Beechtree Motel

Beechtree Motel

10/10 Excellent
"The Beechtree was absolutely perfect for what we needed. Check in was a breeze and Bob was wonderful to deal with! Traveling as a family of 4 it was spacious enough that we were comfortable. The rooms were a good size and ours had a stove top, microwave, mini fridge and sink area with a good range of equipment if you were wanting to cook (which we didnt get to utilize). Across the road was a Four Square mini supermarket, butcher, café and Chinese takeaway so brilliant to have all that just a few steps away! I would definitely recommend the Beechtree and would stay again in a heartbeat!"
