The Avon Valley region has SO much to explore, so why not stay for a weekend? The town of Toodyay has plenty to see and do – and Toodyay Manor is a wonderful home away from home.
Formerly the old Newcastle Hotel, and later the Toodyay Tavern, Toodyay Manor has been beautifully renovated. This is a fun fact for the kids… In the 1800s Toodyay was actually called Newcastle! By the early 1900s, the town’s mail was being incorrectly delivered to Newcastle in New South Wales, so Toodyay was born.

Family Deluxe Rooms
This time around, I was kid-free and I stayed in the “Single Suite Garden View” room. The very sweet and cosy room has plush carpet; the type that your toes sink into, a comfortable King Single bed, and quality bed linen.
The modern ensuite includes a shower with good pressure, sink with mirror and toilet.
There are tea, coffee and hot chocolate making facilities, a TV with Netflix, split system air-conditioner/heater, free wifi, and bar fridge. It was also a great time to catch up with the David Beckham doco!
Other amenities include a guest kitchen (complete with lolly jar!), guest library, secure off-street parking and a handy laundry too, if required.
There are places to sit and relax in the grounds, which were once the old beer garden.
Toodyay Manor is a short walk from Toodyay’s pubs, cafes, gift shops, museums, and of course the famous Toodyay bakery, guests have easy access to all that this lovely West Aussie town has to offer.
There’s a new playground just up the road too.
If you’re seeking comfortable accommodation in the Avon Valley region, Toodyay Manor is a must-stay. With its charming French aesthetic and convenient location, it offers up a great place for families to stay. I’d definitely stay there with my son!
