Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Service was excellent at check in. Surroundings of the resort was restful - with lots of birds settling in for the night. Rooms are tired - bedsheets were generally clean and pressed. Room was spacious. WiFi was way too slow to stream Netflix. However, there were many areas which made our stay far from ideal. First, there were a vast number of bugs and we had living in the lights and in the toilet. In the morning there were bugs all over the toilet floor. We had a worm crawl out from the side of the sink in the morning. If not for the insects, the accommodation would’ve have been acceptable. We stayed 1 night and headed out first thing in the morning.

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.

I stayed for 2 nights to enjoy some peace and quiet. I loved the beautiful trees and bushes around the property, in particular the pond with the fountain. The bird chatter added to the serenity and feeling of being disconnected from city life. I loved the pool- swimming is one of my favourite ways to relax. The parking was convenient and the room was very comfortable. I had everything I needed for my visit.. The staff gave a cordial welcome. The voucher for a wine tasting next door at the cellar was lovely too where staff were friendly and helpful. A thoroughly enjoyable stay.

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.
