What a superb place this is. From customer friendly staff throughout to the smallest details. Everything is carefully thought about, delivered to the highways standards, mindful of the environmental impact each service may have. Sustainable, tasty food, recycled products, nothing wasted without compromise on quality of product or service. We highly recommend Gibbston Valley. 10/10 all round.

Nice resort with a good restaurant. Lovely villa. We appreciated the wine tasting that was included in the stay. However, it was very expensive compared to other accommodations and doesn’t quite live up to the price. Breakfast should have been included considering the cost.

A well-earned treat after a day of sightseeing.

My daughter and I had a wonderful stay, totally relaxing and serene. It was convenient walking over to the wine tasting and popping into the Cheesery and deli shop. The location was perfect for exploring the region and even better for returning to unwind in the evening. We enjoyed cozying up by the fire chatting and relaxing in our spacious room.
