Central location, good food. We stayed in a studio that had quite a large kitchen but unlikely to be used since there was no table and chairs to be able to eat. Lovely barhroon

First time stopping in Melbourne, we were given a cottage room over the road from the pub, it had a lovely little kitchen area which was a bonus with a large fridge freezer, the room was cosy and well furnished, and even had a small courtyard out from the back door, a great spot for breakfast

Expensive but good.

Quite expensive considering the size of the room and breakfast not included. That said, bed and pillows super comfortable. We ate a late afternoon three course meal and breakfast the following day which were both excellent.

Place was clean, cheerful, helpful with good food and beer. Some road noise early in the morning and the odd plane from East Midlands airport in the night but a bargain compared to staying there.

Lovely small hotel in beautiful Melbourne. Only disappointment was no breakfast served on a Monday and very little choice of a nowhere to eat on a Sunday night. The beauty of the stunning little town made up for it though.

I liked the internal layout of the accommodation which was like a small appartement. I didn't like having to cross the road to the main building for meals and drink.
