T
his hotel was originally built in 1880, in
the picturesque village of Volcano and
has just four guestrooms. We love the
Limon room, with doors out onto the veranda
and views up and down the main street – a
great spot to sit in the evening and watch the
world go (very slowly) by.The Limon bathroom
has a wonderfully comfortable roll top bath,
and despite the historic nature of the Inn,
guestrooms have every modern comfort from
flat panel TVs, toWi-Fi, DVD and iPod players.
Downstairs, there’s a busy pub that is
extremely popular with locals and travellers
alike, serving hearty food and local brews and
wines.
EATING:
Of course you have to try the onsite pub at the Inn,
or for a spot of fine dining head into Plymouth and to
Taste, the Inn’s sister restaurant. Dishes are creative and
extremely tasty, with smart, efficient service.
THINGSTO DO:
Gold Country surrounds you,with forests to explore
and lots of activities. Nearby there’s the Black Chasm
Cavern, where you can take a trip deep down into
the cave system and take a tour of the amazing rock
formations.
