Thanks James for a wonder stay! We loved the unique experience of staying in a historic building and learning about its past. The room and the common areas were very clean and the kitchen was well stocked with utensils and cutlery, great for cooking a quick meal or just making a cuppa. The family had a lot of fun playing games in the meals area :) And thank you so much for the dress up photo shoot before we were 'set free' :) It was a great experience and I highly recommend it to anyone (including families) wanting a different experience, not to mention the very reasonable price!

Larger country town with great facilities and many sightseeing options. Close to one Australia's great wine regions. Many accommodation choices available to suit all budgets. And of course it has the Blue Lake.

Such a pretty town with so many lovely houses and building. Lovely history to the place. Great vibe in the town centre with cafes and pubs and community. Lots to see and do with all the sinkholes, lakes and proximity to Coonawarra and Port MacDonell beaches

For a big town it lacked a choice of restaurants, we arrived quite late as travelling and nothing was open in town. Actually felt like a ghost town.
Good place to stop if travelling ocean road but only need one night there!
The Barns where we stayed had a good restaurant that was still open but is 20 min drive from town centre.

Beautiful historic town with famous landmarks, such as the volcanic crater lake (Blue Lake) and the Umpherston Sinkhole and sunken gardens. Very walkable town with lots of boutique shops, restaurants and coffee houses.

Much to see and do within a 100km radius of the city.
Much to see and do within a 100km radius of the city. It is a pity the the Princess Margaret Rose Cave is currently shut and there is no indication about a reopening date. The expected date (End of 2023) is now history. Direction signs should carry this information. Naracoorte Caves excellent. Get directions to "Hells Hole" and go for a short walk, Be amazed! Visitor centre is very helpful. If you are reasonably fit climb Mt Schank and walk the rim of an dormant volcano.

Despite the amazing natural attractions (especially the Blue Lake which is resplendent at this time of year), Mount Gambier seems to be revelling in past glories and much of the tourist infrastructure appears dated and run-down. Even the 'attractions' sign as you drive into town is peeling and faded...
We really enjoyed our stay in the Farmhouse. We had 4 separate bedrooms and full kitchen, laundry, lounge and dining rooms. The accommodation was spotlessly clean and heating was on for our arrival as it was very cold on the evening we arrived. Our boys enjoyed playing soccer in the back yard. We all enjoyed Christmas Dinner in the hotel restaurant the food quality was great and service attentive. Thank you to the Barn team for looking after our family on Christmas night. We would have liked to stay longer.
Hotel is nicely refurbished. The room was exceptional value....large and the bed v comfortable.
However the location is v central and it is noisy despite double glazing. Ear plugs did the job. It's also a casino, which is not everybody's thing.
We ate in the restaurant where servicecwas good but the food slightly underwhelmed.
May be expectations were too high.
Parking is free and reasonably ample. We enjoyed our stay and the room was exceptional
I don’t recommend this motel for anyone. Very curt bordering on rude reception. They put our room at the end of the property along with 3 other rooms that were in party mode till late even though many other rooms seemed available away from that situation. Room was old, not too clean and there was a can of Raid insect repellent in the room! I recommend avoiding this place.
It was not what we were expected at all bathroom was dirty , toilet was disgusting .
Bed was not comfortable.
We should have been told that the hotel is under renovation but even hotel under renovation it shouldn’t affect the cleanliness
Paid so much for that not worth it
The Lakes Resort is a well maintained older motel that I have returned to each time I have been in Mount Gambier.
Rooms are clean and well presented and the location is quiet at night.
We will be happy to return to "The Lakes" when we next visit Mount Gambier.
A good value for money accomodation that worked well for our overnight stay for our drive from adelaide to Melbourne. A no frills motel with all the basic amenities and a good economical option based on price paid.
Value for money, I initially booked at The Henty (the new owners) but at a 40% discount the Red Carpet Motel was hard to resist as we didn't spend any time at the facility except to sleep and take a shower.
So much better than a pokey motel room for a multi night stay in Mt Gambier, and very reasonable pricing also. Lovely apartment, clean, well appointed and located close to walk trails and CBD.
The room was very spacious and comfortable. Quiet location and perfect location as I was attending a function at The Barn. Bathroom was superb and the room and facilities couldnt be faulted.
The beds were extremely comfortable much better than any caravan park cabins. and the lady helped fix the netflix. Pet friendly. Good wifi. It was extremely quiet we enjoyed it.
It was a budget hotell and provided exactly what I would expect from one. The bed was good and the facilities were very clean. Kitchen crockery and cutlery was sufficient.
Spacious room in executive suite. Bed is better than some other hotels I have been. Toilet has locks which is must for a family with kids. Our kids loved the balcony.
