Ghost Mountain Inn

Ghost Mountain Inn

10/10 Excellent
"We are from Australia and travelling around the world by bicycle. We had a lovely warm welcome and made to feel nothing was too much trouble . Very pleased to be able to safely store our two bicycles. We enjoyed all the facilities so much that we stayed an extra night. Very relaxing ambience and we enjoyed our day off the bikes . The kitchen was able to deal with my intolerances and produce delicious meals. Breakfast was delicious too. A big thank you to the wait staff for looking after us so well. Highly recommend!"
