"If you like nature, this is a good place to stay. You will see Kangaroo around your room in the evening. The room is clean. There are many activities to enjoy your holiday."

"Perfect"

"It was sparkling clean, had all the kitchen equipment we needed and some basic condiments. Loved the hot tub and massage chair! There were also laundry facilities available - and we saw a kangaroo pack right behind the laundry room."

"What a special place. The villas are located in a quiet bush location walking distance into Halls Gap. They are very comfortable, well equipped and good value. Firewood, continental breakfast and a lovely bottle of wine are included. The bed is very comfortable and the spa large and welcoming. There are several villas but they feel private and individual. The grounds are immaculate including a lovely little lake. Beautiful gum trees, Amazing birdlife and wildlife. The caretakers Cameron and Deb are welcoming and caring. Max the owner is easy to communicate with. We would very highly recommend Marwood Villas and a trip to explore the beautiful Halls Gap and Grampians."

"My stay at Halls Haven Holiday Unit was truly relaxing and enjoyable. It’s a lovely place that feels peaceful while still being very close to the town centre, which made it really convenient for getting around and exploring. One of the highlights of the stay was the small animal farm on the property. It was such a unique and charming touch, with kangaroos, alpacas, and sheep wandering around. It added a special, almost countryside feel to the whole experience. There is also a beautiful pond in the middle of the property, which quickly became my favourite spot. It’s perfect for starting the day with a quiet breakfast and coffee, or even enjoying a BBQ in the evening. Sitting by the water with such a calm atmosphere made the stay feel extra special."

"Perfect"

"The holiday park has cabins of different sizes and also sites for campervans. The place was not fully occupied when we checked in, I think there’s only a few occupiers. We got the deluxe cabin and it was big enough for two of us and we liked that we can park outside the cabin. Teh cabin was quite clean and the bed is pretty comfortable. The toilet was very small and the shower is pretty bad. Water would get everywhere when we showered and the temperature is not constant. The heater was non-existent and it was winter and showering was torturous. We were so cold throughout our stay. There’s also some fun rides to rent for about $10 for half an hour. We had some fun with that. Other than that, I would say we liked the stay."

"I’ve spent the better part of a week staying at the Grampian Pioneer Cottages for a solo break. Specifically, the red brick cottage. It was a very pleasurable and peaceful experience and for those few days, I felt like I had my own slice of Halls Gap hence the review title. I could definitely see myself returning in another 12 months Although there are several cottages on the property, they’re sufficiently spaced; not like living on those new estates that are seemingly popping up all over the suburbs. I didn’t hear so much as a peep out of my neighbours all week. By the same token, the owner’s cottage is only a very short walk away and they provide their mobile number so they can be reached if you need assistance. On that note: Aiden and Corrie were both very helpful and delightful to deal with. The cottages are also self contained complete with a fully equipped kitchen, fridge (with a freezer) so you can cook meals and save a fortune on restaurant and/or takeaway meals. On that note: being cottages, there isn’t an option to buy food or drinks on site. There’s a supermarket/general store in town (a short drive) to buy provisions, though. Everything was immaculately clean and the furniture was very comfortable so no complaints there. I was also pleased with the number of towels and flannels provided as well as the pillows and bedding. Between extra blankets, pillows and electric blankets you definitely won’t go cold. You’ll also stay cool during warmer months between the fans and split system. I also enjoyed having my own chickens for company as part of my stay. On my first day, I heard something at my door and upon investigation, I was greeted by a brown chicken whom I christened as Chickadee. She was consistent about bringing her two gal pals at 3:00 pm daily and we had a hen’s party together As to why I didn’t give five stars? A couple of items: - Shower - I can appreciate the owners have made an effort to install modern shower heads and taps while maintaining the facade of a bush cottage bathroom. In saying that, there was nowhere to put toiletries such as a soap dish or shower caddy. They have pump dispensers of shampoo and body wash; however, if you want to use your own stuff then there isn’t anywhere to put it while you’re in the shower. Still on the subject of the shower and my main peeve: unlike most showers, which are on a base or have a lip to keep the water out, this shower had nothing of the sort. As a result, half the bathroom got flooded every night after taking a shower. The cottage is designed to hold 8 people (two queen beds and two sets of bunks) and I ended up using every towel in the cottage to clean up the water; I machine washed them in hot water afterwards and hung them out to dry rather than asking for fresh towels daily. - Rickety staircase - there’s a loft bedroom with one of the queen beds. However, the staircase felt very rickety and made me uncomfortable using it. I stayed on the ground floor in the room wit"

"Everything is great. Clean and well equiped units in a beautiful quiet tree and garden setting. A great stopover on our road trip. So good we stayed on our way to Melb and back. Thankyou to the friendly helpful owners Fiona and Jurek."
