Southern Cross Tavern Hotel reviews

5 Star Review by Suzanne Raue

Very friendly and accommodating. We had a great time at a private function. BBQ, fridge tables and chairs. Even able to play our own music. Plenty of undercover and grassed area. We supplied our own food and purchased alcohol. What a brilliant idea. Thank you to the management.
