Really enjoyed our stay at Tuscany Estate. The room was fantastic, beautifully furnished. The bathroom was spacious and had everything you need. The only issue was that our tv wasn’t working properly and it was late so we decided not to call to get it fixed. The only other let down was that the Broke Back Bar was not open for service, which is a real shame because we were looking forward to sitting in front of the fire for some wine and small bites to eat. The breakfast restaurant was really good and very delicious. Highly recommend.

I am a return client and love this venue. Accommodation as requested, check-in and out was easy and friendly, parking close to unit and free, excellent facilities for conferences, weddings, family groups, birthdays, reunions or great for couples. Catered for Gluten free meals a big plus for me. Overall great experience and I shall return.

A very pleasant outlook across vineyards to mountain range. Nice open grounds amongst the trees for a stroll. Enjoyed both the dining and breakfast facilities - very helpful and friendly staff. The rooms are adequate but I found the pillows very hard. Maintenance is questionable with faulty light globes in the bedside lights.

Room was very basic and walls so thin we could hear our neighbour yawn (and talk, tv etc). Overall looked very run down and has outdated interior. Great location but definitely not worth the room charge of $450 per night. I do appreciate everything is inflated in the Hunter, but still felt we were stung.

Unfortunately, our recent stay was extremely disappointing on multiple fronts. Upon our 9pm arrival, we were greeted by a room infested with mosquitoes. While we did locate a can of fly spray in the cupboard which somewhat addressed the immediate problem, the spray odor made it nearly impossible to sleep comfortably. The accommodations themselves left much to be desired. The room appeared severely outdated, while the bathroom facilities were noticeably unclean. The mattress was uncomfortably firm, resulting in back pain by morning. (Lucky we only had for two nights) We had hoped that perhaps the view might compensate for these shortcomings, but instead found ourselves overlooking stagnant water and unmaintained landscaping. The property overall shows significant signs of neglect. Given the price point, this establishment simply fails to deliver acceptable value. I cannot in good conscience recommend this location to other travelers seeking comfortable accommodations.

The property was really good with beautiful surrounding gardens & vineyards. Room wise, while they are very comfortable, many aspects of the room (especially the bathroom area) are very dated & in dire need of a makeover. Bed was comfortable, but very high off the floor. My girlfriend felt she was scared she would fall out of it.

Checked in after hours, the key was easy to collect. I spoke to someone 3 times and no one said there wasn't anything to eat at the property. The restaurant is only opened for breakfast and the Bar Wednesday to Saturday. We have stayed there for many years and loved the property. There were ants in the bathroom. Unfortunately we won't be staying there again unless they improve.
