    We were in a hurry, so stayed here only for 1 night, but everything was perfect. The hotel has marvellous location right by town centre, for carrying down luggage and the main areas of the house. It was immaculate, good-sized and with all necessary comforts.

    Located very close to the freeway, Faraway Lodge offers a peaceful and quiet environment, away from the noise of traffic. It's a great place to rest and refresh the mind. the facilities at the lodge are excellent, providing a comfortable stay.

    Some maintenance is required in terms of finishings in the rooms and throughout the house itself.

    I was pleasantly surprised by my recent stay at Faraway Lodge. The room was clean and comfortable, with fresh linen and no unpleasant odors. The breakfast provided a good start to the day, offering options like eggs and bacon. The staff, particularly the front desk person, were friendly and helpful, answering all my questions and even providing their cell number for easy communication. Despite a few minor inconveniences, such as the early breakfast time and limited amenities, my overall experience was positive. I would recommend Faraway Lodge for its convenient location and welcoming staff.

    The staff at this place were absolutely fantastic! They went above and beyond to help us with our luggage and made sure we felt welcome throughout our stay. The house itself is simply stunning, with so much potential for a jaw-dropping experience. Not only were the rooms clean and safe, but they were also a great size for us. The breakfast provided was limited but of incredible quality, and the fact that we had access to the kitchen facilities, including a microwave for warming up our food, was a super bonus. The location of the property in a beautiful quiet neighborhood was also a major plus. we had a mind-blowingly positive experience here, and it's definitely the perfect option for anyone looking for a safe, clean, and super comfortable stay.

    The rooms at Faraway Lodge B&B are simply amazing! They are so cozy and comfortable, with all the modern amenities like air conditioning and free WiFi. It felt like a home away from home.

    Personally, I found the tile/marble floor in the apartment a bit too cold for my liking. But I understand that some people might actually enjoy it.
