Find Romantic Hotels in The Patch

"Such a lovely place to stay, not just for the hotel room itself but the food, the staff, the peace and the wildlife!"

"Great spot . Some staff very hard too understand . "

"I liked the old world charm and quality fittings (marble very wide spa bath with gold taps) however some things looked worn. Breakfast was great and it was included in our tariff. Restaurant is not open everyday however that didn't matter to us."

"We were beyond happy during our 4 days stay at the Balgownie when we were celebrating our wedding. The staff is fantastic and is the driver of all of our positive experience. The property is located ~1hr outside of Melbourne - we are from out of town and first time visiting here. Area is very quiet and a great getaway from the city. We had a group booking with ~10 rooms and the staff took care of each one of us during our stay. The staff is friendly, professional, and accommodating of our group - often recommending arrangements that would improve our experience proactively. We had the opportunity to use one of the group rooms as well for an event and it was very well catered. Food is fantastic but wish the portion is slightly smaller so we don't waste so much food! Property is in a modern condition, very clean and I thought was quite family friendly too. I particularly enjoyed the aesthetics of the hotel which combined modern design with some retro style - all worked well together. If you are looking for a weekend getaway or somewhere to visit near Melbourne, I highly recommend staying at Balgownie to make a special experience! "
