Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

This was exactly as a b and b should be!
A lovely breaky, very clean room, nice outlook in a gorgeous old house. All the extras have been thought of here - homemade cookies in the room, draft stoppers so it’s quiet and blackouts for the windows. I was v comfortable!

I was in the Avalon Room which was quiet, clean, comfortable, well-appointed and had nice views. The hosts were even able to provide a gluten-free breakfast for me, which was very nice. The only problem was getting the WiFi password. It wasn't printed anywhere in the room and the staff manually entered it into my phone but, when I asked for it to be written on a piece of paper so I could use it for my laptop too, the staff were always too busy.

Loved the room but we felt a bit rushed at breakfast. My wife had a small bowl of cereal and I had a nice bowl of fresh fruit and yoghurt. My wife was going to have some fruit too but before she could get it the food was taken away. I’m sure the lady had good intentions, but she was just a little too quick, we felt that we were being rushed out. All the other people had gone down for a 6:00 am breakfast, we were the only ones at 7:00 and maybe that was holding her up a bit. My wife is Thai and they don’t like to be confrontational at all, so she didn't want me to ask for the fruit again. There wasn’t much left anyway, so I’m sure it wouldn’t have been a cost imposition for her to have fruit as well as cereal. I’m sorry, but we just felt a little uncomfortable at breakfast, otherwise the stay was great.

I thought I was in Fawlty Towers🤪🤪
Was it the fact that:
waking with a sore neck as a result of a TV that was suspended from the ceiling or
rock hard pillows. or
a shower that took ages to heat up and was then like a leaky tap, no pressure. or
lack of body wash , just those lather less soaps, no face cloth. or
the fiasco at breakfast:
there was only the two of us (no surprises there) and we were not even finished our cereal when asked by madam if she could put the fruit away off the sideboard.
I quickly gathered a small bowl of fruit salad, placed it on the table, not on the coaster as I was keeping that for the hot coffee . Madam then removed it from the table and placed it on the coaster.
Now the coffee 🤪🤪🤪
When we first arrived we were planning on going into town for a coffee, but the owner told us that there wouldn’t be anything open.
So, in the room was a pod coffee machine, which I had never used, preferring freshly percolated. I went down to ask the correct way to use it and was more or less told by madam to have the instant coffee in the room. She made no effort to show me. I then attempted to use it, placed the pod in, after filling with water, pressed the button, ‘nothing’? changed power points, still ‘nothing’. So went for the instant coffee .
At breakfast, I mentioned that I didn’t think it was working. The owner, unbeknown to us went into our room, that still had our personal items in, operated the machine, brought down a glass with coffee in it and told me to drink it. Unbelievable rude.
When I mentioned that the place was like Fawlty Towers, they became very offensive and I asked for peace and quiet while trying to have our breakfast, but no, they alternated between each other and continued to carry on rudely and disrespectfully.
Unlike Fawlty Towers, we did not find our time there amusing and would highly recommend that Basil and Madam retire.

Stayed here on our way south. Such a delightful find. Old world charm and beautifully decorated. Fantastic price and friendly hosts, Peter and Marie. We arrived late and they were so gracious. We stayed in the Woodford room which was lovely. A special touch was the home made cookies along with the coffee pod machine. Scrumptious continental breakfast with a hot treat. Definitely recommend.

This B & B provided very comfortable accommodation in a unique building. The personal touch by the owners was a very pleasant change after a series of chain hotels. We were made most welcome. We would strongly recommend Cumquat House to anyone visiting Ipswich, QLD.

After a bad experience with a B&B some years ago, I was reluctant to stay at one again. However Marie and Peter made up for that in spades. The property is an old era design but well set up and in a very quite location. You can acutely just keep to yourself if you want. The ensuite sold us. Close to restaurants, etc. Breakfast and service was great. The hosts were great, not wishy washy, just normal people.

My wife and I spent a night at Cumquat House having pre-booked directly (after our flight from New Zealand) to sleep in the Emsworth suite.
What a very pleasant experience it was to be greeted by Peter ,who the following morning prepared a very nice breakfast for us also.
The bedlinen was a feature (nicely pressed) and the cleanliness of the room was obviously paramount..
We did notice the awards from Booking.com and Hotels.com both featured very highly, truly worthy ratings.
Well done Peter and Marie, you are truly an asset to Ipswich, keep up the fine standards.

Simply one of the nicest, cleanest, most comfortable, beautiful, warm, welcoming, there are not enough superlatives to describe our stay here. The hosts, Marie and Peter have created a haven.We had one of the best nights sleep ever - they have not stinted on expense to ensure the weary traveller gets rest - a superb king size mattress and choice of pillows, high thread count sheets, range of coverings and blinds and sweeping curtains to ensure darkness. With an adjoining sitting room, a balcony and ensuite the room was spacious and tastefully furnished. Breakfast is included in the rate and was fresh, home made and delicious - patic the 3 cheese pie. Guests can use the lounge room, dining room and kitchen and outdoor BBQ on the balcony during their stay. Peter and Marie have thought of everything and are extremely helpful, friendly and professional. They are the epitome of hospitality at its best.
Do yourself a favour and stay at Cumquat House. Simply superb.
