Independent in Port Germein from AU$90

"HIGHLY recommended! The cabins are comfortable and neat. All bedding, towels and toiletries are provided (although consider taking your own pillow if you have particular needs). The bakery next door is just lovely, although it closes at 3pm. Bacon and eggs for breakfast was delicious! The birds are lovely and friendly! Charlie the cockatoo says "hello Charlie" and then puts his head down for you to give him scratches. Ernie the galah wiggles around so you can pat the soft feathers on his back. The property is a quick, easy drive from Laura where there is a pub, grocery store, etc. It's a lovely part of the country, and your visit will be a relaxing getaway (you may or may not be able to connect to the internet via your mobile data). Don't forget the aeroguard for the flies!"

"Very happy with the condition of the cabin and surprised at how much room we had. Very quiet, close to shops, easy parking, nice people at reception. One small thing - would be great to have a shelf or somewhere to put toiletries etc in the bathroom, and a coat hook to hang clothes on. Otherwise no problems."

"Bathrobes. And good ones on a regional run what a treat. I left Ellen Hotel feeling rested. Modern rooms, improved air conditioning since the last time I stayed. Dark and quiet for a good night sleep. Service friendly, the lady who served served me at breakfast made me want to linger alas I had to move on for work. "

"Most enjoyable stay."

"What a relaxing spot. The Honeyeater birds and the Bees were amazing, and my old regret was not having more time to spay there. The old cars, bikes and tractors were an added attraction for me. Highly recommended."

"Awesome as usual"

"We managed to get a room last minute that slept 5 people. The beds were queen size and the facilities were very clean."

"Clean and comfortable, there were a lot of rooms, but noise was not an issue, continental breakfast was a pleasant surprise and our evening meal on Saturday night was excellent. "
