Merryl the hostess greets you at the door with a wonderful warm smile and you can... read more tell she is very proud of their piece of paradise they have carved out for themselves. The heritage home is decorated to reflect its age. The furnishings are lovely. Everywhere they have little treats, my husband loved that as he had a sweet tooth. Our room was large with a very very comfortable 4 poster bed. I would love to take home with me. I nice fireplace kept us cozy all night. The accommodation was clean. A lovely kitchenette. The veranda had comfortable chairs with a table to put your drinks on plus a table & with normal chairs if you wanted to play a card game outside. We enjoyed looking at the river and listening to the birds in the afternoon with our drinks and in the morning with our coffee. Breakfast was delicious with a huge variety. The best croissants I have tasted in a long time. Don’t make the same mistake I did in the past, I bypassed this little gem as we are not usual into heritage furnishings and B&B. Our stay was delightful and we will be back again very soon. Hopefully there will be a suite available as I am sure once word gets out we will have to book well in advance. Thank you for a lovely relaxing stay.

There are so many beautiful ‘extra touches’ like complimentary small cakes and confectionary in the lounge together with coffee machine and fine china. Breakfast is scrumptious and served in an elegant chandelier dining room. Upstairs is a pool table and media room. Bedrooms have 4 poster king beds and a lovely welcome fireplace. The view from the verandah of the river is very scenic and relaxing.
    This was our second visit and it didn’t disappoint. It truly was a step back in time, not only because of the heritage building itself, but moreso, the personalised service and friendliness of Merryl and Phil. Would highly recommend this beautiful accommodation for a peaceful, relaxing and rejuvenating stay.
