Very conveniently located across the road from Sovereign Hill (walking distance). Restaurant serves lovely meals. Lots of parking for our cars. Rooms are quite tired and run down but clean and roomy enough for us. The landscaped grounds are lovely and there is a cafe/bar area with cosy fireplaces to gather at next to the restaurant. We stay here every year for our annual visit to Sovereign Hill. Perfect for a group!
