wife on customer service.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Friendly welcome. Clean, comfortable room. Only downside that the owners may want to address in future is further sound proofing. In our down stairs room we could hear people coming and going from upstairs room and people and and plumbing noises from above

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ I enjoyed the room and it was quiet. I ended up staying an extra night due to the weather & not wanting to travel in that heavy rain. But I felt they were suspicious of me staying there & they even just walked straight into my room without knocking and were checking it out as if I was hiding something in there? I felt abit uncomfortable by this as I was simply staying to rest & stop over like anybody else, I stay in hotels/motels all over the country & never had this happened was abit odd.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ Clean with helpful friendly owners and staff.
Unit 12 has the owners flat above and you hear every footstep.
Trains are a bit of a problem especially if you want a window open for fresh air. Needs an aircon so you can leave the window closed and double glazing.
Why have a loudly ticking clock? If you must have a time piece put a digital one in.
Plumbing eventually drains the shower and hand basin.
Lots of building materials behind units looks unsightly should be cleaned up.

★ ★ ★ ★ ★ We had a four night stay at the end of January. First impressions when we arrived were great as the property and gardens are well maintained and quite lovely. Our hosts were welcoming, friendly and helpful. The location is ideal - out of the city, but easy to access it by car, bus or train. Public transport is close to the lodge. Our unit was lovely and clean, and also well maintained. We really look forward to staying again.
