The Scotch fillet for $37 was gristly and tough, though at least it wasn’t overcooked. It felt like it might have been the last piece available, and I wonder where they source their meat—perhaps Aldi? (This was a major letdown). **Additional Details:** - You can't fully enjoy the deck due to the constant drone of a water or sewage pump, which ruins the ambiance. **Overall Ratings:** - Rooms: 3 - Service: 5 - Location: 5 **Hotel Highlights:** - Great views - Romantic ambiance - Quiet environment - Kid-friendly - Excellent value

Cozy and welcoming, we stopped by for a satisfying pub meal. Today, we opted for just a coffee and a pie on our way back from Sydney. read more Cozy and welcoming, we stopped by for a satisfying pub meal. Today, we opted for just a coffee and a pie on our way back from Sydney.
