A beautiful property with a wonderful garden and lots of unique, cozy spaces throughout. A short distance from the lovely town of Maldon, would love to come back for another stay. ##### Andrew F. Stayed 3 nights in Dec 2021 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Christine C. 8 May 2018 #### A beautiful appointed property furnished in keeping with the historical era. My family stayed midweek in Autumn and were very impressed with this beautiful Hotel. It was decorated and furnished to the highest standard with amazing attention to detail. The garden was very relaxing sitting under the birch trees enjoying the peace and quiet. The Hotel was spacious, clean, comfortable and a real treat to step back into history. I would highly recommend this experience to others and hope to return again! ##### Christine C.

Even before festivities began, the owners made ideal suggestions for catering; Le Sel's, Miss Pritchard's Pantry and Maldon Butcher, all of which were exceptional and locally produced. They also honoured changes in check in/out times and made all the necessary arrangements to ensure our stay was all about spending quality time with family and friends, and living it up! Like from the pages of a glossy House & Home magazine, the guests were impressed with the Hotel design and decor, highlights being the bar entrance, long dining table/chandelier and chillaxed lounge room setting. It is testament to the efforts of the owners and the ideal accomodation at the Eaglehawk, that you leave on a high and adamant that you will someday return; due to the great memories that were made! ##### JACOB M. This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### RICHENDA V. 11 Mar 2017 #### Best place in Maldon We hired the full hotel for a hens weekend with 11 ladies and it was perfect! As soon as we walked in we were in awe of the beautiful home - especially the decor and magnificent dining area. One of our most special memories of the weekend is when Richenda (yes same name as me - first time in my life!) from Miss Pritchard's Pantry came and cooked a delicious meal for us. At $40 per head, it was an incredible feast that she made quickly and we enjoyed sitting on the beautiful long table with incredible chandelier above our heads. This house has EVERYTHING (yes everything!) you need to accomodate a group, a beautiful outdoor area and comfy beds. It was perfect too because Ken and Mark accommodated early check-in and late check out - they made all the beds individual instead of single. Seriously, no complaints except that it took a while to figure the coffee machine out (but still it worked and made great coffee). If you have the opportunity to stay here with a group - don't go anywhere else. ##### RICHENDA V. ---
