    Great location, close to amenities and attractions. Enjoyed the complimentary breakfast with a variety of cereals and fresh bread. The staff was friendly and provided helpful recommendations for nearby activities.

    Poor quality motel with dirty kitchen and disgusting fridge. Cats were running around both inside and outside the property.

    We had a fantastic time at The Lazy Cow in Murchison! We stayed for three nights while kayaking and found the double room with en-suite to be spacious and well-equipped. The kitchen facilities were great for cooking, and the continental breakfast was convenient. The bathrooms were clean and had a luxurious spa function in the bathtub. The location was perfect, right in the town centre with easy access to the petrol station, pub, and supermarket. a great value and a homely B n B experience.

    Would be happy to recommend this hotel.

    The accommodation was clean, tidy, and conveniently located. Perfect for a Christmas getaway! The staff were excellent - friendly and accommodating. The best part was the access to an open fire, which was so cozy and perfect for the festive season.

    There were a few downsides to our stay. there were no locks on the bedroom doors and the front door was left unlocked after we checked in, which made us worry about the safety of our belongings.

    Our room at Lazy Cow Accommodation was fantastic, with an en-suite bathroom and a lovely balcony equipped with a BBQ. We enjoyed the seating in the garden, complete with tables, chairs, and sun umbrellas. The room itself was clean, comfortable, and had a nice ambience. There was even a pizza restaurant next door and a convenience store across the street for any basic needs.

    We did experience a hiccup during our stay, as we discovered bed bugs in our room. We notified the manager, who promised to take care of it.

    the lazy cow was a delightful surprise during our overnight stay in murchison. the cozy hostel felt like home and we loved the open layout of the kitchen/dining area. the attached restaurant served delicious food and the friendly staff provided great recommendations. we wish we could have stayed longer!

    We had a fantastic stay at the Lazy Cow! the accommodation had a large bathroom and a full kitchen with all the necessary amenities, perfect for families. the large common area with a fireplace and various activities made our stay enjoyable. the Clover room opened onto a spacious deck, providing a lovely outdoor space. the host was extremely friendly and accommodating. the accommodation also provided tea, coffee, cookies, bread, and jam. a great place with a homely atmosphere and lots of cow decor!

    Felt very comfortable, no complaints.

    The Lazy Cow is the perfect spot for backpackers with its central location and cozy atmosphere. We loved the friendly staff, complimentary tea, coffee, and snacks provided in our accommodation. the shared bathrooms were spotlessly clean, and having access to an open fire was a real treat. And to top it off, there's an excellent pizza place right on the premises!

    Felt incredibly well taken care of, zero complaints.

    We had a great time at Lazy Cow Accommodation. Our double room with en, suite was spacious and had everything we needed. the kitchen facilities were fantastic, allowing us to cook our own meals in the evenings. Breakfast was convenient and simple, with self, serve bread and cereal. the staff were excellent, friendly, and accommodating, making our stay even more enjoyable. the highlight was the delicious pizza at the on, site restaurant, which had a great atmosphere. a clean, tidy, and conveniently located place for a stopover while traveling. Cons: Nothing, all great! 👍.

    I recently stayed at The Lazy Cow accommodation for one day and had a wonderful experience. The hostel itself was cozy and felt like a home away from home. The kitchen and dining area had a great layout with a breakfast bar and open-plan design. The balcony and outdoor seating were lovely. The owner/manager was welcoming and helpful, providing practical suggestions when I had a problem. The room I stayed in, the Clover room, was fantastic for a low price. It was spacious, had comfortable beds, and even had its own bathroom and deck. The yard was also a nice touch where I enjoyed dinner. I was truly impressed with everything at Lazy Cow.

    Couldn't recommend this hotel more.
