An Estate with everything you would desire
It was an amazing experience; we were staying with family for a members wedding at a nearby winery. The staff at check in were very helpful in getting us into the room before 2pm. The bar staff were also friendly and helpful. The breakfast that was included was brilliant, the variety and freshness of the food and beverages was a whole experience in itself. I would highly recommend a stay for a special occasion. Hope to be back soon for the wine tasting.

We saved the pool area from flooding after a hose had been left on overnight. We were able to use facilities though. It would be good to have a big walking track to take instead of using the gym.

Expected better for the price
For the price we paid for one night, I expected a little more in the way of comfort. The hot water continued to go cold then very hot. Stairs down to our room were slippery - I slipped twice. The in room lighting was poor. The complementary wine tasting was Ok but the gentleman running it was rude at times when asked a simple question - I confirmed the name of the wine we were tasting and the tone I received was very poor. Can’t say I will be back to this venue which is disappointing as this was a return stay.
