Our happy guests

  • star rating  This beautiful accommodation was our home for three nights and it really did feel like it was our home. All the common areas are available for the guests to enjoy... read more included the foyer, the sitting room where you will find coffee and treats, the dining room and the games and media room. Merryl and Phil have done a wonderful job restoring Bli Bli House and creating an ambience that takes you back to days gone by. Merryl was an attentive host and helped make our stay perfect. We took the opportunity to have dinner in the Chandelier Room which was a highlight of our stay. Breakfast in bed or on our private veranda was also included and it did not disappoint.Highly recommend a visit here if you want to be spoilt and pampered!

From start to finish, I felt so relaxed and pampered at the Bli Bli House. We stayed in the Heritage Suite, which is absolutely beautiful with its four-poster bed, fireplace and seating area, spa bathtub, and - most charmingly - its own veranda with seating for reading plus table and chairs for dining. We loved feeling tucked away in this beautiful room with its private outdoor space for the duration of our stay. Our hosts, Phil and Merryl, did everything they could to ensure a 5-star experience for us. Knowing it was a special birthday for me, they gave us a bottle of wine and brought us strawberries and chocolate later that evening. The following morning, our pre-ordered breakfast arrived on a cart outside our door with everything served in silver. It felt so lush, luxurious, and 'old world' as we ate our breakfast on the veranda. I have lived in Australia for ten years (I'm originally from the US) and have honestly never experienced this level of thoughtful hospitality and service at another establishment.

As a fan of period piece films set in the 19th and early 20th centuries, I truly felt transported to another time and place. My husband and I definitely plan on returning when we can. Thanks a million, Phil and Merryl, for helping to make my 50th birthday a memorable one. More

  • star rating  I was reluctant to write a review of our experience at Bli Bli House as I want to keep this amazing place a secret! But ofcourse that isn’t fair to... read more the wonderful hosts of Bli Bli House, Phil & Merryl. I can not fault this place. Everything from the warm friendly welcome from the hosts to the the exquisite rooms, beautiful gardens and delicious breakfasts. We were so taken with our first visit we booked almost the entire place for our second visit and brought a group of friends with us. The billiards table upstairs got a workout (just watch your head!) we can’t wait to return. Thank you Phil & Merryl. We will be back again.. and again. More

  • star rating  We had the very good fortune to find Bli Bli House Riverside Retreat online and stayed spontaneously overnight in July 2022. Wow ! What a wonderful experience it was.... read more A warm welcome from Meryl and consummate attention paid to every detail. An absolutely beautiful location on the riverside adds additional joy to a fantastic stay. Wonderful morning breakfast brought to our room and the broader amenities were well beyond our expectation. Comfy warm bed, and room the amenities, large outside balcony and space are outstanding. Thank you for a wonderful stay. We have booked already for a future weekend stay and looking forward to it. Highly recommended.

    Merryl’s hospitality is was very touching, we felt that we know her for a long time, she was kind , generous and very welcoming to us.
    Phil is obviously a great guy and multitalented and Merryl said most of the fabulous interior decoration was his personal taste and input.
    Unfortunately due to our short stay we couldn’t talk to him much but he made us a very tasty breakfast along with pots of coffee and tea, promptly delivered to our rooms.
    We also took a friend aling with us who came from Sydney , he was so impressed with the whole experience.
    We are planning return back to the place as soon as we get our next chance and strongly recommend this place for any one who loves a victorian style grandeur.

  • star rating  We selected Bli Bli House purely from previous reviews which were spot on.
    We had a lovely night. Although we had planned on eating in, this wasn’t an option when... read more we arrived. No big deal, we drove down the road and purchased some prawns, which in hindsight sight, it was nice sitting on the verandah watching the sun go down, eating prawns and drinking bubbles.
    If the people in the next room didn’t wake at 4.45am on a Sunday morning and turn the TV on and talk reasonably loudly for that time of the morning, everything would have been excellent!
    Breakfast came at the allotted time. Again, nice to sit on the verandah and take our time. No rushing to leave early.
    We didn’t know what to expect prior to going, however we would definitely go back again…. More

  • star rating  We stayed at Bli Bli House for 5 days and wish that it could have been longer. The whole house is filled with opulence and old fashioned charm.... read more The rooms are well equipped and the four poster beds are super comfortable. A delicious breakfast of our choice was delivered to our room on a silver service trolley each day which we enjoyed on our veranda overlooking the neighbouring gardens and River. The hosts, Merryl and Phil are wonderful and provided lots of additional touches such as welcome chocolates and cakes available in the guest lounge throughout the day. We also arranged an afternoon tea at the House during our stay which was absolutely amazing and great value for money. Super place to stay - we hope to return. More

  • star rating  We stayed with our hosts, Merryl and Phil at Bli Bli house for several months. Breakfasts were nothing short of splendid, always cooked to perfection and beautifully presented. We were... read more treated as valued guests where nothing was too much trouble and where we were transported back to a time where good conversation and company could be enjoyed. The convenience of the coffee machine, fridge and microwave in the room were supplemented by complimentary cakes, chocolates and other treats. Thank you for a wonderful stay where we were able to recharge in a quiet location with river views.
