How lovely to arrive at Chestnut Hill on Boxing day and not be disappointed. With two friends who had recently arrived for a visit from the UK, we set off from Melbourne with our two beloved labradors hoping that what we had seen on the website would be what we would find, and it was. After a very warm greeting... More

Thank you Pearl for a very friendly welcome and delicious blueberry tarts, plus our daily help yourself breakfast. We found the spa cottage very well appointed with quality linen and furnishings and very comfortable for 2. The BBQ was a great asset especially after a day of sightseeing and fishing. Our only setback was no internet in the cottage and... More

We were warmly greeted by Pearl who made us so welcome and provided us with marvellous personalised service. Everything was simply perfect - from the quality of the room, to the view from the beautiful breakfast/tea/dining room. This contrasts to the largely impersonal treatment often experienced at "chain" hotels. The finishing touch (for me) was the free internet connection. Pearl... More

Thank you for taking the time to write a generous review on our business, we remember the 'little things' that make a difference during our own holidays whether they are Australian or International holiday's, communication with our family / business while we are away is always a priority & it is the reason we offer complimentary WiFi + PC facilities...

What a lovely place to get away and find that romance again. A small bed and breakfast with very accomodating owners, beautiful views and great breakfast included. It is a very quiet little area so you do require your own transport, but just the right distance between Bairnsdale/Lakes Entrance etc for it to be peacefull and far enough away, but... More

A 'Belated' Thank you for your generous review. We are pleased that you enjoyed your stay at our Country Retreat, we do say it's close enough to enjoy the fun of Metung & far enough away not to inherit everyone else's party when you want rest, romance & relaxation. Once again, Thank you for choosing to stay with us at... More

Just got back from our road trip in Australia and felt I must write a review for this great B&B where we had the pleasure to spend one night during our travels. The accommodation is a hosted B&B within the owner’s home where one end of the property has I think 3 or 4 B&B bedrooms, I believe there is... More

We stayed here for one night in February 2010 in the cottage outside the main house. It is a nice little place on your own: lounge with kitchen, bedroom with spa, and bath room. All well maintained. No internet access in the cottage. Breakfast provisions are placed in the refrigerator. The lady of the house is very friendly and helpful.... More

We spend 1 night at Chestnut Hill on our way to Melbourne. Because it was my birthday, we booked a diner in advanced. The owners are very warm and friendly people. The welcome at the Bed and Breakfast was great. We booked the Lavender room and the room also was great with a wonderfull view. Diner was excellent and also... More
