Good stopover and lovely hot showers and bed but ambiance could be improved.

It was a decent sized room, gorgeous views, beds were lovely and warm, staff were excellent, food was good.

The toilet seat was broken and dirty, the room was icy cold and had no carpet to keep your feet warm, food took a long time to come, dining room was very cold (could have started a fire in fireplace). The road was terrible to get in (potholes large enough to swallow your car!)

Exceptional

Wow, don't know what to begin to describe the place. It's really a wonderful stay and the place is very beautiful. The hut standing on the water. Vertu nice design. Heater, WiFi, seating over looking the pond. Pizza is a must try here. Staff are very nice and kind. You can see they do their best to take care of you. Wonderful place

Disappointing

Beautifully located rooms. Lovely gardens. Room was nice. Dinner was OK.

Thier site on Booking.com says wifi everywhere but it is only available at the restaurant. Cell coverage is between 0 -1 bar but mostly 0. Says they 4 star. I'd rate the room 3 star but everything else as 2 star. 4 star should have fridges in the rooms. No fridges. They don't have ice !!! Not much available for breakfast so we ate somewhere else. My wife wanted coffee and toast for breakfast. They only have toast and butter. Nothing else to put on the toast. Besides the room on their dam, there is no value for money. No hand towels. No shampoo. Only a soap dispenser that you you have to move from the basin to the shower. No soap tray in the shower so you have to put everything on the floor.

Incredible stay.

The food was incredible and the view was amazing.

I would have liked to have been shown our room instead of just given a key and a number.

Good

The location was excellent and easily accessible.

We were informed that the restaurant would be open for dinner and breakfast in the welcome letter. We were looking forward to this as it is the top-rated restaurant in town according to Trip Advisor. On arrival, we were informed that all facilities were closed.

They tried hard to please and went out of there way , management supervion was lacking , staff needs training in order to deliver an excellent standard of service especially in the hospitality business. . excellent facility but lacked ambience and the wow factor .

The venue was scenic, peaceful and relaxing - felt like Home away from home...

The meals were delicious. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed the pizzas and the nachos. All staff were friendly and accommodating and available at any time if we needed anything. I will definitely come back.

The Old Orchard Guest House is comfortable, clean with lovely views and lots of birds.

The view from the rooms over the little dam is lovely. It is a very small town so we didn't expect much the place was very charming, with friendly staff and delicious food.

The verandah looking over the dam needs a bit of attention.
