Fantastic location, great opportunity to rest, relax and enjoy time with family away from normal hustle and bustle of life. Loved the slower pace and wood burning fire in the evening. Great winter hide-away haven!

What a brilliant place to stay, can't fault it and can't praise it highly enough. The building was beautiful, the room and bed really comfortable and cooking facilities excellent. Phillip and Daphne were really welcoming and helpful and the breakfast early in the morning was superb. I'd highly recommend Murchison Lodge to anyone looking to stay in the area.

Absolutely loved the place.
Absolutely loved the place. The lodge had a great walkway down to the river. Everything was just fabulous from chocolate brownies in the room to friendly people. We played in the Open Murchison golf tournament, which is always well organised and the food yummy. Swimming in the river was a highlight on both days. Great swingbridge, 10km out of town. Fantastic.

Usually we pass through Murchison, but this time we made it a stopover for a night. We loved this place. It is in a very picturesque valley, in a lovely warm microclimate, with kayaking and hiking on the doorstep. The nearby swingbridge and cometline were a must. Great pizza from the Cow Shed! We could easily spend more time exploring the surrounds, with a base of the fabulous Murchison Lodge.

Murchison is a small town.
Murchison is a small town. We had dinner at the local pub which was not cheap but the serving sizes are extra large so good value.
People are welcoming and the place had a safe feel to it.
Place relies on the tourist trade so very quiet when we were there.
We walked from our accommodation to "town", all flat. Very little traffic.

The lodge was in a rural setting away from passing traffic. Our room with balcony overlooked a small paddock with grazing sheep and was very spacious and comfortable. Our host Phillip made us a delicious breakfast including Jams from home grown berries and great home made bread. Phillip was great to chat to and has had an interesting life, and has become a valued volunteer in Murchison. We enjoyed a lamb roast from the only local pub which was well cooked and accompanied by five different vegetables which you crave when travelling.

I would like to apologise for 'testing' the smoke alarms system which called for full evacuation of the hotel. I liked having safe undercover storage for my motorcycle

Very close to town centre. The room was very clean and had everything you needed. Lovely comfortable bed. Will definitely come back when we visit murchison again.
