“Fantastic location on the rail trail. Historic old pub with loads of character. Friendly,helpful staff”
“If you are driving, cycling or are out hiking, this place is probably for you, because it is out in the hills. The atmos of the place is warm, inviting, friendly and comfortable. A great breakfast is provided in an interesting dining room. We stayed in the room across the yard out the back of the tavern and it was cosy and quiet. A beautiful historic tavern this is, set in beautiful surrounds with very helpful, accommodating staff.”
“Exceptional food and a wonderfully welcoming host. Very friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful gardens and fantastic decor inside the tavern. Would recommend this place without hesitation.”
“A very lovely hostess, Lesley, is to be thanked for her kindness and hospitality. The place was historical, interesting and "pittoresque", it was amazing to find an old inn - in the mid of the rural scenery, with hens, donkeys, sheep - serving good food in friendly atmosphere.”
“Bed was almost too comfortable, didn't want to wake up and the shower was excellent, good pressure and hot! Along with that, the staff are extremely friendly and the bar is excellent.”
“We liked everything...Lovely place to stay will definitely go back and Leslie the host is so nice....”
“Really a great place! Owners made everything to make it very charming and comfy. Tavern/pub is also and attraction for locals. So if you want to get any extra info on the latest news and developments around - it`s the place to hang out! And if you are thinking to explore the area it's definitely worth driving extra few km-s from Alexandra to stay at this chatto. I stayed there on my way to St Bathan's lake.”
“The food at the restaurant was the best we had during our New Zealand trip! Lesley (the owner) is a lovely warm lady who looked after us and gave us lots of great ideas of things to do during our stay. We were made to feel very at home from the moment we walked in the door.”
