Very comfortable, refurbished cottages.
Fantastic old building, beautifully refurbished. Well presented kitchen with cooking essentials. Bathroom is quite small and got quite damp during shower. Very comfortable beds.
The well located property was spacious and comfortable and it’s history made for a unique stay.

The accommodation was very clean and comfortable. My only reservation was the very slippery slate floor in the shower and in case of a slip there was no nothing to get a hold of. A minor point but if someone was to slip it could be painful.

A lovely place to stay! The history of Burra is fascinating and the cottages (with its own history) are a comfortable, cosy and central place to base your stay. Thoroughly recommend staying here!
I have stayed a number of times and always had a good experience. It's clean, safe and consistent. The front office is open late so that's great for late arrivals.

Stayed there before (9 years ago or so) - improved with the installation of air conditioning. Just had an overnight stay on way to Broken Hill and it was ideal for that purpose.

This is an amazing place to stay and can't wait to do so again. The miner's cottages have been beautifully updated, everything provided and very comfy beds to sleep in. The outdoor seating area is fabulous, thank you for providing that, so nice to be able to sit outside on a summer's night. Location is ideal, an easy and quick walk to the local pub, walk to the shops, the location is spot on

We enjoyed everything about Burra.
The town is beautiful with lovely trees and gardens, and the Paxton Square Gardens was very comfortable.
There is lots of history and we went for a drive to see the old mines.
