Lovely hosts, warm and comfortable BnB with great continental breakfast.
Love everything about this place.
Absolutely nothing at all.
Comfortable and clean, a very exceptional place. All amenities included.
It was perfect
Great, friendly and generous hosts. Historic home with charm and character. Will definitely stay again.
Exactly as shown in photos - you have the three front rooms of a lovely old villa set in pretty gardens. Completely private and quiet but the owners are on site if you need them. Quaint and quirky, a step back in time. Spacious bedroom with lovely comfortable bed and high quality linens, great big bathroom with good quality towels, and sitting room with generous breakfast provisions, fruit and treats. Leonie and Dale are great hosts, kind and thoughtful. The villa is just along from the main shopping/cafe area, so handy to everything. Greytown was busy at Easter and the surrounding streets were at a premium for parking so I appreciated Dale's offer of off-street parking. I would stay again and recommend to others.
Location is great if you want very easy access to the town centre. Beautifully clean and comfy. Wonderful, thoughtful hosts who genuinely have tried to think of everything you might need during your stay including an amazing assortment of continental self-serve breakfast options. It is an older property (clue is in the name) so if you want uber-modern furniture this isn’t for you.
There is nothing not to like. Just be aware as mentioned of older style furnishing in keeping with the property and the main road location (windows are double glazed so road noise inside isn’t a problem).
Great spot and people!
Nothing. Everything was fantastic.
Both Leonie and Jeanette were very helpful and obliging and answered queries happily. The accommodation took me back and reminded me what my grandmothers home looked and felt like - comforting.
Water pressure in the shower was not strong, small kitchenette was a little hard to navigate but manageable.
The ambience was lovely and it was a very short walk into town. Breakfast supplies were excellent, the bed was comfortable, and we liked having the lounge/dining area as well as the spacious bedroom. We would stay there again.
Extremely clean, lots of options provided for breakfast. The area you stay in is large.
Great hosts and a very spacious well equipped property
N/a
As expected the decor was from another era and very well done. Everything you could need supplied and the bed was exceptionally comfortable
It’s on the main street so you are aware of the traffic early in the morning
Great location, every detail thought of, comfy bed, generous breakfast provisions, quiet and peaceful.
A beautiful place, spacious, clean, comfortable, private and very central.
Nice people running a lovely older style house and have equipped it well !!
Nothing really
Location was very good. We were able to walk everywhere in the town. Breakfast was well catered for.
Nothing. We felt it was perfect for our needs and hopefully come again.
We loved everything about our stay. The amount of space, the comfortable bed, breakfast, location and the wonderful hosts. We would like to think we will be back.
Spacious and warm, and with all the little extras. THE most comfortable bed!
The fact that we weren’t there long enough to enjoy it properly!
Very cosy in the center of town. Wonderful
A lovely selection of self-serve items were made available.
There was NOTHING to dislike about this property!
Very comfortable accommodation with large lounge bedroom and bathroom. Very nice older style decor. Very welcoming host. Good location within easy walking distance of shops and cafes. Parking available.
Nothing of note.
Fine for what we needed. Great location close to everything.
Having a full apartment: bedroom, living room and bathroom was exceptional. Double glazin cut Dow the noise of the highway. Easy parking on a side road
We liked everything about The Old School House. Leonies attention to detail and comfort are so thoughtful.
There's absolutely nothing to not like.
Our second stay at The Old School House. Leonie and Dale are welcoming and helpful hosts. The rooms are very comfortable, spacious and clean. Very well appointed with every thoughtful breakfast and snack item! Just a step out the front gate and into the beautiful Greytown town centre.
Basically everything!, 😊
Nothing!
Very friendly hosts. Very central location and a lovely set up with own lounge ,bathroom and bedroom.
Friendly hosts. Excellent location and very comfortable. It really deserves 20/10! Thank you.
Absolutely nothing could be improved!
Wonderfully comfortable bed in a beautiful house. We had breakfast in the lovely garden outside our front door.
It's on the main street through town.
Location was excellent - just a short walk into the town centre. Easy to find with free parking right outside - even though the owner offered his own spot in the carport!! The large bed was super comfy and luxurious. Excellent 'reading' light on both sides of the bed. The bathroom was superb! Loved the decor and wooden floor, good size shower cubicle, plenty of supplies, large mirror, chair for clothing, hooks for towels. The kitchen was FULLY equipped with all you would need for a king's breakfast - wow! So many choices and all very well laid out - they thought of everything! The lounge area was cosy and well thought out for comfort, tv instructions (always need that now), comfy armchairs, great night lighting down the hallway. The owners met us with friendliness, smiles and such a welcome feeling. Then they left to give us privacy, but with a note that they were on hand if needed. Their lovely shop on the side of the house was a bonus to rummage through craft and tastefully sought out 2nd hand items. We sat on the large verandah for afternoon drinks and enjoyed a salad meal on the dining table in the lounge. Thank you Leonie and Dale - an amazing place for guests, tastefully decorated throughout, you are super friendly hosts who have thought of everything to make guests feel right at home. Highly recommended stay - you won't be disappointed. You will want to stay longer!
We enjoyed the atmosphere of the home with large rooms reminiscent of the period of the house, made more enjoyable by the warm and inviting hosts. We would highly recommend them and would definitely return for another holiday in that area.
Everything was perfect.
The extra fruit bowl, and the bed
Great host, warm comfortable accommodation that will be hard to surpass.
The house was comfortable and very lovely. It was right by the main road (a very convenient location and easy to find) and the windows did a phenomenal job of keeping the traffic sounds out. I didn’t spend much time outside but it had a beautiful garden. The continental breakfast was great, with lots of options. I’d love to stay again!
No negatives, we had a great stay! One neutral thing to note is that there wasn’t technically parking on-site but there was so much free street parking right outside that it wasn’t a problem at all.
The friendliness of the hosts was exceptional. Everything was first class.
Not a thing.
The Old School is an exceptional historical property the hosts were wonderful and gave us total privacy but were always available to help if required. Thank you for a wonderful two days. Brian and Diane
Nothing
The Location was perfect for seeing this small town. There is plenty to eat and you are left to your own devices during the whole stay. you have your own lounge where you can relax and watch TV.
We were worried about road noise but in the end we didn't notice any. The main parking for the location is on the street. Though not ideal the owners will let you put your vehicle in the drive if you are worried about your vehicle.
Fantastic location, comfortable, cozy and with lots of extras and special touches.
Beautiful and clean
Nothing to dislike
Very comfortable and plenty of room
Noise from busy road outside
Really comfortable all we needed .Charming and delightful
Our host was there to greet us on arrival and showed us all the facilities. We enjoyed the space of bedroom, sitting room and large bathroom. Continental breakfast worked well for us. Bed was very comfortable and we slept soundly.
Main street is very busy with traffic, although did calm down at night. Decor is deliberately old fashioned so not quite to our taste, but not inappropriate for the property.
Superbly decorated and extreme attention to detail. Owners where extremely welcoming, helpful and genuinely lovely, without being intrusive. Gardens are beauty and complement this historic house.
Nothing: all was fabulous!
Did not have breakfast -away early. Location was good, very close to town center, and on the Main Street. I met Leonie who showed the facilities and gave me a key so that i would not disturb her on returning later. I attended a reunion and dinner.
Nothing! All good, clean and well appointed.
We liked everything, private self contained, comfy bed, great bathroom with lovely soaps etc. Lots of breakfast options and snacks. Warm welcome from owners. Lovely front porch and beautiful garden setting.
Nothing
We loved our stay at the old schoolhouse! Leonie and Dale share a very cosy and comfortable guest appartment in their house with lovely details and many nice extra's. They made us feel very welcome. Greytown is a really nice old town to spend a weekend.
