THE BEST place to stay in Murchison.
Amazing day-of booking for a two night stay at Murchison Lodge. Phillip was a top-notch host, and a crazy nice person as well. Cooked a DELICIOUS breakfast every morning. I would highly recommend staying here anytime.

Minor complaint
Lovely location and accommodation
Only criticism was we stayed at the coldest night of the year so far and our room was very cold the next morning as there was no heating apart from an electric fan in the bathroom
