My boyfriend and I recently stayed at Flinders Cove Motel and were absolutely delighted by the service we received. Having booked over the phone, Terry (the owner) was very helpful and took my booking without a deposit or my credit card details - he simply trusted that I would show up and pay on arrival. The town of Flinders is... More

We booked based on a recommendation from the Information Bureau but upon arrival (after speaking also with owners prior) were charged $60 more than quoted. Owner was rude over phone and in person and refused to accept any ownership over incorrect quote. Horrible service so we will not be back again.

We had limited choice of where to stay for a wedding in Flinders. This was the cheapest option but was still very pricey for a 1 night stay . It's a very dated old motel so I would expect to pay a lot less. The bathroom was a bit grubby and like a caravan park bathroom with a weird low... More

This is an unrenovated 1980's motel but in good condition and built like many local houses - low, flat roof (except for skylights), brick, with cedar windows and doors. Bed very comfortable with good quality cotton sheets. Very obliging hosts (thanks,Terry!) gave us choice of room and reduced rate for our 4 night stay in early January. We made breakfast... More

This place was really nice and clean. Very retro like 80s scarface style :) It had a good vibe and feel to it and not bad price. Big beds, cool shower I would recommend this place to anyone :)

We stayed in a family room which was fantastic for the 5 of us that stayed at the Motel. Bedding downstairs & upstairs on the mezzanine were comfortable with plenty of extra blankets provided. Motel is in a great location within walking distance from all of Flinders attractions. Service was great and was the perfect place to stay for our... More

Nice motel, it's a shame it doesn't operate the restaurant or lease it out, the Flinders Hotel is horribly expensive, but the fish and chip place in the little shopping do a fine job. The pub is the only restaurant in the place and charges too much for too big and pretentious meal. Anyone with any business nous could give... More

We stayed at the motel part of the hotel. Tariff was $150 per night for a double, which was too much for what we were provided with, in my opinion. I thought around $110 would have been about right for the place. The motel over the road is cheaper and looks ok from the outside. We had a Jug, toaster,... More

Short version: Go in Summer and spring. If you get cold easily, bring a blanket. Rooms are clean with electric blanket. Went with friends (five in total). Motel level. Overall: It's not a bad place, I've stayed at worst however I have to say that if you're a couple out for something romantic, look elsewhere. If you're a family or... More
