Testimonial

We have today recieved our "heart of the Country" Holiday Promotion prize for which my wife and I express our appreciation.

We have enjoyed staying at Golden Chain motels when holidaying on the "Big Island". We find in most cases they are of very high standard and the proprietors have always been welcoming and friendly towards us. An example of this is when we stayed at the Heritage Motel in Wagga Wagga last September, the Manager saw us waiting for the courtesy bus for the RSL Club and he did not hesitate to drive us there in his private vehicle. We were very grateful as it was raining at the time.

My wife and I have entered your companies' promotions on a number of previous occasions hoping but never expecting to win. My wife felt that this time we would and we did! We are still in shock.

Once again many thanks and we both look forward to using the cash and vouchers on our next holiday.
