A super cute boutique inn in the middle of the most beautiful town. Close to amazing bush walking. The room was very clean, and full of unique furniture. The building is full of character. The staff were friendly. Our only issue was the WIFI did not work, and when we called it in, we were told that it happens often and that the whole building was out. So if your trip relies on WIFI access be aware. But for a beautiful relaxing stay at a unique property that is not your run of the mill hotel, this place will satisfy. It was our anniversary, and they had written a note saying Happy Anniversary to us on the mirror.

Everything was wonderful. I loved the fire place, the bath tub, the huge king size bed. The little kitchenette was a good touch. I liked that there was a good decent fridge as well. What could be better: the bathroom floor was very slippery even with the handle bars USB points to charge our devices.

Cosy winter stay

Had an amazing overnight stay in the Hathaway Suite. It was so cosy with the fireplace going all night and all day. No need to leave the room , perfect anniversary weekend. Enjoyed a lovely dinner at the local Thai Restaurant up the road. We were also greeted with a lovely anniversary message on the mirror. Would definitely stay again.

The King Arthur Suite was cosy and comfortable for our wedding anniversary. We found our room to be nice and cool for the extreme hot weather we had on the labour day long weekend. There were nice little touches like chocolates, some breakfast provisions in the fridge and an anniversary message on the mirror. The little courtyard was private and served us well for our breakfast mornings. We took full advantage of the next door day spa and had a couples massage which was to die for. The only negative thing we would report is the tiny basin in the bathroom, which meant we got water everywhere each time we used it and the poor lighting in there. We would love to go back in the future and stay in the Hathaway Suite. The staff were very accommodating and inviting.

A great stay up in the hills.

Two days away in the Dandenong ranges to re-charge our batteries. Great accomodation in the wonderful little village of Olinda in the heart of the ranges. Time spent walking in the sorounding forests and shopping in the local villages.
