The staff were friendly and helpful, room was clean. Not sure if dispenser in bathroom was a shampoo/ conditioner combo but conditioner dispenser empty and no body lotion was the only thing I missed. Otherwise could not fault my accommodation.

We have enjoyed our stay at the Windmill Motel on many occasions finding the rooms very well presented and the adjoining restaurant very convenient for an enjoyable meal. The only disappointment is the Motel doesn't have any pet friendly rooms as we have found when travelling is becoming more available. We won't be staying at the Windmill from now on as we have a dog in our family, and she will be with us on our travels from now on. It is a shame but as I mentioned she is now part of our family and if she is not welcome, we will find somewhere we she is.

The property was clean and today, large rooms which were great. The problem is the smell in the room was very musty and strong. The other thing is the noise from the cafe next door went pretty late

I have stayed here before and as usual the rooms are immaculately clean and spacious and the staff are very friendly and helpful. I had booked a room not realizing that it was upstairs and the staff were able to organize a ground floor room for me - thank you so much. Will definitely stay here again when I'm in town.
