Guest Reviews
- Denise (10/5): Outstanding Accommodation - It was cosy and warm, heaters had been put on before I arrived so was nice and heated. The kitchen/dining/lounge area was a shared space however as I was the only one booked in I had it all to myself. I liked that there was a separate TV in my room so if there had been others staying in the other rooms then I would have been able to watch TV in my room. Breakfast food was provided which I think is outstanding however as I do not eat breakfast did not need to use this.
- Guest (8/5): -
- TG (9/5): Great, clean, quiet - would definitely stay again - Everything was very clean, in excellent condition, comfortable, warm. Breakfast was included. Jayne and Bruce are very nice and very helpful. There are 3 rooms and each of us had a room, the living area was fine for us. If there were 3 couples sharing the living room it would be a bit crowded I think.
- Claus (10/5): - Very nice place, all new
- Sabine (10/5): -
- Nicky (10/5): Fabulous stay, great value for money. - Fabulous room and shared facilities, had everything you needed and self service breakfast was also included. Great value for money and lovely owners. Nothing.

- David (8/5): GREAT TIME IN GORE - Friendly hospitable host, great facilities, clean rooms, shower good, I had similar interests to the host with being interested in motorbikes so that made for an even more interesting stay, The breakfast was certainly adequate but I left out one breakfast item to draw attention to it for my host's sake

- Russell (8/5): Very good -
- Henk (9/5): Superb - Ok. All Ok.
- Karen (10/5): Exceptional -
- Patrick (6/5): I think the booking error rather spoilt our stay at this interesting and well kept accommodation. - location was very good and we enjoyed the quirky nature of the property. Very different. Visit was coloured and rather spoiled by a double booking by Jayne for the proposed second night of our stay. We did receive an apology and were offered an alternative room but this need not meet what we expected and we decided to find alternative accommodation for the balance of our stay in Gore. Also, we did think the serve-yourself-breakfast was unduly basic.
- Diane (10/5): A fabulous quirky B&B with wonderful owners, we loved it! - We were welcomed by the owners on arrival who were so friendly and very welcoming. We had a beautiful en-suite room with doors out to a little patio area overlooking the beautiful garden and gorgeous views beyond - such a great setting! Tea and coffee was available in the shared kitchen/sitting room and there was fresh milk in the fridge. Breakfast was in the pavilion, self service cereals and toast and fab coffee! A very comfy bed too it was a great night’s stay!
- Tony (10/5): It's quiet and comfortable, I need to stay here more often - Left early so no breakfast, but looked great in the kitchen / dining room. Jayne & Bruce are great hosts Leaving early, missed a great coffee
- Ryan (10/5): BOOK THIS PLACE - The place was amazing, the beds were some of the most comfy and the pleasant grounds and gardens around were beautiful. It was clean and Jayne and Bruce were beyond hospitable. They were able to extend our stay without a problem, and they were kind and friendly.
The facilities included a place for food and coffee, a little fridge and animals on the property including a friendly deer named Hazel, as well as a cockatoo and more.
I would recommend this for anyone and we could not have asked for a more beautiful spot. We had a wedding, and the morning of they were hospitable and allowed us to bring the photographer over to take some shots of the groom and groomsmen. They were always smiling and clearly put a lot of love into the place.
Thanks!!! Nothing!
- Aimee (10/5): - Lovely peaceful location, clean and comfy.
- Lorie (10/5): It was a great place, wish we could have stayed longer! - It was a great home with comfortable beds and very close to the beach. We liked everything.
- Billie-jane (10/5): Will 110% stay again - Everything, from the moment we walked up to the front door we were in love with the scenery of this property. You could tell it was well taken care of and full of the hosts love and hard work!!
- Oona (10/5): Exceptional -
- Lindsay (10/5): Travelled to many countries, stayed in huge number of accomodations ….this is right up there as being in the exceptional - Absolutely immaculate prepared , spotlessly clean. Very impressive layout , lot of nice touches.very nice owner wanting to ensure that their quests had the best possible stay.
Extremely good valued for money. Nothing at all. It was perfect
- Anna (10/5): best place in Gore - Great location and great facilities
- Verified traveler (10/5): - Very clean. Nice garden setting. Interesting historical paraphernalia around the garden.
- Carol (8/5): - Our accommodation was excelent.but luckly there was no other guests.
- Jaimee (10/5): Exceptional -
- Les (7/5): Enough said already. - A truly special modern facility with a great view across the Gore valley! The room was excellent and Jayne was a very sociable and informative host. We were particularly taken by the incredible stone work on the columns at the front of the building. I am afraid that when i book a "Bed & Breakfast" place I really do look forward to being supplied with a bit more than, cereal in containers and bread and spreads. I like to get a cooked breakfast option. If not actually supplied, an easy facility to do it yourself. I was a bit disappointed.
- Jenny (9/5): Superb -
- Antonia (10/5): Warm comfortable and welcoming. - Our room was very comfortable, the common lounge and kitchen is also very comfortable and well equiped. The breakfast is a bonus. The views are really lovely and a great bar-b-q area. We were only there for one night but could easily stay much longer. Our hosts were very friendly and helpful. There was nothing I didn't like,
- Sandra (10/5): - Home away from home. Very restful and lovely outlook to the country.
- Sharon (8/5): Great little find. - Awesome little place on the outskirts of town- super clean with a comfy bed, and a lovely rural view from the window. Wonderful friendly host.
- Richard L (10/5): - A quiet secluded property just next to the city. Couldn't have been better.
- Peter (8/5): Everything you need. - Great views. Comfortable bed. Nice towels. Good breakfast. Delicious rhubarb and yoghurt.
- Julie (9/5): Superb - Excellent stay and nice hosts
- Gladys (8/5): - Very lovely views
- Paul (9/5): Superb -
- Karina (10/5): - Lovely B&B. Great facilities, friendly hosts.
- Erna (10/5): Exceptional -
- Rebecca (10/5): Exceptional - Everything was fabulous couldn’t rate this wee gem high enough! Tucked away in the top of gore it’s a perfect wee spot to relax and unwind! The facilities and the hosts were great and the breakfast was delish and just enough to start your day! Will definitely be back!
- Andrew (8/5): Very good, I'd certainly like to stay again. - Very warm and comfortable room - and extremely comfortable bed. It was a shame I was only in residence for such a short time, although that was my doing of course. Thank you.
P.S. The snow was an added bonus!! As I arrived so late, I didn't get to meet you on arrival so I wasn't sure to do about breakfast. I helped myself to coffee and cereal and yoghurt etc but wouldn't have minded a couple of pieces of toast. Not to worry, what I had was good, and I'm sure if I'd have had more time, I'd have been well looked after.
- Pk (8/5): Very good - Great hosts and good clean accommodation. The hosts had included extra items to make the stay more like home. The synthetic bedding was very hot, room was quite stuffy at night especially with the radiators.
- Michael (10/5): Exceptional -
- Richard (8/5): Very good -

- Rodger (8/5): Great location, clean and comfortable stay. - A good selection of continental cereals and spreads for toast. Tidy well presented rooms and surroundings. It had said cooked breakfast was part of the B and B but was not offered. Could hear homeowners next door reasonably clearly so felt like we needed to stay in our room. Wasn't a problem as our room had a t.v and was comfy.

- Ann (10/5): Gorgeous - Gorgeous—quiet— comfy— clean
- NEVILLE (8/5): - Interesting mix of quirky interests on the part of the hosts and mix of animals around the property made for interesting conversation. Being the only guest meant not having to share a bathroom, which was positive.
Breakfast was basic cereal, etc and could have benefited from some fresh fruit.
- Andrea (10/5): Perfect place LOVED staying and very impressed in every way! - Loved staying at The Reservation and will gladly stay again on my next trip!
IMMACULATELY CLEAN! High quality bed and lovely linen!
I stupidly left a charger behind and am going to send a self addressed courier bag down and that wasn’t a problem their end(and I know things like that are a nuisance!)!
Look forward to returning… Probably one bathroom for three bedrooms but I was aware and it wasn’t a problem in my case as only one couple to share it with…

- John (10/5): Exceptional -
- Michael (10/5): - Great location, modern property, friendly hosts, close to tasty food, comfortable bed. LOVED the stay.
- Edward (9/5): Superb -
- Judith (9/5): EV Charger available for guests - Nice spacious feel. Friendly owners very helpful and responsive. Convenient from town.
There is an EV charger installed by owners for guests. Bring your own charging cord. We were able to top up our car in a couple of hours. Overnight would give good charge for a longer journey.
