Love the position of The Retreat. Overlooking the river, lovely green lawns, right in the town and close to amenities. parking was easy and some rooms had lawn areas with table and chairs which was great. The room we stayed in was clean, had bathroom toiletries provided and the having the balcony was nice. The room was ok alittle tired some updating might assist with this. We booked thru Booking.com and got a best price for booking early but we felt the price was alittle high, restaurant is not open so breakfast was across the road.

If you are having tourist coaches arriving late at night or very early in the morning, in our case it was 3am. You need to advise when booking is made or before arrival date so a discussion can be had about potential impact of such a scenario. It would have been sensible to discuss it before those who have booked arrive so they can have a choice to select a room away from the tourist bus arriving and dropping off their very noisy and tired customers. Also advising the tourist line that they will need to advise their passengers to be be aware that noise travels at night, when going to their rooms to be reminded to be VERY quiet, DONT slam doors and be courteous. The Retreat has a responsibility to their paying customers and those considering to make a booking to advise of any possible interruption that may impact on those staying there at the time of their booking if they know or to contact those who are booked when it is known by the accommodation provider. Smarter and courteous before the situation can occur. It could have been avoided with some thought and the review would have been higher.

Great big comfy bed! Nice quiet location, beautiful gardens and pool.

Staff unavailable when trying to check out, missing a chair on the balcony that all other rooms had. Would have been nice to be able to use bbq facilities but it was obvious that they weren't in use - not sure why.

great location and comfortable overall

Too soft pillows, no heating in the bathroom

Breakfast location was fine. Retreat location was fine,

The room could have had better lighting. The deck could have been cleaned of bird droppings and leaves.

location & comfortable bed

a little dated but still fine

Staff were very welcoming. There were very few guests when we stayed so it was very tranquil. We loved the view from our first floor balcony, the room was very spacious (with a separate bedroom) and enjoyed the spa bath. The facility is dated but very clean and the gardens very well cared for. There is a plan for renovation so we look forward to supporting this business again in the future (though we would be very happy to return even if it wasn't renovated). We stayed in 6 different accommodations on this trip to Australia. This is the only review I have taken time to complete.

Nothing to mention here.

The location is lovely and the hotel was good. Nice and clean.
