We had a lovely stay at Harmony in Tower Hill. The unit had everything we needed, and the outdoor BBQ and games room were a bonus! We chose Harmony so we could cook some meals, have a bit of space around us, and to avoid the busyness of the city centre of Warrnambool. The location was great as it encouraged us to visit and explore the nearby towns of Warrnambool, Port Fairy and Koroit. We were walking distance to the Tower Hill Reserve, which has a number of excellent nature trails. The kitchen was well equipped, the bed was very comfortable, and the shower was most enjoyable. The split system provided effective heating and cooling when it was needed. We will certainly be back!

Excellent location and very comfort room
Very nice hotel and closed to tower hill wildlife reserve. You can see Emu, Kangaroo in the morning and very convenient to drive to the wildlife reserve. Very nice hospitality as well. My wife and I really enjoy the property, however, dining in this area is limited and good for self cooking only.

Thank you Wichaya for your review, our location is close to Tower Hill which gives us that beautiful country feel, unfortunately you are right we are not walking distance to any restaurants or pubs, but a short drive of 15 minutes gives you the choice of Warrnambool & Port Fairy, and a shorter drive into Koroit for even more options. We're glad you enjoyed your stay, hopefully you can visit again and stay a little longer!

Fantastic property with lots of green areas. Rooms are large, and very spacious. Clean and tidy, with enough utensils you could cook anything there. Huge bathroom with a large shower (that a 6ft person can stand under without crouching) with instant hotwater. Brilliant place to stay, very friendly staff.

Lovely tranquil setting to relax and close to Tower Hill Koroit, Port Fairy and Warrnambool, and also loved that they are old school classrooms that have been converted to accomodation, we would stay again. The hosts were great too. Its modest accomodation, spacious, clean and has everything you need, good value for money.

Nice spacious unit. Nice view and location. Don't stay if cold out. Windows and doors leak and unit is elevated allowing wind to keep floors cold. No heater in bedroom. We shivered all night. Otherwise we liked the place.

Thanks Lynn for staying with us at Harmony, we're glad you enjoyed it aside from feeling cold! You may not have realised that we have a split system heating/cooling unit which warms the living area and bedroom when left on, and the units remain quite snug during our colder months! Many of our past guests have commented to us how quickly the space heats up, particularly with the blinds shut.

The No. 4 lodge has a great bed, nice shower pressure and a comfortable lounge area. The kitchen has all the essentials. The surrounding grounds are quiet and rustic. Rabbits abound everywhere which exhausted our mini Schnauzer. It’s a scenic 10-minute drive to Port Fairy and a 5 minute one to Koroit. Cleaners understandably typically look at their height and below to ensure the floors, walls and fitting are clean. Some of the hanging light fittings and higher up on the walls need a gentle wipe to remove bird droppings and dust. We enjoyed our stay at Harmony.

We had the most amazing time at Harmony. Check in was seamless with the lockbox with code to get in and the communication with the owners was super quick. The unit (number 5) is spotless with the most comfortable bed and fluffy pillows. Everything we could possibly need was there - including a sharp knife that actually cuts (a first for us when we’ve stayed anywhere!) Our little dog loved the green grassy areas and enjoyed trying to make friends with the resident bunnies. We didn’t have time, but there’s a fabulous games room and bbq area that’s there for the enjoyment of guests. It’s close to Koroit, Port Fairy and Warrnambool and we will definitely be back to explore more of the area. 11 out of 10 - thanks guys!

Unique setting in a former school portable. Well set up and presented. Loved the stone floor in the shower. Lovely set up with communal fireplace in the communal space (disappointed it was too cold to venture out to light the fire although it was set ready to go). Minutes drive from Tower Hill Reserve. Disappointed that windows needed a clean and missing extras that make paying a little more for a place like this worth it such as ground coffee to go in the plunger supplied, a little more milk as it wasn't enough for 2 cereals plus milk in coffee, herbal tea offers.

Only 6 units on the property which are former school classrooms. Yes, it's on the main road but there's hardly any traffic at night. The communication from the owners pre-arrival was excellent and we were left to our own devices. Also breakfast for the first morning is provided (to self prepare). The pebble floor shower took a little getting used to! There is an information folder which covers everything about staying in the property which was great. The unit had everything we needed including heating and air con. Would stay there again. The owners are selling so will be interesting to see if anything changes once there's a change of ownership.

Overpriced. Not as clean as I would like. Grubby light switches. Not sure how the shower is cleaned with loose pebble floor. Bathroom flooring coming away on wall. Convenient location to Warrnambool, Koroit and Port Fairy. Great size unit. Comfortable king size bed and good quality pillows. Well equipped and units arranged to provide privacy. Overall good but not great for the price.

Thanks for your review. The pebble shower is cleaned with a disinfecting solution after every stay and pebbles are removed and bleached monthly to ensure that they are cleaned and hygienic. Apologies for the light switches - we are under some difficulty at the moment with my husband having broken his hand and not able to assist. That said, more careful attention will be paid to such issues. The coved flooring is to be repaired and we await the arrival of the repairer having notified them some weeks ago. Your feedback assists us to ensure improvement

Good but noisy
Very nice accommodation only drawback was the proximity (30 m) to a main road which meant we had trucks passing all night. No double glazing so quite noisy.
Stayed 1 night in Jan 2018
Response from Amanda on Jan 30, 2018
Thanks for the review David. We understand that the traffic noise can be annoying especially when not accustomed to living close to a thoroughfare as we do. Regrettably proximity to towns and local attractions has a downside for some with traffic noise, That said, we have Units that are further away from the Highway and can do our best to accommodate that preference if requested. Also given the nature of the structures we have being re-furbished school classrooms, installation of double glazing is not a viable option. We hope you will return and that we can assist your stay in the future
