this was really a top quality 5* B&B Joy was very very welcoming nothing was to much trouble, the breakfast was simply fantastic, the home made scones were about the best I have ever tasted. Joy even feeds the parrots and parakeets so you can sit and watch them while having your own breakfast, or just look out over the... More

We arrived mid afternoon and were greeted by Joy--- we so enjoyed chatting with her at length. Her presence though, is unobtrusive; we were on our own in the evening, and felt that we were alone in the big house (we were the only guests). But we so enjoyed her knowledge and fun conversation when we arrived, and again at... More

What a great place to stay. Joy is a wonderful host making you feel so welcome. Unlike any other place we stayed at all guests eat Joys excellent breakfast at the same large table. Due to us having to change the dates of our original booking we stayed in 2 seperate rooms, both of which were extremely comfortable and both... More

Lovely Joy takes care of you like you're family. Lookout over the ocean is very nice and the rooms generally look ok. But dust and spider webs could be removed better especially from the ceiling. Excellent breakfast! More

We loved Australia. Went to Sydney, Melbourne, and stopped at cities in between as we traveled. Spent two nights at the Goat and Goose and just loved it! Nice break from the big cities, and just so amazing. The view from the deck of the Gooses Nest is to die for! Joy is so wonderful and completely respects your privacy,... More

We were driving between Sydney & Adelaide and the Trip Advisor reviews made this place stand out so we made sure we could stop off on our drive. Unfortunately we only had time for a 1 night stay which was a shame - another time we'd try to stay for longer. We were in the Goose's Nest which had a... More

Such a beautiful panoramic view from the room and the breakfast table...instantly relaxing! The breakfast choices are plentiful and well cooked, Joy the host is just lovely and extremely helpful. The room could do with a bit of a dust in some of the hard to reach places but the room is very clean otherwise. More

What makes a B&B is really the host. Joy is the main reason why you should stay in The Goat and Goose if you are in Lakes Entrance. Joy is extremely friendly, with a wealth of information on the area, and she is the perfect host who makes it a point to have a chat with all her guests. And... More

If this is not a front runner for one of Australia's best B&B's, I don't know what is. An eclectic cabin style residence with panoramic views of the Lakes Entrance region in luxury accommodation approximately 3km from the main town centre. So clean, warm and comfortable. The breakfast part of the B&B is something to behold with stunning fruit platter,... More

We would like to say a great big thank you to Joy for letting us stay at her wonderful home. This was such a relaxing place to stay and we were made to feel at home as soon as we arrived. We stayed in the little cottage next to the house, with a very comfy 4 poster bed, a wonderful... More
