Hopewell Lodge

We self catered, but the mussel entree in the evening and the warm scones at morning tea were a wonderful surprise.

The weather and the fact that" booking.com" still clipped the ticket for 2 nights accom. when we only had 1 night, and that the booking was for only 2 people when we were 3 so had to except bunk beds instead of our booked room.

The property is very well kept. There were lots of toys and activities to enjoy. The vegetation on property was beautiful. The view from my room was beautiful. Such a relaxing environment. The common kitchen has all the cooking tools you'd need and is super clean. There are great books to exchange. Minimal bugs.

We didn't see a puzzle.

An amazingly relaxed 2 days and Mike and Lynley were so welcoming We would definitely visit again

It was perfect

A very relaxing place to stay. The rooms were comfortable. The bathrooms were clean. The grounds are fun to explore. We had a lovely time cooking and eating our hand-harvested mussels. The glow worms and bioluminescence are magical.

Everything! Honestly, Hopewell Lodge is marvellous and we're so pleased we stumbled across it. The setting is gorgeous, Mike & Lynley are excellent and welcoming hosts, the bed was very comfortable, the room was lovely and the kitchen facilities were exceptional. We can't fault it! The social aspect was a surprising bonus too, it was lovely to meet others over mussels & homemade bread in the evening, but it didn't feel like there were that many people staying there the rest of the time - a great balance of privacy & people-ing! My only complaint is our own fault - we only had one night to spend here and it would have been better to spend at least two, but probably more... and Lynley did recommend that at the time we booked, so she did her best to help us! We'll know better next time... and there will definitely be a next time!

The setting of Hopewell Lodge is so beautiful and serene. A wonderfully equipped kitchen and the many shared areas -both indoor and out were comfortable and spacious. The spa pool was so wonderful overlooking the bay. Above all of this, was the amazing hosts, Mike and Lynley, who were so welcoming and generous with their time. We had a delightful time, Thank you so much.

Magical place to stay with everything you need for a relaxing holiday with or without kids. Owners, staff and guests (most of which were returning guests) are what made our stay, the views are amazing, facilities clean and the activities available were an added extra. Mussel night and pizza were delicious. We will be back!
