Dorothy was very polite and welcoming host and met us during check in. BothCheck in and check out process was very easy. The cottage was as advertised, clean and very pet-friendly. Cottage had all the amenities and had a comfortable stay. Joe’s Cafe & Fish and chips shop were really good . We also enjoyed picking up boysenberries and eating them straight from the tree in the car parking spot. Will visit again. Thanks.

The accomodation was suitable for us with our dog. However, we found the place dated and not very clean. There should be no carpet in the family room. Lots of stains.

We were delighted by our stay here at Metung. The town is so beautiful and the hot springs are a special treat in a picturesque environment. Dorothy responded quickly to our questions. The beds are comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. It was nice that they provided some biscuits. The shower was good.
