Beverley House

Terms & Conditions

We welcome you to our home. Just a reminder that Beverley House and Lauralla are Old historic Homes We hope that you have booked with us because you have a soft spot of lovely old homes…….There maybe a crack or two and it very definitely isn't shiny and new. is decorated with lovely antiques and collectibles. Our taste is quite eclectic and colorful some my feel ‘cluttered’.

Our photos are amateur not professional. Given that the photos reflect exactly how our house is; we assume that you have seen the photos and have booked with us knowing how our rooms are presented. In fact when you booked with us you have chosen your room specifically.

We hope that you will have a comfortable & pleasant stay with us…..and when giving a review we hope for a pleasant one……… Beverley House is our home not a Motel/Hotel with monotone decorating, Beverley is eclectic and interesting we hope that you find it special and fun……...if you have any questions or we can be of help just contact us to chat.

Breakfast is poached fruit in season/yogurt/milk/Orange & Apple juice/selection of breads, muffins etc/butter & jams. We also have a selection of dry cereals Muesli, corn flakes & weet bix for your selection.

The poached fruit selection is random & seasonal…..eg possibly Orange segments caramelized in Moroccan spices or maybe Pears poached in ginger & fennel or whole Apples poached in coconut cream & spices and stuffed with dates or perhaps Apple slices & raisins poached with cardamom, cinnamon & cumin.
Tea & Coffee
We have prepared a selection of teas & coffees, biscuits etc for you use during your stay. If you do not like the selection we have in place ….we offer you our commiserations; but the offering is complimentary . If you would like something different please feel free to bring along an alternative you will enjoy, we really don’t mind. We however will not be altering our selection or brand of tea or coffee or biscuits. On arrival you will find a small bottle of milk to tide you over to have tea & coffee when you arrive. You will have a renewed supply with your breakfast basket.
Port & Chocolates - We love that you enjoy the Port & Chocolates they are so tasty these are a complementary offering to welcome you to our home but are not refillable during your stay.
Technically speaking Beverley House is 3 self-contained apartments, with the emphasis on self-contained. We supply breakfast and the other bits and pieces because we like to. We enjoy having guests stay with us, its fun.

When you arrive you will find your apartment keys in your door waiting for you. On the Keyring will be your key to the front door and key to your apartment. We provide 1 set. If a set of keys is lost the cost to have them replaced is $30.

Which Apartment will you stay in…. Whilst we make every effort to give you the Room you would like. Occasionally this isn't possible. Perhaps repairs need to be done or some other unforeseen ‘THING’ has cropped up…….. If we have other Rooms available [Please note that you may be offered an alternate room]. If you prefer not to stay with us because the room you selected is not available; that’s fine, but the full tariff for your booking is still payable. A refund will not be given as the decision not to stay with us is yours alone.......when there is accommodation available. If we have no rooms available of course, you will be issued a refund.

If an overbooking has occurred we will notify you immediately…. We realise that it is a frustrating experience and we deeply regret that the situation has arisen. We will also immediately refund any monies you have paid us and we will work to find you alternate accommodation…… If none can be found again we are very sorry and can only offer our sincerest apologies…. We care deeply about the predicament and do not take it lightly……..…. perhaps you might decide to find your own alternate accommodation or have your accommodation agent find it for you.

Damages As you will have noticed Beverley House is furnished with an eclectic range of valuable antique and collectible furniture and decorative items. We really do love sharing our unique home with wonderful guests and we appreciate that accidents happen. But in saying that some damage is unfortunately because of miss use. If there is a breakage please let us know. We are for the most part understanding people……...
