Great location in Margaret River. The property is on the highway so traffic noise is a problem Excellent breakfast! My room had a very dusty bathroom fan and a few cobwebs which were surprising. The old carpet really needs to be replaced with healthy tiles for easy cleaning…. Carpet is scary! Great selection of pillows which is appreciated and lovely quality sheets With a little effort this place could be 4*’s

My husband and I stayed here while visiting from Canada in early 2024 and it was the perfect location for our visit to the area. It's clear that the Lodge's hosts, Helen and Terry, take pride in welcoming guests and helping them make the most of their time in and around Margaret River. With walkable restaurants and bars and easy drives to caves, beaches, scenic views and more, this was ideally located. The daily breakfast with pastries, muffins, breads and spreads, yogurt, fruit and more made for a great start to each day. We had a wonderful visit here.

Margaret River
This was a two night stay. The setting is really nice. However the property is very dated especially the bathroom. I can only say the property has very little charm. However the bed was extremely comfortable The property is very close to the centre of Margaret River. Breakfast was ok. My main concern was the wooden steps to the room, the riser gave way resulting in me falling. Only a minor graze, but could have been much more serious.Clearly it lacks maintenance. However the manager quickly resolved the issue.

Sorry you did not like your room. The bathrooms were done up about 5 years ago. Maintenance is ongoing so sorry it did not agree with your personal taste and it is unfortunate you fell and hurt your knee.

Beautiful spacious rooms overlooking a Karri forest trail yet close enough to the centre of Margaret River to walk to the main shopping streets and restaurants. Great continental buffet breakfasts with local produce in a spacious light filled country style dining room, surrounded by lush gardens and furnished with wood from local trees. We are "local" Perth people and have returned again and again to this lovely venue.

This is a lovely, conveniently located, and friendly hotel to stay, if you are in Margaret River or exploring the wider region. In-between the hotel lodges, and within the gardens, beautiful vegetation thrives. It is lovely to emerge from one's hotel room and step into a garden! The hotel is usefully located a short walk from the centre of Margaret River and next door to the Margaret River Brewhouse, where tasty beer, wine and food can be gleaned. Some nice shops, bars, cafes, restaurants can be found in town. We were warmly welcomed by Michelle, who provided ideas for nearby excursions, walking trails and so forth. Breakfast is very good. It is a buffet style continental breakfast, with great options for cereal, yogurt, local cheeses, cold meats, local fruits and preserves. A great start to a tourists' day of sight-seeing! :-) Rooms are large, clean, and comfortable, with a patio area for seating (looking out onto the bush, where you may spot a galah!). My only minor gripe is that the bathrooms would benefit from a little modernisation. I would stay here again and would highly recommend it!

The place is very well located just at the edge of Margaret River township. There is a walking trail which follows Margaret River, at the back of the lodge. The breakfast was lovely offering local produces. Finally, the host was most helpful.

Room was nice. Bathroom needs upgrading. Main issue is road noise. The property sits on the Bussell Highway with continuous road noise between 6am and 10pm.

Hi Andrew,You booked one of our cheaper rooms near the front of the property which can be susceptible to road noise if you are a light sleeper. The majority of guests that stay in those rose rooms don't have a problem.The forest view rooms and the luxury rooms are at the back of the property and there is no road noise.Regards, Terry

We loved our stay at Heritage Trail Lodge. The owner was very attentive and we had a thoroughly enjoyable stay. The room was warm and cosy. The access to Brewhouse Brewery and nearby shopping was great. I enjoyed the spa bath,although it took me a while to work out the on/off button as it was a bit stiff!! The breakfast was great and even though it was not a cooked breakfast there was lots of good variety. Will be back!!!

Terry the owner was friendly and helpful. We enjoyed our stay and the ambiance was amazing. Loved the gardens and mini waterworks. Restaurants are within walking distance and the walking trails start right behind the rooms. Breakfast was the same everyday. Options would be nice. Maybe put in a microwave in the rooms for warming up small meals. Otherwise a big thanks to the team that run this place.
