Generally clean but limited amenities over the winter months (no restaurant) . It is super unique and provides a point of difference compared to other accommodation. Beware the bears but most of all look out for the dolls.

Stayed for 1 night on the way to Hastings Caves. Clean room, and comfortable bed. There is a large fire place in the common area to warm you up while eating breakfast, which was very good! Close to platypus walk, where we did see a platypus swimming around!

My wife and I stayed there for 2 nights. Our room was nice but could have done with a small table and 2 chairs. We had a double bed and 2 bunks. Bed and pillows were comfy. Cooked b/fast was included in the tarif. The place was a boutique B and B. But it served evening meals and alcoholic drinks in the comfortable dayroom, cafe, bistro.At night they had a nice fire going in the fireplace. The food they served was of good quality and well presented. Some people might have had to wait longer than they expected, but like everywhere in Australia staff shortages were a problem. All up,our stay was quite enjoyable.

This quaintly named cafe needs to focus on service. It took ages to get two coffees despite the place being nearly deserted. When it came, the coffee was quite good but the wait rather spoiled the enjoyment.

What a cosy little gem! The best smelling cafe EVER according to my son. What a beautiful little find in Geeveston for morning tea. Incredible coffee, hot chocolate and mouth watering buttermilk scones sitting by the fire - thank-you for a wonderful experience.

My wife ordered a smoked salmon toastie and after waiting for a good while, it didn’t look like any salmon was actually on the toastie. Soon after checking this back at the counter, the cook or chef as she called herself got rather abusive (actually really abusive). The other staff were apologetic but after that type of ‘service’ from the owner of the place… no way will we be eating there again!

What a wonderful little gem this place is. It is positioned well in Geeveston, a wonderful town. There is a pharmacy, supermarket, post office and more. Just a small walk away you can take the platypus walk, look closely and you will see them swimming around. The manager is Audrey, what a host. Audrey is so accommodating, pleasant and makes you feel very welcomed. Sit on the lounge in front of the fire, have a drink at the bar or have an amazing meal (all home cooked). The rooms are spacious and tastefully decorated. This place has everything you need. I highly recommend you spending the time to stay here, even if you’re going through Geeveston, pop in and say hello.
