Maurice
Tranquil bay view, friendly staff, comfortable family suite with garden access and pool. Great for summer stays. Exceeded our expectations with welcoming owners, knowledgeable staff, and a charming snug bar. Perfect location for shark cage diving, only a 6-minute drive away. Large clean room, lovely garden terrace, and delicious breakfast. Excellent host, informative about shark diving and lodge decor was quaint.

Spacious and well-appointed rooms with a great view of the sea. Delicious and fresh breakfast served in a cool dining area.- Conveniently located within walking distance of great eating spots
The downstairs lounge area where coffee/tea was served needs a small sink and water, and a cloth for spills

Excellent suggestions for eating out, viewing whales, and driving routes to see penguins. Warm welcome from Dave and Caron, very knowledgeable and helpful hosts. Lovely outdoor patios and a comfortably furnished lounge. Great opportunities pointed out by Dave for sightseeing and activities. Enjoyed having our own bar/pub in-house at the Saxon Arms. Fantastic location for shark cage diving, only a short drive away. Large and clean rooms with a lovely garden and terrace. Delicious breakfast with friendly staff. Owners were super friendly and provided great recommendations for things to do. Enjoyed dinner at Rosemary's and a lunch at Stanford Wine Estate.
Felt so at home, no complaints.

The value for money at Saxon Lodge was exceptional, and the room was clean and well-equipped. The location was convenient, with helpful staff who treated me like family.
The breakfast option could have been improved with a larger variety of choices.

Saxon Lodge is truly a gem. The deck is perfect for sipping cocktails while enjoying the sunset. The location is just stunning, with so many picturesque spots to explore. The breakfast at Caron's Kitchen is a treat, and the friendly staff made me feel right at home.
Oh, I just loooved climbing steep steps to get water for my tea in the bathroom. And those thick duvets in summer?

I had an absolutely amazing weekend at this wonderful coastal retreat! The owners, Dave and Caron, made me feel right at home and went above and beyond to ensure I had a fantastic stay. They even helped me book a shark diving trip and recommended a fantastic restaurant. The rooms were beautifully decorated and the veranda offered stunning sea views. The little garden and pool area created a serene atmosphere, perfect for relaxation. I loved every moment of my stay and would definitely return if I have the chance. I highly recommend this hidden gem by the sea!

The owners, hotel manager, and staff were all wonderful. They were knowledgeable about the area and provided great recommendations. The property had a cozy and inviting bar, and there was a friendly and playful dog named Ted. The hosts were accommodating and even allowed us to shower and have breakfast after our shark cage dive.
Felt completely happy, no complaints whatsoever.
