• lynda (9/5): - Quiet location & accommodation as described. Great bfast. Friendly hosts & comfy stay Would like to wash my own dirty dishes!
• Simon (10/5): Excellent BnB - We booked the two rooms for a family visit. Accomodation comprised of a living room with two bedrooms attached, each bedroom had a ensuite. So plenty of room and very confortable. The property included vege gardens, flower gardens and a pond, with dogs, horses, chickens and ducks, very pleasant to walk around. Hosts were friendly and helpful - and provide a yummy breakfast. I highly recommend a stay here. Nothing.
• Kerry (10/5): Quiet, beautiful accommodation with excellent hosts - The entire experience was absolutely wonderful. Helen and Alan (the hosts) are kind, fascinating people, and we had some wonderful conversations. The room was spacious and extremely well-appointed, clean, and comfortable. The property is only a couple of minutes out of the town, is incredibly quiet and set in beautiful grounds. It was immediately relaxing and enjoyable. Alan served up a creative and delicious breakfast, and the only bad thing was that we had to leave. I was about to move in!
• Josh (10/5): - A beautiful and tranquil setting with fantastically warm hosts, gorgeous breakfasts, and amazing surroundings!
• Audrey (9/5): -
• Sheree and Jason (10/5): Magnificent! Can't wait to return. - Our hosts and their two sweet dogs were wonderful, warm and welcoming folks who thought of every little detail. The room was spotlessly clean and very comfortable. The location is magnificent and the property immaculate and beautifully kept. The breakfast was divine, and we only wish we could have fit more in! Worth every cent. With a shared sitting room between the two guest rooms, it was a little noisy with the chatter and laughter of the guests from the other room, but thankfully it didn't go too late in the night. Otherwise, we couldn't fault it.

• Sofia (10/5): -

I would definitely recommend staying at Meriba. No negatives

Allen would have a fire going for us on return from dinner, great way to relax after the day’s activities. What can I say about the breakfast, delicious, Bircher muesli, yoghurt, to die for rhubarb, fresh eggs, bacon spinach the list goes on. Nothing we loved it all
• m_shahz (10/5): Amazing experience, beautiful surroundings - The breakfast was great we loved it; the location has a rural setting which is ideal place to be away from city life.

We plan to visit it again in summers. I loved everything about the property and the facilities provided.

• Kate (9/5): Fabulous stay in Bundanoon! - The friendliness of the owners made this stay absolutely fantastic. The breakfast was delicious and we enjoyed the games available in the lounge room while we had a glass of wine by the wood fire. Allan‘s breakfast was also delicious. We loved walking around the property and through the gardens with beautiful lemon trees and chooks. Nothing, we loved everything about it and will definitely stay again.
• 千穂 (10/5): - ホストがとても気さくなご夫婦で、あたたかみのある空間で、安心して滞在することができました。
• Gordon (10/5): Certainly a piece of Paradise! - The location was one to remember - the accommodation had an adjoining sitting room with a wood fireplace (made the stay even more special). Both Helen and Alan were fantastic hosts - the breakfast was exceptional - they kept us both entertained during our visit. Would certainly recommend the stay to those who want a most enjoyable experience! We are very keen to visit Meriba again - unfortunately the poor weather limited the activities during our stay! The beautiful surrounds were still evident even with the challenging wet weather.
• Linda (10/5): A lovely stay with warm and welcoming hosts. - Breakfast was lovely and Alan and Helen were warm attentive hosts. We had a great time.
• Fleur (10/5): Wonderful getaway experience! - Everything was fabulous! From the moment we arrived (very late at night!) we were warmly welcomed to a roaring fire in the lounge and a warm bedroom. Our hosts went above and beyond in looking after us and we felt very spoilt! Our breakfasts were delicious and our hosts made it possible for us to watch our favourite footy team on Kayo. The location was easy to get to and in beautiful surroundings. I highly recommend this bed and breakfast for anyone seeking a quiet getaway and to relax! Nothing, it was all positive!
• Reena (8/5): Lovely weekend getaway - We had a wonderful stay at Meriba B&B! Helen and Allan were such lovely and friendly hosts, it truly felt like a little slice of heaven.

Bella and Suki their dogs were a joy to have around. Delicious Bircher muesli followed by a hot breakfast each of our 2 day stay. Fresh figs from the garden. Fruit and home made almond cookies always at the ready. Allan's beautiful garden with a Celtic circle of stones, a carefully developed walkway around the rim of the homestead with a special covered spot for one to sit and reflect, a warm and cosy lounge area with a wood fire to come in to from the cold outdoors at night. A graceful dead tree on a hill as you enter the property and a night sky to die for. Absolutely nothing comes to mind.
• Kara (9/5): Comfortable accommodation & breakfast in a beautiful setting with great hosts. - Accommodation and grounds very comfortable and well appointed. Hosts Helen & Allen very welcoming and provided an excellent experience. Beautiful location on the edge of a national park and just outside of the town of Bundanoon. All good, suited our requirements perfectly. Great weekend escape but would recommend having a car. However, could get there by public transport (eg. train) and short taxi /Uber trip.

• Chelsea (10/5): Absolutely wonderful stay at Meriba B and B! - Our stay at Meriba B & B was fantastic! Helen & Alan were such gracious hosts, and the property and gardens are absolutely gorgeous. It is close to town, and we loved exploring the lovely shops (& market on Sunday) in Bundanoon, and it was a very quick drive to Bowral for more exploring. We also had a wonderful time walking through the gardens at Meriba with Helen & Alan's two lovely dogs, Suki & Bella. Our room was absolutely spotless, and the bed was very comfortable. And to top it all off, a wonderful homecooked breakfast - absolutely delicious! Thank you very much Helen & Alan for our wonderful stay! We will be recommending Meriba B & B to all our friends and family. Nothing, everything was fantastic!
• Michael (10/5): Magical stay - The relaxed atmosphere, the gardens and the breakfast was amazing
• Kate (9/5): Perfect place to rest our heads for a weekend wedding. - Excellent, proper B&B with wonderful beds - we slept-in on Sunday they were so comfy! With a wedding in Sutton Forest it was a great location to stay. Fabulous home-cooked breakfast too! Beautiful hosts & four-legged companions :) It was not an issue for us but the bus to the wedding venue could not get down River View Road & is too far to walk to Gullies Road where the bus was waiting. We drove to the wedding so was not a problem at all - just be warned if that is your plan.
• Britton (8/5): Very good -
• Anita (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gerald (10/5): Delightful stay , felt like home - Delicious breakfast with fruit from the hosts garden. Best home cooked B & B breakfast we have had. Allan and Helen were delightful. The location is superb, beautiful rural setting close to town. Tranquil
• Stephen (10/5): A pleasant enjoyable place to stay with attentive and interesting hosts - Located on a large parcel of land with plenty of lawns and gardens. Friendly dogs to greet you and horses to pat. Hosts were welcoming and friendly. Breakfast included homemade bircher muesli and homemade marmalade and a choice of cooked options to go with the juice and fresh fruit.
• Glenn (9/5): If you want somewhere to unwind and appreciate serenity, then this should be your go-to place! - Alan and Helen were wonderful hosts. My only regret was not spending more time there. The home-made bircher muesli tasted great, and the whole experience was peaceful and relaxed. The property itself is lovely, and the two placid dogs were eager to show us around. Highly recommended!
• Junebelle (10/5): Exceptional - Helen and Alan and the whole family (including Suki and Bella) were amazing hosts and did so much to make our stay the best we've ever experienced. We arrived late evening and Helen and Alan unexpectedly made us a dinner that they had on hand so we didn't have to drive back into town and my little toddler could explore their beautiful property, which she loved. Breakfast was delicious- Bircher muesli with yoghurt and pureed rhubarb from the garden. The property is a - from the veggie/fruit garden to the tree house built by Alan and the small dam surrounded by lush green grass and bushes. Statues can be found and a cute gazebo. The guest bedrooms and living area were clean and cosy great for a little retreat. The bed is very comfortable. Bundanoon is such a quaint little town to look at. We didn't have enough time to explore, but wish we did. I should have stayed for at least 2 nights instead of 1.
• Senchang (10/5): It’s excellent! - The hosts are extremely nice! The house is warm, embedded beautiful environment. I can feel the passion of life with Meriba and Alan, Suky and Bella. None

• Diana (10/5): Exceptional -
• Joseph (10/5): Exceptional - friendly people and very comfortable accomodation. Great breakfast as well. Would recommend the bundanoon folk festival.
• Mark (7/5): Good -
• Chris (9/5): Superb - Beautiful location and home. Friendly and informative hosts. Friendly dogs are a bonus. We were the only guests, which was great, because the two guest rooms are close, and share a lounge area and it could be a bit awkward if both rooms were occupied.
• Ross (10/5): Exceptional -
• Howard (9/5): Great B&B in a beautiful & quiet location. - Great location with very interesting, informative and helpful hosts. Close by national park with good walks possible from the property.
• Geoff (10/5): Our best ever B&B experience - Helen and Allan were wonderful hosts who escorted us on some of the very interesting bush walks on their 30 hectare property. They were so accommodating. Coupled with the excellent general facilities this made Meriba our best ever B&B stay. We are pretty discriminating and do not make these comments lightly. The multi-faceted, extensive gardens were also a highlight. The early checkin gave us a great opportunity to enjoy the property to fullest advantage. We will be back at the earliest opportunity. We did not like not being able to stay longer🤡
• Alan (10/5): Exceptional -
• Gayle (9/5): Relaxing stay with welcoming hosts who generously shared their home and provided a delicious breakfast - Quiet and pretty location with beautiful garden near National park
• Rosalie (10/5): Perfect getaway spot, with comfort, charm and welcoming hosts, supplying a hearty breakfast. - Idyllic location, along a country track off a main road, but easily accessible in our small car. Set a few minutes out of the charming town of Bundanoon, a family favourite, so ideal getaway! Nothing comes to mind.
• David (10/5): Greeted by friendly dogs and even friendlier owners who went out of their way to accommodate dietary issues and delighte - Wonderful garden and forest adjacent to the National Park
• John (8/5): Very good -
• Alex (10/5): Beautiful location and a wonderful stay that would suit a weekend away. - Excellent customer service and lovely management. Facilities were modern and comfortable. No complaints! Just be aware that access is by gravel track, so be cautious if not driving an SUV.
• Tatiana (10/5): Relaxing friendly retreat. - Although it was our first time at Meriba B and B, it felt like we were visiting friends. The place is all on its own next to the forest, very quiet. The bed was very comfy and the breakfast lovely. Outdoors flowering bushes, lemon trees and chooks gave a feeling of a country retreat. Helen and Allan are great hosts.
• Alan (9/5): Superb -
• Sally (10/5): A real “home away from home” experience. - Helen and Alan are gracious hosts. The rooms are comfortable and the location is lovely.
