    The bathroom was tired with the grout in the tiles needing replacing. The cupboard in the bathroom smelt musty and there was a bit of mould.

    Staff were lovely. The decor is amazing. Beautiful location where they film farmer wants a wife Australia.

    We stayed in a Garden Suite and had an amazing night. The suite felt like our own private cottage. The decor is stunning, the bathroom is immaculate with an amazing bathtub. We sat on the porch in the morning, watching the bunnies hop near the pool/tennis court while we had our morning coffees. Should have booked an extra night, we didn’t want to leave.

    Excellent Stay at a Favorite

    The rooms are pricey are due for an upgrade. The breakfast & wine/cheese trays available to guests are the only food options at the hotel so if you need food after hours you'll have to order in or leave the property. Additionally, phone/cell service can be spotty at best here and the WiFi isn't the greatest.

    Breakfast at the hotel offers a somewhat limited (but satisfying!) selection of options with the staff going above and beyond to ensure we had exactly what we wanted. Room sizes are large and well furnished (if a bit dated). The grounds are absolutely beautiful. The restaurant and winery on the property are excellent.

    Couldn't seriously fault the property.

    The entire property was beautifully maintained and added to the vibe of the whole area. Our room was fabulous and we were lucky enough as it was also the last one available. The staff were engaging and helped us with seeing a few venues at short notice. The food and wine selection at Circa 1876 was absolutely devine! As was breakfast.

    Whilst the property was lovely it felt a bit pricy for just one night. I’d love to stay there for longer but wouldn’t be able to afford it at the price I paid.

    Beautiful property and grounds with helpful staff, comfortable rooms and lovely breakfast! I can’t recommend this highly enough.

    Bathroom was very basic with shower over the bath so you have to step over and into the bath to take a shower. Would be nice if the hotel had an actual bar where you can get a drink rather than a couple of lounges in the reception area.

    Great location, beautiful intimate hotel, good size rooms.

    If I had to nitpick, the shower head kept lowering, wouldn't stay in place. It also would have been good if I could have checked in early so I wasn't rushing.

    The room was lovely, the bed comfy, the coffee at breakfast was really nice. The man who served my breakfast was also very polite and friendly.

    Carpark needs attention and the broken wedding marquee needs to be removed.
