Perfection

A beautiful property that suited our needs perfectly for a 3 night stay. Loved that each bedroom had its own bathroom and both with baths. King size beds were pure luxury. Outdoor spa was enjoyed by all. Kitchen and BBQ also great. Indoor fireplace was lively also. The perfect property for two couples.

Weekend trip with friends

Communication with property manager wasn’t great, it is a late check in and they were late giving the codes to the property as well. Spa was a bit grotty, could definitely use a good clean. House was nice but a bit dirty, bathrooms especially. Very impractical and uncomfortable dining chairs so we had to eat outside which one of the nights wasn’t ideal. Great location however, close to the main roads and popular wineries. Very quiet and serene house. Check out was 10am which seems odd given the late check in.
