Guest Reviews
- George (10/5): - In the country and very quiet.
- Raymond (10/5): - A lovely country retreat just out of Mt Gambier. Quiet, comfortable and spacious. Fully equipped kitchen. Hearing the birds singing was a joy.
- Donna (4/5): - Really disappointed, I travel regularly for work but this was a private weekend away. I was looking forward to the country, quaint cottage and the accommodation was as i expected. I am incredibly disappointed in the fact that the accommodation was supported to include a continental breakfast and yet there was nothing there not even bottled water. There was coffee/sugar sachets and a couple of the milk thimbles but nothing else so after driving 6 hours we had to drive back into townto buy basics. I then received an email with a receipt after i left with todays date as the charge on my card even though i paid in full 23 days ago. No response from my query from the hosts at all, I wanted confirmation that they had not recharged me without authorisation.
- Meredith (10/5): - Lovely surroundings and room spacious with comfy bed and nice linens
- Min Min (8/5): - Quiet, with a view with animal and nature. 10min drive to towns for shopping or tourist area, very convenient. Family friendly and kitchen area allows cooking was nice.
- Jennifer (10/5): - Loved our there, very comfy. Just a couple of things could be improved - The step down into the bath room worried us, we left the light on overnight to remind us. Also the path to our chalet, needs a couple of areas tidied up, as pavers are lifting. Those are OHS issues, as these are big items with older visitors like us. We can't "afford" to have falls. Just an idea as well, If the big mirror was moved or removed, a much larger TV at a lower level would be fantastic. The current position is much to high.
- David (8/5): Cozy comfortable retreat - Comfortable home. The family that managed it were wonderful to work with. Would use again.
- Stephen (6/5): - Property needs repair and updating. Quaint is now looking tired.
- Michael (8/5): - The accommodation is surrounded by a pretty garden and an orchard and is in a very quiet and tranquil location. It is down the road from an excellent restaurant.
- Martin (8/5): - Nice peaceful location
- richard (8/5): - The owner was fantastic giving us directions when we were lost.
- Matthew (10/5): - Lovely Natural Surroundings, an abundance of Birds, Chalets themselves were Clean, Tidy, well Serviced.
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Beautiful and relaxing stay. Really enjoyed the 2 nights we spent there.
- Shan C. (10/5): Recommended - The place is nice and clean. Will book it again next time
- Verified traveler (8/5): - unique little cottage very well set up clean and cosy
- Clarissa (10/5): - Claredon Chalets are beautifully appointed accomodation meeting all the needs of a family. Thae gardens are brilliant and the birds are highly entertaining. Peaceful country accomodation within great proximity of so many things to see and do.
- Denise (6/5): Lovely location. - We enjoyed our stay in the peaceful countryside.
- Verified traveler (4/5): - The room had a very bad odour when we arrived/ we left the screen open to allow fresh air in however this made no improvement. There was no one at reception so we couldn’t request a new room. I believe the smell was possibly a dead possum in the roof ???? Also the carpet was a type of rough hessian material which was very coarse on the feet. Overall a very disappointing stay 😐
- michael (10/5): Stay here! - Just a fantastic place to stay. Wonderful room and outside had gorgeous landscaping! Wish we could have spent more than one night here
- Verified traveler (8/5): Okay - but - Clarendon chalets are a long way from Mt.Gambier. That said they are comfy, and wellish equipped. Biggest issue is poor breakfast. Toast and Vegemite is NOT a "continental breakfast", that requires yoghurt and pastries. Perhaps better for families than couples.
- Dianne (8/5): - The chalets are very comfortable in lovely surrounds and are very quiet. No traffic or street noise and with breakfast included and did, no parking cost ,was good value. Would be more than happy to stay again. The only "problem " was that there was no mobile coverage and we were unable to connect to the wifi. But this just added to the peace and relaxation.
- GaryJ (8/5): Great chalet with serene ambience - Spent one night with family. Great location and serene ambience. Chalet was clean and comfortable. Enough room with two separated queen beds. Definitely recommend to anyone visiting Mount Gambier!
- Helen (10/5): Welcoming - From the moment you drove down the avenue of trees we knew this place was special and we we're right.
- Susan (2/5): Avoid - On arrival, no-one in reception but they left a note. Room provided was not the cottage we had booked & paid for 6 months in advance. Instead, had an older & substandard room from about 30 years ago, woken at midnight by people one of the adjoining rooms who talked loudly for the next hour. Next morning, asked why we had been downgraded. They gave our cottage to someone else at the last minute...."..Oh, didn't we tell you...?". Then attempted to provide us with a small part-refund, but instead charged our credit card MORE.
- Paul (10/5): Immaculate, great owners - Excellent property close to Mt. Gambier
- Keith (10/5): - Lovely, private, quiet location.
- Darren (8/5): Studio Suite - We saw no staff but everthing was organised. A beautiful quiet spot. Room was very comfortable but the windows in the raked ceiling had no curtains and let way too much light in.
- Jim (10/5): Tranquillity tucked away inside paradise! - If you like peace and quiet, a comfortable bed, and nice evening walks, then Clarendon Chalets is a must. True, Mount Gambia is a 10 minute drive away, but you have the advantage of excellent food in The Barn Restaurant just 300 metres up the road. Don't miss this experience!
- Verified traveler (2/5): Disaster - Having booked this accommodation through Wotif we arrived late at night to find no record of our reservation. Not the hotels fault they had not been notified. However I consider this a lucky escape as from what I saw the development is run down, dark and dismal. So despite,having to drive for another hour to find a motel I'm glad we had to!!!
- Julian (10/5): A gem of a place - We loved staying at Clarendon Chalets and will definitely be back another time. The house was lovely and the staff were really welcoming and friendly. The location is peaceful and attractive. A great place and a very reasonable rate for the quality.
- Joel (4/5): Meh.... There are better choices in Mt. Gambier - I visit Mt Gambier every 4 weeks for business and have stayed at a few different places. Decided to try this one because of online reviews. Staff/Owners not present other than just happening to be there when I arrived. Room was dusty and a wet, dirty rag was left in the toilet on top of the commode and the entire toilet just smelled bad. TV didn't receive local channel. Attempted to use the fireplace in my chalet and even though directions were followed to a tee, smoke backed up into the room to the point of the smoke alarm going off even with all windows and door open as well as both fans running. And since no owner was on site nobody even checked to see why the alarm was going off. Smoke alarm located about 10 feet above on ceiling so impossible to reach. On the second day I had to call to ask if I could get new towels as they only service the apartments every 3 days apparently. On the plus side, the ground were nice and it was quiet. Seemed overpriced for what you get. Won't stay here again.
- J. (10/5): - Cleanliness: Spotless; Beautiful location- gardens, lots of birdlife and a walnut grove to stroll through.

- Verified traveler (8/5): Change kitchen ware - Time to change the kitchen ware
- ANNIE (8/5): Visiting Mount Gambier - VERY COMFORTABLE -ONLY STAYED TWO NIGHTS
- LJ (10/5): - I have already recommended this place to friends & family & would be happy to stay again.
- Kalij04 (6/5): A good place for extended family - The accommodation is in a cluster with all dwellings close together in a rural setting on a smallish property with walnut trees. Luckily, we were the only couple staying so it was quiet and private. It would be preferable to stay as a family or group of friends. A car is essential as it is a few kilometres out of Mount Gambier. We stayed in the Orchard room which is partially renovated and quite cosy with a wood burning heater as well as a reverse cycle air conditioner. There are some rooms with a pleasant aspect but disappointingly, the lounge window does not take advantage of it. Breakfast provisions were unimaginative and modest. Overall, it was overpriced compared with what is available elsewhere.
- michelle (10/5): - Cleanliness: Immaculate; felt so warm and the place was just we were after. Definitely would stay there again

- Verified traveler (8/5): Country comfort on the Great Ocean Road - We arrived late and found an envelope at the office with our name on it. The suite was HUGE and the owners had left a few breakfast items for us in the kitchen which was a welcome surprise. Located next to a walnut grove amid working farms and country homes, this was a great place to kick off our drive on the Great Ocean Road. Very homey. Wish we had had more time to enjoy the beautiful garden and grounds.
- Greg (10/5): - Facilities: Home away from home; Value: Fantastic; Service: Outstanding; Cleanliness: Beautiful; The grounds are lovely.
- Nate (8/5): - Facilities: Good; Value: Affordable; Service: Basic, Polite; nice place
- Verified traveler (10/5): So much nicer than a hotel, and quiet! - I stayed in the studio, which was very roomy. Country charm without being cliched. I like to be away from noisy highways and this one is a bit off the beaten track, although the mobile coverage makes downloading emails slow. For a cooked breakfast, The Barn is just down the road. Will certainly be coming back to this place, it's very pretty.
- Ashley (8/5): - Facilities: Above average; Service: Professional; Cleanliness: Pleasant;
- David (10/5): Idyllic - We stayed here for two nights on our way to, and way back from, the Great Ocean Road. The first night was in the Studio Chalet (good for a budget option) and the second in the Orchard Chalet (we were upgraded, and were very pleased with this beautiful chalet). Overall the Chalets are extremely clean, comfortable, well-equipped (for cooking) and quiet. We will definitely stay here again if passing through Mount Gambier.
