10 out of 10. Would've really liked another night or two but Abba beat us to it. The owners Col & Judy are very welcoming & chatty....just like a B&B used to be before all this online impersonal check in rubbish came in. But I digress...our ground floor Music Room apartment was wonderful, having lots & lots & lots of space. Great kitchen (albeit a tad dated) so we dined in (thanks to Woolies - just a short walk away). The included breakkie is great & too much to eat, so we had takeaway! Parking was kerbside just outside & next to the Law Courts so seemed very safe.So peaceful at night we slept like babies. The convent refurb is a credit to Col & Judy - really great. Highly recommended

Everything we experienced was terrific

We had a lovely stay in this classic old building. Large rooms and large king size bed. The apartment was huge and kitchen well equipped with everything we needed. Ample breakfast is provided. Dog friendly with yard for them to explore but not off lead.

Breakfast is provided but cook/make your own, not a complaint just to be aware of. Parking is on the street but ample right outside the convent. Kitchen and bathroom dated.

Loved the beautiful, charming and well looked after accomodation for our wedding night. The staff could not have been more accommodating and the room was excellently prepared and made a wonderful backdrop for my husband’s groomsmen photos. Thank you for having us and letting us use your venue both to stay and to capture our special day.

Nothing!

Great ‘old world’ feeling in this charming historic building. Very comfortable and breakfast provided in the fridge really hit the spot with fresh eggs, bacon, and lots of other tasty bits and pieces. EXCELLENT location close to the Main Street, and owners were helpful and very welcoming.

Nothing not to like!

It is a lovely spacious and relaxing place with magnificent gardens. Colin was a very inviting host and the fridge was stocked with an abundance of breakfast supplies. Location can't be better - it was a one block walk to the centre of town.

Unfortunately I was in late and left early so I only got to enjoy it for a short time. If you like glossy new digs then this isn't for you, but if you love historic buildings that are clean, spacious, very comfortable and serene then you won't be disappointed

The gas fire in the living room was an added bonus. The place is looking dated but that said the rooms are in excellent condition. Everything spotlessly clean. Very handy for visiting the Parkes Radio Telescope. The cook-your-own breakfast was great.

Not much to do in Parkes on a Sunday night.

Very well furnished and decorated, reminded me on my childhood home which was also historic. Owners are lovely and were very welcoming. Dog friendly. Breakfast was supplied with choices of cereal and items in the fridge to prepare a hot breakfast, great selection.

Nothing to add.

Charming place with a lot of character and antique furniture beautifully put together. The bed was super comfortable and the place was spacious and had a relaxed feel. So much better compared to staying at a Motel.

The original bathroom is a fair way from the bedroom.
