Although the weather was extremely stormy with gale force winds on the particular weekend we stayed at Marwood, we had a beautiful fire to keep us warm, plenty of firewood and everything was lovely and clean. The spa bath was huge and set in an elegant decor and the whole place had a peaceful ambience. We endured an incredible storm on the saturday night and felt very safe in the villa which is solid and made of sandstone. Very cosy!! We also met Cameron who looked out for us and is a very friendly and kind person. Marwood is very peaceful and has lovely landscaped grounds. We did manage to get a climb in up the mountain before the storm hit. We chose Marwood to stay somewhere quiet and peaceful with lots of outdoor scenic walks and we were very happy with our short holiday..

Nothing, it was a great experience.

Everything we needed was in the villa, even provided complimentary bread for breakfast and sparkling wine. Place was quite clean and well-stocked. Great vibe!

Maybe the pillows were a bit too hard? But that wasn’t a major issue as I had brought my own pillows with me. Also the surround sound/dvd player did not work very well so we had to rely on what was on the tv, which did not provide most channels (not a dealbreaker though).

Nothing that we didn't like, it was brilliant.

The villas are very tuscan, they are gorgeous. We stayed in villa 1. Very spacious, the amenity inside is exceptional. Local wildlife right outside the large windows, a great fireplace well stocked with firewood. The cereal and fresh bread on arrival was a bonus. Staff were very friendly and knowledgeable about the local surroundings.

With your own secluded villa located in a botanical garden, this location has to be rated 'magical'. It is very private, We were greeted on arrival with the scents of multiple boronias. Walking in the large grounds surrounded by native forest, we discovered numerous plantings of azaleas, rhododendrons, camelias and exotic natives; they were simply amazing. But the villa was equally special. Comprehensively equipped, the villa was tastefully furnished. The log fire and spa bath added a great touch to a very special place. It was our first visit to Halls Gap - if we ever return it would definitely include a stay at the Marwood Villas.

Nothing.

Very comfortable villa, tasteful decor. Bed was huge & oh so comfortable. Toiletries supplied for the spa , very relaxing. Kitchen facilities are great, stay in & cook your own meals or eat out at a variety of eateries in town. The surrounding grounds are well kept by Cam with wildlife in abundance at your doorstep.

No complaints other than I couldn’t stay longer.

This was our 2nd time staying at Marwood and it was beautiful!! The owners were very welcoming and got to see the peacocks. Lovely gardens and the bed was comfortable, spa amazing and the fireplace just superb. We will again be back for our 4 yr anniversary next year. 1 night isn’t long enough so I think next stay will be 2 nights of pure comfort and lovely landscape to look at in a private setting.

Nothing it was perfect

Beautiful place to stay, pure luxury, the spa is amazing, and the bed is comfortable. Split system aircon as well as fireplace in loungeroom, with everything supplied to start and keep it burning. Perfect for winter stays. The villas are located close to the main street for shops, cafes, restaurants, a very convenient 3 minute drive, and surrounded by beautiful scenery. It was a nice surprise to have a continental breakfast with a fresh loaf of local bread waiting for us upon arrival. I'm very eager to book and return. The large guest folder has great information on things to do, where to find different local restraunts, cafes, and places of interest. Highly recommended, won't be disappointed.

I can't think of anything I didn't like

The location was amazing...super close to restaurants and activities, and loved looking out of the property into bushland. The bed was comfortable and the heating options (fireplace and reverse cycle unit) made it easy to not feel the cold during Winter. We loved that breakfast was included, as well as DVD options. The hosts were responsive to questions before and during our visit. We would definitely stay at the same property if visiting Halls Gap again.

Some things weren't working (e.g., light in cupboard, spa jets, one dvd we tried to play). Fruit juice for breakfast would have been nice, rather than just hot drink options. A later check out time would have made the morning more relaxed. Nothing that ruined our stay though, just suggestions to make next time even better.

Fantastic and well appointed private villas with a beautiful aspect and relaxing but luxurious feel. The spa bath was the best that we have come across. Well looked after and exceptionally well maintained and cleaned so you don't need to worry about the last few clients hair and icky bits being left in the jets! Also, the owners have clearly identified and instigated an outstanding way to fend off bugs and other things that usually occur in regional areas because we didn't see so much as a fly let alone anything creepier on the premises!!

Having to leave!!

An amazing self contained villa, 1 of 6 on the picturesque property, very relaxed surroundings, kanagaroos are often chilling on the grass, made for couples, they have a 'no children' rule which is great. A stocked wood bin for the fireplace, a complimentary bottle of local sparkling wine in the fridge, a spa bath, everything you need for an amazing couple of days away from the hustle and bustle of the city.
