The Ebony Lodge is absolutely gorgeous inside and out 👌. The staff were all so friendly and welcoming. The food and service from the Ivory Eatery was perfect 👌. My partner and I will definitely be coming back to the Ebony Lodge soon 🙂.

This was a stopover on a long drive for us. The town itself is not a destination place, but Ebony Lodge is a colonial feel escape from the madness outside... big comfy bed and large wellnpresented rooms. Didn't have enough towels or pillows for 2 when we arrived but this was rectified quickly. Felt safe and secure.
