Clean and modern rooms. Beautiful country views. The perfect place to "retreat" to.

What a beautiful little set up which was perfect for us. Room s were clean, modern and well equipped. The breakfast provisions hit the spot and we loved that it allowed us to have a slow morning in the comfort of our own rooms while overlooking the lake. We had a room overlooking the lake and it was spectacular viewing. We only stayed for one night as a little extension of our Hunter Valley getaway but wi

Not much to write about here. We weren't there long enough to find much wrong with the property, but we were happy with everything about our stay. Only thing we didn't like is that we wish we could be there at least one more night.

A beautiful, peaceful getaway with stunning views.

We had such a wonderful stay and would happily come back again. The location is absolutely stunning, with beautiful views over the lake, vineyards, and surrounding mountains. It was so peaceful and relaxing—the perfect place to unwind. We also loved that it was dog-friendly, which made our stay even more special. The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The shower was fantastic, and the kitchenette was well equipped for a romantic weekend away.

Honestly, there wasn’t much we could fault. Everything was exactly as described, and the property was well maintained and very comfortable. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxing getaway in the Hunter Valley.

We appreciated the contactless service, and super user friendly information about the sounding areas. The beautiful curated section of breakfast food and snacks available were also amazing.
