Find the Cheap Millicent Hotels

What a wonderful, very clean and very affordable accommodation! After my last accommodation at a Caravan Park on Yorke Peninsula which was described as ”clean” by the owners and where I spent at least one hour to clean the cups, plates, glasses, forks, knives and spoons (the pots and pans were so dirty that I refused to touch them), I gave up any hope to find a really clean accommodation after 28 years of travelling through Australia, but here now is this great exception: The Hillview Caravan Park in Millicent which really positively surprised me. And the best thing is that this accommodation is in the centre of all the beautiful travel destinations around the Limestone Coast: the beautiful Canunda National Park, the fine Tantanoola Cave, Penola with its pretty Petticoat Lane (5 beautiful cottages, built between 1850 and 1869) and the Mary Mackillop Interpretive Centre, the Coonawarra Wine Region, Mt. Gambier and the wonderful Penambol C.P. with its awesome Caroline Sinkhole and the butterfly walk and the wombat walk, Beachport and Southend, the greatest windfarm in Australia just around Millicent and if you have children or grandchildren a wonderful big playground in the town itself.

I wasn't so sure that this would get a great review on first impression. The rooms are very basic, however, there were a number of plus marks - the aircon worked well and kept the room warm. The bed was quite comfortable. The bathroom facilities all worked well. There was a good size television in the room. On the negative side, the buildings need some updating. The rooms were a little musty. The rooms view was across a paved yard at painting and garden equipment not packed away. We stayed in Millicent as it was close to a function on the night and after looking at the opposition, we made the right choice for accommodation.

Stayed here 'cos it was close to where I was getting my 4WD serviced. The room was actually made up of about 4 rooms - kitchenette, bathroom, lounge/bedroom and bedroom. Yep, it probably needs a reno, but it had everything you needed, and I liked the layout and a real lounge! Very unusual, but nice. We had the free breakfast which was quite nice. There's another place I'll try next time just for a comparison, but I'd be quite happy to stay here again.
