Merrijig Inn - A historic 4-star inn with local dining and riverside charm

Merrijig Inn offers antique-style bed and breakfast accommodations with free breakfast, Wi-Fi in public areas, and a historic atmosphere. Situated across from Port Fairy's historic wharf along the Moyne River, the inn features two styles of rooms: spacious downstairs suites, including a King Suite with a private entrance and verandah, and cozy Attic Rooms in the oldest part of the building. The restaurant, The Merrijig Kitchen, serves a daily dinner menu focusing on locally sourced produce in a historic dining room, open Friday to Monday. Guests can relax at one of two bars-Merrijig Front Bar with regional wines and spirits or the seasonal Garden Bar for summer afternoons with river views. The property includes a guest lounge with a fireplace, a library, and a working kitchen garden. Nearby attractions include the Shipwreck Walk Trail (3-minute walk) and Port Fairy Golf Club (6-minute drive).

Some attic rooms have steep stairs and limited space due to historic architecture.
