Not recommend. Room was very small, only just big enough for the bed, very hard to walk around the bed. WiFi didn’t work at all. No help offered.

We have stayed here twice, both times we had a room and not one of the cottages. Room is comfortable and had everything we needed. The cleanness is so so; the bedlinen and especially the towels just don’t smell fresh or clean. I am not saying that they were dirty, but it was as if they were washed without a detergent/soap. Driveway up to reception is pretty but in need of a bit of maintenance. Overall: average

Such a beautiful location - after a long drive it was the ultimate pleasurable place to relax and unwind. A cool dip in the pool on a very hot afternoon was perfect and we were upgraded to one of the cottages! Thank you for a memorable stay

Nice peaceful place to stay we really enjoyed it had everything we needed. A few things I would suggest are in need of upgrading such as the curtains but other than that I would highly recommend this place.

Beautiful Grounds
Motel units are spread out on beautiful grounds. There is a river at the bottom of the property and several natural pools. Great place to stay if you love nature. It is tucked away from the main road down a long driveway. The units have a kitchen and there is also a comunal area with bbq, sauna and spa. The interior of the unit is a bit dated and filled with large furniture which gives it a charm but also makes the room smaller. Considering the price, this was a great place to stay.

Spacious, quiet and scenic. However, the Venetian blinds urgently need to be cleaned, also the lamps beside the bed. The low sofa needs to be replaced. With a little effort this place could be very nice.

This place is heaven. The pictures online do not do it justice. Avalon Resort is the place to be when in he area. it is accessible it is clean and the apartments are incredible. We spent and amazing 5 days at this place and leaving was very upsetting. The staff and the owner do an amazing job to make your stay as exciting or as peaceful as you would like. A big thank you to Avalon Resort from us.

This is in a lovely setting with lots of greenery, I particularly enjoyed sitting by the stream running through it. Bed was very comfortable, couch not so much. Welcome was friendly, so was the old dog. Would have prefered some information in the room on local amenities, cafes etc. Overall great stay :)
