Tally Ho Motor Inn

We were welcomed by the manager of this property who was pleasant and gave us just exactly the info we needed. The room was clean, comfy and we were very happy to have stayed there.

Undercover parking was great during rain ‘ Rooms small but clean, tidy and quiet . Good rates . Would stay again here

The hosts were very lovely and welcoming.

Our overall experience was quite good with the traffic noise kept waking us up.

Stayed at the Motor Inn for two nights in the middle of the dreadful fires.The New England Highway was closed both north and south also the Bruckner Highway was closed, so we were trapped. The motel looked after us and cooked our dinner the first night. The room was great with all amenities (TV, Foxtel, large refrigerator and microwave). It was very clean and a comfortable large bed. The is one of several times we have stayed here and can't praise the managers enough, and they kept us informed about the fires while looking after a large number of fire fighters.

I stayed here for 1 night on a weekend trip away. The plan was to check out Girraween National Park & do some hiking & maybe visit a winery or 2. Tally Ho was a great choice - it was only 25 minutes from Girraween NP (where I did hikes both days) & I wanted to cross the border into NSW for the first time since Covid and stay for a night. $99 was great value for a double room that included an electric blanket (much needed - it was 3 degrees!) & free continental breakfast brought to your room. The room was small but cosy & there were only 2 other cars behind motel rooms so it was nice & quiet. There was a security gate with key access so I felt safe. It was only a 2 minute drive into Tenterfield town centre (where I walked past Barnaby Joyce’s office!). I had dinner in town at Commercial Boutique Hotel that night & the next day drove into town for coffee and then up to Mt Mackenzie Lookout. Tip - Watch your speed once you get over the QLD border as there is a camera just before you come into town and it’s only 50km an hour & after 2 hrs plus going 100km/hr it’s hard to slow down to what feels like a snail pace by comparison
