Reviewed Jan 16, 2026I really enjoyed my stay at Bures Pass Country Motels. The room was very clean and tidy, everything felt well looked after. The shower is new and stylish, and the mirror is great. I also appreciated the care for breakfast — toast with butter and jam was provided, which was a nice touch. And the host is absolutely wonderful — very friendly and welcoming. Highly recommended!

Reviewed Jan 13, 2026It was in a very tranquil area. The only “unusual” you will hear is the traffic you might hear passing over the highway. The hosting couple is very friendly and accommodating. The beds were comfy and everything looked neat and clean. We absolutely loved the church opposite the road. A-must-visit!! The vintage and Antiques store across the road is worth the visit as well.
