The hosts were kind and friendly and catered for vegetarians at breakfast. We had a lovely walk and enjoyed the peace and tranquility of the bush and the cool air. Loved it. Thanks.

We thoroughly enjoyed our overnight stay at Kooringal, thanks to Liz & Jill who had everything in the unit that we could possibly want. Fantastic breakfast served in the dining room made us feel really special. Walk in the morning found lots of kangaroos and bunnies - beautiful views over the Reservoir. Lovely, out of the way, peaceful B&B - would highly recommend.

Our stay was unexpectedly delightful. Wonderful attention to detail...a glass of port and a chocolate for after dinner, home made biscuits for your cup of tea and a fresh gown for after the shower. Kangaroos appeared at sunset to the delight of our overseas visitors, and whatever you would like for breakfast...nothing too much trouble for the lady hosts Jenny and Elizabeth. Great beds. Well done, ladies. I am reluctant to even mention this, because all else was perfect, but the sliding door to the ensuite was very difficult to slide because of the mirror glued to the back of it. Only reason why we rated facilities good and not great.

The ladies did an excellent job looking after us and even got out of bed at 5am to cook Neville a gluten free loaf of bread for breakfast and for us to take with us for the day. They also cooked gluten free sausages. Have recommended the accommodation to several people since coming home.

The living quarters were very comfortable, as was the bed. The homemade lemon cordial in the fridge was wonderful. Breakfast was done as you asked - very nice. It was a little strange that there was no TV in the room. The website advised there was, but if you wanted to watch TV is was done in the communal lounge room. All up the ladies were very friendly and always happy to do what you wished. PS Their cats were very friendly too!
