"If you'd like to live the faulty towers experience, then this may be the place for you. Issues from the get-go when trying to check in, wrong phone numbers/no one on site, incorrect room/s, getting the run-around, and other guests being assigned the same room."

" I was surprise that the room was not serviced we stayed for 2 Night"

"Easy parking, and close to Woolworths and the town, room had clean bed and towels, although the cutlery and water was dirty. "

"We stayed at Paddymelon Cottage in Clunes for 3 nights in March 2026, a period miner’s cottage. While it was generally comfortable, we found the interior was in need of some work. At least one wall had some very obvious cracks and in places the paintwork was deteriorating, peeling and/or marked. It was listed as renovated but this must have been several decades ago. There were some cobwebs, as well as a used towel in the bathroom linen basket. It was pleasant and peaceful sitting on the veranda at the side of the cottage in the warm early autumn sunshine looking out at the side garden. However, it was necessary to brush cobwebs, dust and leaf litter off the chair cushions before sitting at the outside table. This part of the garden was generally untidy with weeds, random pieces of timber, empty garden pots and a discarded plastic chair. However, that said, the cottage is very conveniently located, just a short walk to the main street. For this type of accommodation, the cost was reasonable. Overall, this cottage would suit those looking for convenience of location and some period charm rather than 5-star luxury."
