I loved so much about this property and had a wonderful stay. Room was spacious and in good condition, bathroom had a corner spa and looked recently refurbished. A lovely outlook onto the garden and I enjoyed having an early morning cuppa on my verandah. Only a few small things I'd like to see improved - a mirror in the main room would be handy, the bread supplied at breakfast didn't fit in the toaster, and the shower door didn't close properly so bathroom floor became very wet. Overall a great stay and I'd stay here again.

Very scenic location and delicious wine. Room was clean and spacious and designated parking. Slight mix up with our late check in but they over compensated with the apology gifts. Highly recommend and will definitely stay again.

Spacious room but dated. Restaurant only open Thurs - Sat so had to go to town for food - no breakfast either. Very quiet stay as no one around at the winery. Pleasant area to stay - on wine trail for walking.

Large, comfortable rooms set in picturesque grounds very close to town. The room was clean but starting to look a little ‘tired’. Kitchen includes a microwave and coffee pod machine but only 2 pods which weren’t topped up during the stay. Well stocked minibar and spa in the bathroom if that’s your sort of thing. Overall good value and pleasant stay.

Mother in law passed that morning but would not consider on compassionate reasons our cancellation or allow us to change the date. Blame Expedia as a 3rd party platform but I am sure they got paid.
