From some of the September 2013 guests.......

The following is an excerpt from a testimonial/thank-you letter that arrived following Lianne & Trevor's stay. 
"From the moment we pulled up in the driveway and saw the quaint Victorian cottage and garden, we knew we were on holidays. If only for the weekend. We were greeted by Kellie-Anne and shown to our delightful French-style bedroom with homely detail and private ensuite with fluffy bath-sized towels. Our bags were down, we were taken to the lounge room where we could relax on the leather sofa before dinner. We enjoyed a selection of local olives, tempting savouries and a glass of wine with our host Kellie-Anne".

What a great B&B! The house, the hospitality, the breakfast. So glad we decided to stay here and we'll recommend to others. Darren & Janette, Kaleen ACT

A lovely and relaxing way to break our trip home and escape the madness of the election (totally banned in the cottage). Thank you for sharing your oasis of calm.

A special home and lovely host. Thank you Kellie for the lovely breakfasts. We both feel rather spoilt. Alwyn & Frans, Warrnambool VIC

An interesting and informative evening talking to Kellie and going out for dinner, after growing up in this house so many years ago. Kellie is a very pleasant person.

Congratulations Kellie on creating a warm welcoming home, keeping in line with the warmth we felt as a child visiting our grand-parents. 
Joy, Deagon QLD 
NB: Joy is Nettie's daughter and enjoyed many visits to her grand-parents during her childhood. It was so wonderful to have them come stay at La Maison and tell all their family stories and share the wonderful memories with photos.  

We had a delightful, comfortable - and delicious stay. Thanks for accommodating us and little Frankie (chihuahua) and sharing your home. Local wisdom and home style cooking will ensure a return visit from us. Brad, Paul and Frankie (chihuahua) Ballarat VIC.

Just the relaxing and fun break that we needed. Gold stars all round.

Wow, what a find! From the warm welcome we then enjoyed your attention to detail both in comfort and decor. An extremely comfortable nights sleep...and then that exquisite breakfast! Reminds us of the divine 'gites' in France. All the best...
Vivienne & Ron, Melbourne VIC

The venue was charming and comfortable and the hospitality amazing. Nothing was too much for host Kellie-Anne who went out of her way to ensure we enjoyed our stay. The breakfast was one to remember and the bike ride added an excellent finishing touch to an overall enjoyable stay.                                                                        
Christine, Echuca VIC

My parents thoroughly enjoyed their stay at La Maison St Arnaud in Rutherglen, and feel that it is simply outstanding for a one or two night stay. A charming and historic original Rutherglen home, beautifully furnished with a strong French flavour. The hostess, Kellie (who lives on the property) was very "chatty" & kicked off with a glass of Prosecco and some smoked almonds. Breakfast the next morning was super healthy & full of local produce. The B & B in Hunter St is about 800m from the centre of town. Kellie tries super-hard to impress, she has convinced my parents, and they will recommend it to all their friends.                                                                                 
Jewel and Tony, Melbourne VIC

Nice comfortable, homely room. Beautiful views, refreshing drinks and wonderful breakfast of fresh fruits and lovely fresh breads. Definitely will stay again.

Such a beautiful weekend away - topped off by an amazing B&B with a devine breakfast each morning. And of course, the cheeky Chiche (resident chihuahua). Lovely area with fantastic wine!
Ceilidh & Ian, Deniliquin, NSW

All good - thanks Kellie-Anne for a lovely, peaceful stay. We love the view, the excellent home-made basil pesto and the very friendly Chiche (resident chihuahua).
