Beautiful Stay in Strahan
Franklin Manor was a beautiful historic house. It was a short walk into Strahan along the waterfront. Thomas, the manager and his wife were very friendly and helpful. The breakfast that was included, was beautifully presented & delicious.

The interior of the property suited the exterior - a period piece of excellence. Staff were great, the area quiet and peaceful - just what we wanted. A perfect location for the railway and river cruise journey's that again were both excellent (recommended).

A true mansion!
First impressions were Wow!
The history and decor is true to the character. Staff can’t do enough for you - always happy to oblige.
Breakfast was good, comfort was high. No TV wasn’t an issue with so much to do and enjoy if you desire.
Easy walking access to town.
Parking can be challenging during busy times.

A beautiful property in a lovely location. Close enough to town and the foreshore that everything is within easy reach and yet far enough out that it was quite peaceful. A gorgeous old building with wonderful staff. A great place to explore the west coast.
