I realise it is not the property's fault, but when I booked this room, I was told it was 5.6kms from Bateman's Bay where I wanted to stay the night. Turns out, it was 5.6kms by water, but an hour and 10 minutes' drive from Bateman's Bay. Rooms are well appointed but limited food options around hotel

Pleasant motel next to Country Club
A large and comfortable room, quite expensive for a country motel but not much choice in Tea Gardens/Hawks Nest and it does have a very nice spa bath. Easy drive to the river or beach. May be better to look further afield for dinner rather than walk to the Country Club next door.

Only stayed one night but there was a serious damp issue at this motel. You could smell it as soon as you entered the hallway . There was obvious water damage on the walls of the room and the smell in the room was very strong. It was reasonably priced but I would not stay again

The room was spacious for a family of 4 and clean when we arrived. the beds were nicely made. The blockout curtains were sooo good as it enabled you to unwind and relax without interference of morning sun. Definitely recommend this place as it is near to most beaches and restaurants.
