Gréât location and beautiful lush gardens make Somerset a great base for your LHI stay. Rooms are basic and bathroom small, but you don’t come to LHI to stay in your room! Large balcony attached to our room was great feature. Staff all friendly & helpful. Overall great value for money on LHI & would stay again.

Somerset Apartments are brilliantly located midway between Ned's Beach and the Lagoon/CBD area. Beautiful gardens, lots of BBQ areas and bike racks on site, as well as a laundry building. The apartments are pretty basic but have everything you need. They are scrupulously clean and well maintained, but could do with a bit of a refresh. The Wi-Fi situation is initially a bit irksome, but that is an island wide issue and part of the charm of Lord Howe - an enforced digital detox. You can get coverage at the Transit Lounge at Somerset, so not too bad. Gai and her team are extremely accommodating and run nightly shuttle buses to take guests to the various restaurants located a little way away from the apartments. They also pick up and drop off at the airport. Lord Howe exceeded our expectations. The people living there are extremely kind and within a few days of arriving, we noticed ourselves beginning to adapt to island life and saying good morning to everyone we passed and waving at strangers on bikes and in cars, as is the island custom. The mantra "kindness begets kindness" is highly evident there and we found ourselves inviting strangers to have dinner with us or share a drink and had some of the best evenings we can remember. Snorkelling and hiking are sublime and we were lucky enough to see a couple of sharks as well as some of the most laid back turtles and fish on the planet. Amazing place. Definitely go.

Position, position, position
The location is the best thing about this property - half way between the lagoon & Ned's Beach - and close to the main shops. Nice & level here too as there are plenty of hills on the island. The rooms are all very private and hidden in lush tropical gardens. The room was very comfortable and came with lots of thoughtful extras like backpacks, water bottles & golf umbrellas. Lots of BBQs scattered around the property, plus quite a few laundry's. Also a main transit lounge with plenty of books to swap and lots of tourist info. Office kindly lent us a fan, torches and clothes airer. Plus a courtesy bus runs every night and will drop you at whichever restaurant you want to eat at (the restaurants then drop you home). Will definitely stay here again.

Great situation, close to everything. Walk to Ned's Beach, Post Office and Thompson's store. Very clean apartment, well equipped kitchen. Helpful, friendly staff. Even when I left my precious Kentia palm back in my room after I had been dropped off at the airport, no trouble to go back and collect it for me. I was most grateful for that. I would stay there again when I go back for another relaxing and full of adventure week.

Being picked up at the airport and assisted when our baggage didn't arrive was very nice .We loved the location of the property ,being central to both Neds beach & the lagoon beach. The staff were friendly and helpful. Accommodation is comfortable & clean with a relatively new bathroom.The unit / apartment is much better than what the Website pictures show. With checkout being a standard 10.00 a.m it was nice to have an available shower in the transit lounge,which we used after snorkelling between checkout time and being driven back to the airport. Thanks for a wonderful holiday.

Located walking distances to beaches, store,hall for Wednesday night historical movie night and Sunday market day, cafe, post and close to wharf, dive centre and start of hikes.

Ideal location - unique setting - great experience
We have long thought about going to Lord Howe Island, and much earlier this year our forward-looking research suggested the Somerset Apartments as the right place at the right price - and it proved an excellent choice, meeting and exceeding all our expectations. From when we were picked up at the airport to when we were taken back there at the end of our stay, the facilities and support services plus excellent information about the island and its features and opportunities, underpinned all aspects of a great holiday. The well-designed and very well equipped and comfortably furnished apartments are spaces out in small groups within surrounding lush gardens of sub-tropical palms and flowering shrubs where the loudest sounds are the songs of many and varied birds. Relaxed. Uncommercialised. Peaceful. Perfect.

Great position between ‘down town’ and Ned’s beach. Not serviced, but the room was very clean when we got there, and towels changed when needed. Staff very friendly, like everyone else on the island. Good laundry facilities, just don’t forget your $1 coins. Apartment had lots of room and comfortable beds, though bathroom is a little small. Basic facilities in room for cooking and lots of bbq areas outside. Would definitely recommend and consider staying here again.

Great location and well run premises.
We were greeted at the airport and given a tour of the island on our way to our accommodation by our friendly driver. Our accommodation was spotless and comfortable with plenty of towels and other comforts should we need them,. The position of Somerset Apts is one of the best on the island within close walking distance to the main "hub" and also Ned's beach. We didn't hire bikes and found walking to other beaches and sights easy. Each evening we were transported to our chosen venue for dinner and driven back by our dinner hosts. We had a lovely relaxing time and found our Somerset to be all we had hopped for.

Mid-winter stay
We booked via Wotif with this last available accommodation. It turned out to be wonderful and we had a very happy couple of weeks staying in Frangipani 7 here. Staff are generally very friendly and helpful and small suggestions about path lights being out in some spots were dealt with next day. Cleanliness is terrific, the unit was private and larger than we thought plus, although the ensuite bathroom was not wide, it was a good length and sufficient. Somerset is very close to Thompson's store, Anchorage restaurant, bike hire and also to Ned's Beach. Love that accommodation and restaurants on the island look after getting visitors too and from evening dining - it makes it very easy and somewhat entertaining too. Mid-winter some activities and restaurants are closed, but it didn't stop us from having a top stay on the island. Electric blankets on the queen and single beds kept us warm at night. The unit had a good size balcony overlooking a tropical palm garden. No mobile phone reception is available, but there is wifi access and pay as you go internet available. Friendly Somerset staff picked us up and dropped us back to the airport. We would happily stay here again! Thanks for a fabulous holiday.
