    Such an easy check in with the key waiting in the door, perfect for a late arrival on a cold rainy night. Comfy and warm, very clean, and great to have a coffee plunger in the room to make a real coffee!

    Great value motel. Good location in Fairlie - close to shops and cafes. Motel was very clean and warm - the underfloor heating was a real bonus, especially in the bathroom.
  • Simon

    The unit was very tidy, spacious and was very comfortable. The smart TV was useful and the kitchen was functional and adequate for our requirements.
  • Anna

    Milk provided, a flowering pot plant were touches. Room was warmed with heating on and cosy. Communication by text kept us informed, as owner-operator is not on site. It has everything needed in the kitchen to prepare a light meal.

    There was a garden and carpet warmer. You can go and harvest herbs and sometimes vegetables. They also provided us with a snow scraper for the windscreen on the car.
