"The property was perfect for our family of 6. The beds were so comfortable it was just like being at home.There were games and a basketball hoop which the kids loved. The showers pressure in the master bath was lovely. There were no hand/tea towels and we werent allowed to use the pallet fire even though there were instructions on how to use it."

Friendly staff and very helpful. Rooms were clean and spacious, good value for cost of room.
I would recommend this property for its proximity to shops and easy walking.

Great value for money slightly older style motel. I like staying at places like this, feels like home and cheaper than newer or top end places. We were able to check in early which was great news to drop stuff off and ready ourselves for a day at the beer fest.

We were so pleasantly surprised by our stay at The Black Horse!! Looks way nicer than the pictures and has such a lovely character. The rooms have all been recently renovated and we even got a sunny window which was nice to read your book in. Also there is a kitchen! So you can totally cook your own meals just like in a hostel. Such value for money!! Would so stay here again, thank you MJ for hosting us :)
