A great property for a big group

My family of adult children plus my elderly parents stayed at the Gatehouse over the Easter long weekend and had a great time. Having 6 large bedrooms was perfect for a big group and Christine was excellent to deal with.

The property would benefit from some maintenance and updating. It’s a wonderful old building in a great location. The grounds and cobwebs inside need attention.

Family and friends getaway

We needed some time to enjoy with family and friends following the hectic schedules leading into the Christmas holidays and found the perfect place at The Gatehouse, Beechworth. The booking process was easy and the lodging was very cozy, clean and comfortable. The surroundings and the town captivated us where there was a sense of adventure and mystique.

Xmas Family Gathering

Great location for our family xmas with plenty of beds & bathrooms for our group of 8 adults and 6 kids. Could use some modernising and an extra living space would have been great when the weather turned wet and everyone was stuck inside. Good value overall.

Excellent group accommodation Close to the centre of Beechworth

Excellent group accommodation for our party of 8 adults with great and secure bike storage. A quiet location but still close to all that Beechworth has to offer. Perfectly suited to our weekend of cycling with pubs close by and a comfortable lounge room for the post-ride banter. Clean and comfortable. Thank you!

We had an amazing long weekend in the beautiful historic Gate House. A wonderful accommodation for large groups with plenty of amenities.
