Wrong type of booking Bests B and B

I was confused by the website site. I thought Best' B and B was a Motel/resort style hotel that offered breakfast. It wasn't. In fact it was an old shearer's shed that had been converted into a modern family home. The design left no feeling of privacy. There was no TV in the room which was very basic, just queen size bed and lamps and this was an upgrade. Far too expensive at 9 when you can be more comfortable at a motel at in Swan Hill.

I felt under constant surveillance, felt paranoid. Being in a private house converted to a Band B is strange only a few doors open to you and the rest with private property, do not enter signs which feels very uninviting. Our hosts ate breakfast with us. The guest bathroom had many little shampoo's soaps but the neatness of the place and the proximity of the hosts made you feel unable to use anything.

To use tea and coffee making facilities you had to use the family kitchen crossing the main family room. This is imposing.

The Pioneer Village was excellent.

Good weekend away stay.

I was happy with the accommodation, it was cheap, friendly staff, clean, it was kept up to date with new technology:) I would recommend other people to stay.

Small town, u have all the normal fast food resturants (maccas, kfc, hungary jacks, la porchetta, and many more).

Go to the river up the road, nice and relaxing.

The Cottage and Gembrook itself was very relaxing, and great place to escape "rat race" of the city.

Very peaceful and certainly relaxing place. The Cottage was a little smaller than we expected after looking at the website photos. This didn't really matter since we enjoyed the views and the isolation from people, since we both work in the CBD. One disappointment was the fact that our Breakfast was supplied to us the day before. When we arrived in the afternoon at the Cottage our Breakfast was in a Hamper which was separated, and we had no idea it was for us, thought it was left by previous guests.

We assumed it would be delivered to our door in the morning or left on the doorstep. Little disappointed also, that our Breakfast consisted of 4 slices Bread and 2 Croisants ,at a cost of per day on top of accomodation. Another thing to note was that there was no Oven in the Cottage, this didn't really matter but if wanted to cook you would have use BBQ or stove top. Apart from Breaky we had great time and would recommend staying again.

But would recommend suppyling own Breakfast.

Great, peaceful and relaxing place. Residents and shopkeepers were very friendly.
