10/10 Excellent
"tucked away just out of Mount Gambier this is an excellent overnight stay for travellers going to or from Adeliade. Good and clean rooms. We had one looking onto the garden which is well kept. Big room and very clean. Nice restaurant which is a little expensive but good value for the money. would stay again."
