布雷克斯庄园自助式古迹住宿酒店

The property presents as historic and elegant. The gardens, maintained by host Peter, are immaculate. Several espaliered apple trees still have fruit on them, in winter. We were greeted by Peter and Georgia, who had asked about our arrival time so they might bake fresh bread (which indeed they did). Both were warm, informal and happy to chat for a few minutes. As promised they gave us some information about local attractions and eateries. The property offers several beautifully furnished suites. Ours was a bit different because it had been occupied by resident nuns in the past: plainly furnished, utilitarian, focused more on function than aesthetic appeal. This was something of a drawback but we selected it because it had an oven and stove. It was immaculately clean throughout. There were two two-seater couches, one in the kitchen and the other in the tv nook. Sadly, both were worn out and very uncomfortable. The kitchen was well-equipped, with a good-sized fridge, microwave, toaster, kettle, crockery, cutlery and cooking utensils. Table and 4 chairs. Also supplied by our thoughtful hosts were cooking oil, salt and pepper, Gladwrap and foil. The welcome package consisted of bacon and eggs, butter, jam, biscuits and cheese, milk and juice. They even left a gift of walnuts from their own tree! The bed was a double, which was okay, but the timber foot made it uncomfortable for me at six foot two. Despite these minor faults it was a pleasure to stay here, and I recommend it.

The Blake Manor is a surprise to us. Deloraine is just a stop for us from Cradle Mountain to Mount Field, but I was surprised by the beauty and peace of this town and the hotel Blake Manor. Btw, the bread fresh from oven was the best bread I ever had!

We're surprised to have hot and fresh homemade bread, very tasty. The apartment with everything you needed, good decoration, comfort beds with nice view.
