The perfect home away from home ... with added little luxuries.
We had the perfect nights sleep in a comfortable king size bed after relaxing in a huge spa bath.
Full sized kitchen was fully equiped with all we need to prepare our own meals.
The pool and BBQ area were clean and well maintaine, a great place to unwind after spending the day exploring the beautiful local region.
Honestly, we didn't want to leave!

a surprising little stop

We found ourselves in Gloucester when the fires prevented us from our intended beach destination. The space itself was BEAUTIFUL and probably one of the most comfortable beds we slept in during the trip. It's more like an apartment than a hotel so it was a little tricky to figure out how to access the keys. We needed to call a number and get walked through a lock box. Very easy, but not like your typical hotel check in. It's only steps to town so we were able to go get food and a drink real easy.

Great accommodation, excellent location.

Very spacious and clean with everything well thought of. We had a well appointed and full kitchen, spacious living area, large bathroom with separate shower and spa bath. We were supplied with fluffy terry towelling robes and slippers. A lovely surprise were the complimentary chocolates left on our bed.
There was an excellent variety of DVD movies available for us to see. Unfortunately the DVD player didn't work on our first night, but it only took one phone call to Trudy and she promptly arrived with a new DVD player!
The property also had an inground swimming pool and well kept BBQ entertainment area which we didn't use. There was also a communal laundry on site. My husband & I enjoyed our breakfast sitting on the patio overlooking views of the mountains and listening to all the birds around us. The Great Escape Lofts are an easy walk into the town and a short drive to numerous walks around Barrington NP. We would definitely stay here again.

Spacious Loft Apartments

We travelled to Gloucester via Hunter Valley then took the Scenic route off New England Highway to Moonan Flats then over Barrington Tops in Barrington National Park.
Scenery , Lookouts and History was amazing!

As we were attending a function in Historic Stroud we also got to travel on the Scenic Bucketts Way both to and from Gloucester.

Breakfast at the Roadies Cafe was also a highlight. Great food, Cleanliness and service.
We'll be back!

Very spacious and well appointed accommodation. Reception is via mobile, you are given instructions to get your key when you get through. I never got the Wi-fi working. There are five remote controls, all different and no instructions. No breakfast or food available. Poor choice in town on Monday and Tuesday. Oh, and the bathroom is a trek from the upstairs bed.

Open loft in country town

The Great Escape Loft provide a home away from home. Large bathroom, open living space with a room with a view. In a quiet street in a lovely country town.
While there is no reception, our hostess called in to make sure everything was ok and gave us great advice on where to eat in town.

Close to all amenities

This was our second stay this year and it is one of the best places we have ever stayed. A short walk to anything you need in town and Gloucester is a central base to explore the district. The apartment has everything you want plus a few things more. Can't fault them. A place to come back to for a short or long break from the humdrum of life.

Loft apartments - comfortable

We stayed for two nights in January so we could do some walks in the rainforest. Unit was clean and comfortable. Features we liked were the pool, two air cons, large spa and roomy areas. Only drawback was the bathroom downstairs and bedroom upper level but this was expected. Bed was extremely comfortable.

Great hotel for a combination romance adventure stay. Gloucester has many activities for the adventure seeker. It's nice to unwind afterwards in a spacious quiet apartment like The Lofts. The apartment was spotlessly clean and tastefully presented. Located in a quiet street walking distance to Gloucester's main street is a bonus.

Really nice convenient place to stay.

I arrived early afternoon and left the next morning. The directions and instructions were clear and precise. When I opened the door I just loved the whole layout of the place. The room was very clean and all comforts had been thought of.
Unfortunately I had so much on in town that I did not have time to use the fabulous spa bath. The shower however, had great water pressure. The loft king bed and bedding was divine.
I would definitely stay here again and bring my partner.
