TheEveryone should experience a night there. To learn the history of the buildings. The careers of goal, were very helpful

Great mattress, great shower, even the double bunk mattress was pretty good. Very warm and cozy.

Amazing location with authentic accommodation. Clean share kitchen with all amenities for meal preparation and cosy lounge for relaxing. Interesting to see all the history of the goal and how much has been done by Mel and James to transform it into a unique stay away. Really a great experience.

The whole experience. The opportunity to stay in an historic gaol and immerse ourselves in the history.

Liked the fact of it still being as tho your staying at a prison without being a prisoner.....

Easy to check in, great accom in twin room with toilet and basin with brand new shared shower facility just out the door, great kitchen facilities. Really enjoyed the history on the walls around the gaol.

Awesome experience walking distance to town awesome hosts definitely recommend doing

You can have special cuddles on your first time in Gaol without the feeling of being violated while keeping your dignity

Such a fascinating place - so seeped in history. The fact we slept in a cell was amazing and it made the visit quite memorable.

The feel of this place is fantastic. Initially it has quite an eery feel and once you have explored the entire gaol you begin to feel very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again and would recommend it to others for the experience.
