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.

Murchison is a very small town so everything is within 5 minutes walk or less from the motel. There is no face to face checkin but the instruction is very clear and easy. Room is clean and well equipped with everything we need. WiFi worked well as there is no signal for our phone data so WiFi only. There are only four units and the neighbours are courteous. It’s quiet at night and we slept well in the comfy bed.

Our cabin had it's own little backgarden which was often visited by a beautiful, very friendly cat
Plenty of songbirds in the garden
A much needed AC that helped us survive that Murchison summer heat
Kitchen has plenty to work with to cook
Cabin actually seems bigger than it looks from the outside!

The Grand Suites was a fantastic stay for us. The apartment was in premium condition, and impeccably clean. Bed was super soft and heating excellent. Best accommodation in Murchison. Very friendly staff who gave us recommendations for the area. Would highly recommend.

A hidden jewel in Murchison. This lodge provides peace and serenity with the advantage of warm and welcoming hosts with superb attention to detail. An excellent selection of breakfast choices all prepared and delivered by our host. This lodge is highly recommended.
No breakfast was offered or expected. Murchison has several places where a meal can be had. The expanded grounds of the Motor camp type park, contained several newish motel units...unoccupied while I was there, but not unexpectedly because of the winter weather.
