Guest Reviews

• Rae (10/5): Quiet, cozy escape in natural surrounds. - This cozy guesthouse has everything you need - and more! Beautiful spacious bedrooms- with comfy beds; plenty of hanging space and excellent lighting. Blackout curtains throughout the house were excellent. The shower was nice and big and the products provided were high quality. Kitchen well set out, everything super clean. We used the heating , as it was cold & wet outside; and it warmed all spaces well. The outdoor decking was our entertainment- as plenty of gorgeous native birds came for their morning feed. At night we watched some Netflix on the giant tv. The quiet surrounding & tall local trees made this a lovely 2 day escape. There was nothing I didn't like. This, I think was one of, if not the most impressive guest house I have ever stayed in.

I loved watching all the different birds that came to visit and eat the seed provided by the host. I even had a visit from the resident wombat. A very pretty walk from the cottage to the nearby beach. Lots of books to read, too. I could have stayed for a week!

• Spicer (10/5): A wonderful place to stay, in a pretty setting - This property was a delight to stay at. It has been lovingly decorated & includes beautiful paintings by the owner as well as thoughtful, quality touches throughout. Given it’s quite a distance from supermarkets & there aren’t many eating-out options near it (other than the pub), I’d recommend you do all your shopping elsewhere & bring all your provisions with you. The kitchen has everything you need. You will thoroughly enjoy your stay here. Nothing. It’s perfect!
• Edmund (9/5): It was quiet and private and would recommend it to my friends - The property was very clean and easy to maintain Location was a little out of the way

• Jeffrey (10/5): Brilliant - Beautifully appointed, lovely decor, excellent location, very comfortable with everything you could need. The hosts were delightful. The real bonus was the bird seed to attract an amazing selection of wonderful birds onto the back deck. Lorikeets should be nicer to other birds! We could/should have stayed longer

• Tim (10/5): Lovely modern cottage with all the mod cons you could want for a few day stay. - Lovely modern cottage with all the mod cons you could want for a few day stay.

• Lesley (10/5): Outstanding quality and location. - Stylish and beautiful. Immaculately clean and perfectly equipped with top quality furniture and fittings. Kitchen of the highest specification and the bathroom was of a standard beyond any I have ever seen. Bed very comfortable and the setting of the guesthouse beautiful. Suzanne the proprietor was lovely too. Definitely a guesthouse in which we want to spend a lot more time in the future. Absolutely nothing!
• Lily (8/5): A beautiful , peaceful bush setting. - We love the bush setting with native trees /plants and birds. It is quiet yet is a short drive to Metung - which is a lovely spot - and the Lakes entrance. Good amenities including pay TV ! How the house was built to minimise bush fire risk is interesting. Nothing in particular. But maybe the spaciousness is great for a family.
• Jacky (10/5): Very nice stay - The house was more spacious than anticpated, with 2 bedrooms, living room, and a kitchen. The room is clean and comfy and the kitchen was very nice. We cooked some simple breakfast and late night meals. The house provides birdfeed and you can just pour some outside the patio and birds will fly over and have breadkfast with you. It's a short 5min drive to Metung city or 15min drive to Lake Entrance. Susanne was very helpful via messages and provide detailed instruction for checking-in. Can't think of anything bad :)
• Russell (10/5): You’ve got to try this place…..beautiful - Beautiful spacious guesthouse with everything and more!

• Rick (8/5): Loved visiting Metung - Nice country feel next to the marina, you can walk into town and get your daily exercise, quiet location with beautiful parrots to feed in the mornings. Great coffee shops in town.
• Liz (10/5): Great place to relax. - Location was amazing, very quiet and surrounded by bush and birdlife. The provision of birdseed was a bonus and we enjoyed the variety of birds that visited. It was all lovely. Attention to detail was excellent with special touches such as quality shampoo and we really liked the swap a book, bookcase.
• Lisa (10/5): Nice way to end a 7 week holiday - How peaceful it was. Ease of entry. Very clean and a comfortable king size bed. Fully equipped kitchen N/A

• Wilson (10/5): Beautiful location and lovely comfortable accommodation. - A lovely unit in a beautiful setting. Spotlessly clean, lovely comfortable furniture and a comprehensively appointed kitchen with everything needed to prepare meals if desired. Loved Gilly's this was our second stay. Nothing it was perfect.
• Monique (10/5): Very impressive, comfortable place to stay amongst the trees! - This is a hidden little treasure! Our stay was brief but we were so impressed with the gorgeous guest house. Highly recommend, very comfortable beds and pillows and so peaceful! The extra bonus are the beautiful red parrots that came in for their morning feed. Very close to Metung to duck in for dinner.
• Max (10/5): Enjoyable and comfortable stay in semi bushland setting. - Really like this place. Have stayed before. It has plenty of space and all the facilites a traveller needs. Being in semi bushland setting its great for seeing the local birdlife and very quiet at night. Tourist destinations in Metung, Raymond Island and Lakes Entrance are a short drive away.
• Lea (9/5): We had a very comfortable one night stay and would definitely come again - Well appointed, clean and very comfortable. A coffee plunger would have been good to have as well as the espresso machine
• Sandra (10/5): Lovely, clean house with bush surrounds not far from Metung - Susanne's beautiful house is comfortable and quiet, surrounded by bush. Very clean and well-equipped with nice touches like birdseed for the birds, bbq, etc. King size bed was very comfortable and there was a fabulous bathroom. Quiet roads for walking and a great base for exploring the area with a short drive to Metung. Nothing
• Taranga (10/5): A beautiful, quiet place to stay, very clean and comfortable. Highly recommend - Very comfortable and clean. Would stay here again. Highly recommend.
• Margaret (9/5): Superb -
• Morant23 (10/5): Blown away. - Faultless and beautiful. Hand feeding the Rosella's on the balcony with the birdseed supplied just shows how much care and attention the owners have poured into this accommodation. Would love to stay again and will highly recommend. Nothing not to like here.
• Arronp (10/5): Exceptional - Was an absolute pleasure to stay there. Amazing owners, amazing location, amazing wildlife. Just a flawless stay really. ✨️
• Bill (10/5): Exceptional -
• Tiffenny (9/5): Excellent peaceful comfy stay, recommend! - Excellent stay. Quiet location. Very clean. Comfy beds. Large size good toiletries to use. We loved putting out the bird seed and seeing the rosellas, as well as other birds. Definitely recommend. Liked everything but guests might need to know there is only a smaller microwave size separate oven rather than a full size one, if planning on cooking. Our pizza we bought just about fit in!
• Carole (10/5): Outstanding Property in a glorious wooded setting - Spacious, light, airy and spotlessly clean. Lovely balcony overlooking the woods. Walking track to the lake where you can swim off the jetty. We like the house so much we extended our time by 3 days. It was beautifully appointed with everything you could want. At the end of 5 months travelling in Australia/ NZ it was the best value place we stayed for the quality, and one of our favourites overall. Nothing. It was all lovely. Be aware it is not a guesthouse in the European sense. The property is self-contained.
• Marilyn (10/5): The perfect place to get away and recharge :) - I stayed here with one of my friends for a relaxing girl’s weekend. The attention that was paid to all the little things was fantastic! At home I have a little heater in the bathroom and I usually have to forgo it when I travel - this was the one place that had one and I felt so at home! There was also birdseed and feeders on the gorgeous outside balcony and lorikeets, gallahs and rosella all came to feed so we got to have a really close look and photos with them. It was very clean, spacious and cosy. All the modern amenities you could need were there and the shower was BEAUTIFUL. I should also note that all the artwork that’s hung up on the walls is painted by the owner and I really enjoyed looking at it - very talented! A very restful and pleasant place to stay and would be appropriate for anyone whether it’s a friend trip, a romantic couple’s getaway or a small family (there is room for at least 4 people to sleep). Very close to everything you could need or any place you could want to go in Lakes Entrance. I couldn’t recommend it more!
• Veronica (10/5): Exceptional - We were blessed to spend a night at this property. Set amongst gum trees, we were greeted by the colourful birdlife. The owners even left birdseed to feed them. This added to the therapeutic and tranquil feel of the property. We would highly recommend Gillys guest house as it has everything you need for a comfortable stay. That we were staying only one night
• Sandra (10/5): Gillys guest house 👍👍 - Very spacious and clean. Quiet location. The unit had everything you needed for your stay.The bathroom had a very large walk shower. Also included in the bathroom was a washer and dryer. The kitchen had a full sized fridge. The ceiling fan in the bedroom was great and quiet. Sue, the host was lovely. I would definitely recommend staying there. N/A
• Masniary (9/5): Overall, the cottage offers a fantastic retreat with immaculate cleanliness and helpful hosts - We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the cottage; it was not only immaculately clean but also charming. The owner, who lives nearby, was incredibly accommodating and eager to assist us during our visit. The kitchen was meticulously organized and fully equipped, making meal preparation a breeze. We had a delightful experience and would eagerly return for another stay The only aspect we felt could be improved upon is the location. Unfortunately, there isn't a supermarket in close proximity to the cottage, so it's important for travelers to plan ahead and bring along any necessary provisions. However, despite this minor inconvenience, the cottage itself offers a wonderful retreat for a relaxing staycation.
• Chris (10/5): Peaceful experience in excellent accommodation. - Spacious, clean, comfortable and lovely surroundings. Nothing.
• Karla (10/5): Our stay was very enjoyable and we felt at home. - The guest house was well thought out and contained everything we needed. Quality bedding and furnishings too. Air-conditioned with a ceiling fan in The bedroom. A verandah and out door seating area. All of which made our stay lovely. The steps to the guesthouse could be a little bit lower (as i have bad knees) but is a minor fix.
• Malcolm (10/5): Among the trees near Metung - Beautifully maintained apartment among the trees, just north of Metung. Wonderful bird life. Kitchen well appointed and spotlessly clean. Comfortable bed. Huge bathroom. Nothing really.
• Emma (10/5): Perfect place to stay - Quality furniture and fittings, all the mod cons, very clean. Nothing
• Mark (9/5): We absolutely loved our stay! Cannot stress how lovely! - The house is really well designed. It is adjacent to the owners house but totally private. Large bathroom/laundry and fully equipped kitchen. Lovely outlook over the grounds. Hard to fault! I felt that the quality of the furnishings didn’t quite match up to the excellent design of the house.
• Wilson (10/5): Great location, a comfortable ambience and a delightful stay. - It was spacious, well appointed, lovely comfortable furniture. Lovely artwork throughout. Beautiful native garden outlook. The kitchen was extremely well appointed with all the utensils required. The bathroom was spacious and accessible. The owners were deightful. Nothing -it was a lovely stay. We look forward to returning in the future.
• Vanessa (10/5): Thank you for a lovely, peaceful environment to enjoy our anniversary. Gilly's guesthouse is a gem! - Peaceful, spacious accommodation. From the outside it is hard to see how the accommodation would be inside, upon opening the door we were surprised to find such an open and well designed space, with lovely comfortable furnishings. The native environment and birds were a beautiful sight, a lovely reminder of the beauty of our gorgeous country. Thoughtful accommodation - everything provided, pod coffee, variety of teas, cooking basics and many thoughtful touches. Most highly rated for presentation and immaculately clean accommodation. Thank you! We didn't find anything we didn't like, we were very comfortable. We didn't cook as we ate out, but the kitchen seemed to have everything required and more.
• Alice (10/5): Fabulous. - The property is meticulously kept, it had everything you could need. It is a beautiful and peaceful setting, with all different types of birds visiting just outside the window. The beds were very comfortable and the sheets beautiful to sleep on. It felt very inviting and relaxing. I would definitly go back again. It is wonderful vaule for money, it is in a bush setting rather than by the lakes or ocean, but a tiny five minute walk and you can get to the water through a little bush track.
• Josie (10/5): Definitely recommend for stay. - quiet yet convenient location, clean and comfort bed, exceptional kitchenette and laundry facilities, really enjoyed the view from patio and in-house art work by Suzanne ( the host). Can’t think of anything!
• Max (10/5): Exceptional - Great location in semi rural bushland setting. It was nice to see and feed the local birds.
• Marlene (10/5): We loved Tilly’s it was clean comfortable and had everything we needed - Very very clean and all you could want Nothing
• Janet (10/5): This was our second stay and we would happily return - Beautiful and peaceful setting. The kitchen is well set up and the beds comfortable. We enjoyed sitting in the attractive lounge area and watching the many birds which arrived at dusk and again in the morning.
