Such a great place to stay

We’ve stayed in numerous hotels/motels in and around Margaret River over the last 15 years, and this motel is the friendliest we’ve ever experienced. Steve was great to deal with and chat to, and the accommodation was good. We’ll definitely be back.

Very nice spot in Margaret River. Trees behind and a short walk to the Brewhouse. Steve is very helpful and knowledgeable of the area. We’d recommend Marg’s Bakery down the road (short drive but a bit of a walk) for breakfast.

We love Margaret River and being able to walk into town for dining is fantastic, but the motel is far enough out of town to chill out in the native bush that surrounds the property. If you’re unsure of where to eat then ask the owner, he’s been in the area for sometime (Local) and has his finger on the pulse, but remember to book a table or you could be disappointed.
