We loved staying here. Units were clean tidy and comfortable, water pressure was out the gate. Its pet friendly which was a big draw card for us. The only thing we didn't like was parking. The driveway was extremely narrow and parking at times could be congested and challenging. The hosts were friendly and welcoming and we would be happy to reccomend The Northcote Motor Lodge to all travellers. We will be back💕🐾

Our stay was great, room was clean, quiet and the bed was comfortable. The only issue was that it was a particularly hot afternoon / evening and there was no heat pump for air conditioning. That would have been nice but the fan did an OK job. Will stay again for sure.
