If you want a quite get away with family and friends this property is it! Simply beautiful location set back in the foot hills of a superb winery. So serene and picturesque location with amazing sunsets, escarpment views, wrapped up with magic Australiana flora and fauna to be experienced.
Our stay was a wintery weekend away from Sydney and host Michele ensured we had plenty of fire wood for both the indoor open fire and out doors fire on the veranda.
The kitchen is very well appointed, with heaps of bench space and room to prepare meals for our group of 14. The three bathrooms which were also well appointed, made for very little waiting for showers or a toilets.
Bedrooms are airconditioned and away from the central hub, except the master which sit on a mezzanine floor above the kitchen, being loft style huge bedroom overlooking the dinning room and lounge. Coming to the property the first time, Mio Monte can be a little tricky to enter as you drive in via a side road to the back of the property, separate from the main winery entrance. At the assigned address drive up the lane way to the end, before turning right to come to the back of the property, where you will find plenty of parking for guests.
Mio Monte is spacious with out being pretentious. Bedding and linen are first class with ample towels provided for everyone. Two large fridges and pantry made it easy to store all out food and wines for the 5 day stay. The property is good value for the nightly rate, making it very affordable for a larger group to stay together. It is located a good 20 mins from Pokolbin village but only a few minutes from Broke general store and bottle shop.
We would definitely stay here again, next time for a summer get away to maximise the pool and tennis court on site.
Michele and her staff made us feel so welcome. Everyone was so very accommodating and lovely.
Thanks again for making us feel so welcome.
