This was the perfect place to stay for visiting the twelve apostles. So close and so quiet. We couldn’t have asked for a better reception when we arrived. Everything was perfect and the shower was unbelievable on a cold night. Couldn’t fault a thing

Very good experience. Seems like the new owner is doing a great job at tidying the place up and buying new equipment such as smart TVs, exhaust fans in the bathroom, electric blankets and other equipment. We loved the location and the friendly dog as well. Very highly recommended

Our room was no hot water supply at that night, the staff gave an option to other room to take a shower, we are three women, my two friends from oversea, don't know English, everyone were worried going to other room took a shower. After a full day travelling, hot showers were our priority.

Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
The dog there could understand English, but not the staff or people handling the property and no amenities were provided inside the room and even an used hand soap was left out in the bathroom with hairs left as it is everywhere. Spiders were seen crawling on the bed and under the sink in the bathroom and scared the hell out of us in the night. The heater was very loud and making thudding sounds whenever it auto stopped/restarted disturbing the sleep. Worst ever accommodations and for the exorbitant prices changed, never will recommend any one to this place ever, even if they give it for free. Not clean, not safe inside, not quiet. The TV is a small chinese table top TV where noting works and hardly any english channels to watch and not a smart TV either.

Beautiful natural surroundings, and peace and quiet abound The manager Eric was friendly and helpful. The only real complaint was the air con was a bit noisy, but it was warm and comfortable without it. We'll certainly come back. Only a hop, skip and a jump to the 12 Apostles

Disappointed
Unfortunately very disappointing. Our rooms were dirty, other people's hair were on the bathroom floor when we arrived, the shower was leaking, there were spider webs along the corners in the ceiling and the fly screens in our rooms where broken. The WiFi connection was inconsistent and poor. There weren't any staff member present when we arrived or left, so can't really rewiev their service. I would recommend go drive in to Port Campbell and stay there if you need accommodation in this area.
