The Old Parkes Convent

Lovely old world charm with spacious and comfortable rooms

We had a lovely cosy stay. Very close to the main street and restaurants

Wonderful hosts, huge room, quirky and fun

The ground floor Music Room is very comfortable and well-equipped. We especially appreciated the access to a laundry and drying facilities.

I loved the uniqueness of the property and apartment. It was very cosy and made me feel very much like I was on a vacation! Additionally, the bed was very comfortable, space to spread out was fantastic, and the kitchen and breakfast was everything we needed!

Beautifully presented historic property in the heart of Parkes. Being pet friendly our dogs got to enjoy it too.

We had 1 night here.  Although old-style accommodation, it was excellent, with a lot of character and charm.  We were in the "Music Room", which was enormous (really a whole apartment).  The bed was very comfortable.  Everything we needed was there.  The outdoor seating areas were good, although it was a bit too hot for us to use them much.  The breakfast supplies were very generous.  Located within few minutes' walk of the main street. Would definitely recommend as an alternative to a standard motel room.

We were surprised by the size of the room and how beautifully it was appointed. Would be great for a family. The facilities were spotless and in character with the era which made for a unique and pleasant experience.

Owners were very welcoming everything exceeded expectations

Comfortable stay in Parkes

Greeted by Colin, Miss Til (little terrier) and immediately felt the old world charm. Colin showed us to our very spacious, butt cosy self contained apartment and explained the history - the 'room' had been the homework/study area for female students.... " A place of learning and discipline'. Very light and airy with a quaint little verandah, comfortable kitchen - everything we needed, even bathrobes. A plentiful breakfast, we wanted for nothing....and the bed gave us a great night's sleep. Would recommend this charming piece of local history. Thank you Colin...and Miss Til!

We loved our stay at this place. From the moment of our arrival, Colin made us and our two young children feel very welcome. The kids loved the lemons picked straight from the tree - and the chickens. The room was so interesting and very comfortable. It was clean and warm. The breakfast items set us up perfectly for another day on the road. We would highly recommend this lovely place.

An extraordinary and wonderful place to stay - the suite was elegant and very practical - even more pleasing was accommodation allowed pets. The Old Convent is a must for anyone travelling along the Newell Highway - cannot recommend it highly enough! Centrally located - welcoming and very obliging owner! Breakfast was outstanding and included eggs from their own chickens!

A wonderful suite & stay at the Old Convent Parkes

Beautiful historical building with spacious and comfortable rooms. Lovely welcome from the owners too. We enjoyed a dip in the hot tub in the garden then walked a couple of hundred metres to the Woolworths to buy food and cooked it in our kitchen before settlling in to watch The Dish on the DVD provided. The breakfast ingredients provided were plentiful and delicious and the flexibility was wonderful. Highly recommend the Convent as a lovely alternative to motels.

We booked at the very last minute and the hosts were very accommodating. We had The Top Of the Chapel room which was enormous.  A huge queen or king comfy bed, a beautifully decorated lounge space with period furniture, a dining area and anextra double bunk bed. The fully equipped kitchen area was seperate from the bed/lounge and included breakfast supplies which were enough for dinner as well, and complimentary port. The bathrooms were modest but functional.  The property had chooks and a friendly cat.  The room also had DVDs books and games available.  We had a great time.

We had a wonderful experience at the Old Parkes Convent.  It was a magnicent apartment, extremely spacious comfortable and had so much charm & character.  The king size bed was so comfortable. The apartment had everything that you would need for a relaxing stay.  The hosts were very generous and had even provided a fridge full of goodies including bread, milk, butter, bacon & eggs & even orange juice.  The spa was a welcoming sight after a long day on the road.  The apartment was extremely clean & tidy.  Highly recommend this accomodation to any one.

Wonderful stay at the Old Parkes Convent

Quaint and charming,   Authentic period features and location, you can see the history in the building and area.  aircon/gas fire/Electric Blankets are provided and are essential for the cold months of the year (July) in Parkes.

Property was very clean and is certainly “a step back in time” as it was built in 1910.
