Clean and quiet, and a great location

We have arrived in the property earlier than expected and the staff allowed us for an early check in with no hassle. Bed was upgraded to king suite from double bed. So far our stay was good except from the internet connection. It was lost in the morning.

The staff was friendly and welcoming It was a quick check in Beds n sheets were clean although weren’t that comfortable and gave us sore backs Toilet was leaking water on the floor 3 tubes of full shampoo would’ve been good as we only got 1 tube that was half of shampoo in it as there was 3 of us Overall cleanliness was good There was heating which was great as it was a very cold night

Good

Heating was good

What I liked was the gardens, that's it!! The room given to us was horrible, old, run down, old bathroom, mini kitchen was in the bathroom. no working TV. The bed was so old & soft. This was not what I booked. This was most definitely not what I paid for. When I spoke with reception, he didn't understand my name, could not find our room and when asked why I have this old run-down room & not the one I actually booked, he could not give me an answer. This was a major concern. Eventually he got another colleague to answer my questions, again he could not give me an answer, not sure if he understood what I was asking either. It could either be they did not understand, but I doubt it, or they knew what they were doing and decided to give us a run-down old room. 'Dodgy' is what came to mind. We eventually got what he said was 'an upgrade.' When we got to our room, again the 'so called' mini kitchen was in the bathroom. The bed was so old, that on one side the springs had gone & I was having trouble trying to stay in bed and not roll out. Had the worst sleep as next door you could hear guests talking & then when asleep, could hear them snoring. The walls are paper thin. This accommodation has so much potential, but I feel these new owners don't care. Their priority is money first and worry about the maintenance "never". If passing through and desparate for a bed, then yep this is the place, but if making a special night or weekend away, then keep looking or keep driving.

Quiet and comfortable in lovely country town

Room and ensuite was clean, bed was comfortable and heating good. Parking outside our room was very tight. The track leading up to the property did not have a proper sign pointing to turn in. Just a hand written one leaning against a post which we missed in the dark. When we drove up to the main building there was no sign pointing where to go in for reception. We stayed two nights but when we had our breakfast we had nothing to wash our plates with , no cloth, brush, tea towel etc and had to do them in the bathroom sink. They need to put in a shelf for the toaster and kettle as they just sat them on top of the microwave. We were comfortable here but there just needs to be a few small extras for a better stay.

Loved our stay at Green Gables! It’s a classic property that’s been looked after perfectly. The staff there is super polite and helped us out with everything we needed. A great experience all around!

Beautiful surrounds and easy walk to shops/the river. Helpful staff.
