I spent the weekend at Flock Hill staying in one of the three bedroom Lockwood cottages. Very comfy and warm once the gas heater was fired up. Ample parking and very roomy. Possibly a bit under-lit in the lounge kitchen area as the lit was a bit dull for reading. It's possibly time for a small refresh of the units... More

After some very small hotel rooms we were delighted to stay in a rustic cabin. These cabins have loads of room to move around, a fire place (GAS) and a lounge room to relax in. While they are a bit shabby (knobs for gas cooktop a little melted) and even a bit soiled overall its a country experience. The bathrooms... More

we stayed in one of the cottages for a long weekend, and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. the cottage was clean, and had everything we needed for cooking. Although one night we did eat in the restaurant, which was also very nice. I couldn't fault anything about the place or service. Will definitely go back! :-)

Rooms very comfortable,warm and well -equipped. Fabulous meals and a stunning setting. Real country hospitality and we can't wait to go back!
