Our family had an unforgettable stay with great memories we will cherish for years to come.

10.0

Fantastic fine dining food – incredibly filling, beautifully presented, and the freshly baked bread was an absolute highlight. An amazing, luxurious, and truly world-class stay. This is without doubt one of our favourite destinations, and that is saying something given we have stayed in numerous five-star properties around the world. The attention to detail, exceptional service, and overall experience were second to none. The whole family (especially the kids) look forward to returning.

Absolutely stunning property! The concierge helped us plan activities that were incredible! HIGHLY recommend the Koala experience, the Ultimate Penfold's Experience, and the RM Williams Experience (was unexpectedly AWESOME!!). Food was outstanding and the staff was super friendly. Wine selection was exceptional as well.

Private golf course and king of the manor.

10.0

As it turned out we were the only guests in the hotel during our stay so there was only the chef preparing our meals (included) and no other service was available. There was an intial hiccup with our TV and lack of hot water so we had to change rooms but playing a round on the Kinloch Golf course is well worth the trouble.
