Idyllic stay

Tonic Hotel was absolutely fabulous. From the initial contact with Ian, the beautiful location and stunning room (which included everything we needed), to the flexibility Ian provided with check out - our whole experience was perfect. We will definitely be staying here again.

stunning

10.0

Absolutely beautiful, pet-friendly stay! The rooms were stunning, and the views were absolutely amazing. We'll definitely be back. Our doggos had the time of their lives, which made the trip even more special. Everything exceeded our expectations, and we couldn't have asked for a better few days away. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway with or without their furry friends!

8.0

No breakfast provided however all the facilities for you to bring your own provided in the kitchen. The room and the view off the verandah were very good. They also provide another area for all guests to use with all the facilities you need including an open log fire which was amazing. Also it is dog friendly.

− The bed wasn't real comfortable.
