The propery is stunning with views across the vineyards and treed forests. It was a luxuriously relaxing stay beginning with a cuppa while watching the resident wildlife.The accommodation is excellent. Spacious rooms with modern country comfort. Restuarant served great food, coffee & wine. The local pub is also a great dinner option.

Enjoyable stay in modern room
We enjoyed one night in a Queen Room in the homestead The room was refurbished, modern and clean with good amenities. There is a modern, well equipped communal kitchen and lounge area for the guests in the 9 rooms. The homestead is a short walk away from the main building.

The receptionist was lovely. The wine tasting was generous but we did feel like we were being rushed. The dinner onsite was delicious. I would come again.

Do you have a potential sound warning in cold conditions for the fans in frosty nights? The air conditioner/hears was louder than the fans outside. And no spoons in my tent/room. loved the experience overall

Great accomodation, very smart and modern with beautiful views. The only issues were the bed was very hard and this is a preference I know but it was so hard it was like sleeping on the ground. Staff were great friendly and helpful but we dined in the restaurant at night and they were booked out. The staff did a great job but they were so busy no one asked us if we wanted more drinks and so we only had one drink. They also seemed to forget our dessert and we waited for ages to be served. But they are minor issues the venue is beautiful.

The view over the vineyards was idyllic. The dining and wine was excellent and everyone their made an effort to make our short stay memorable. The only suggestion I could make is to remove the pillar in the window at Reception so Sonia has a better view of the vineyards and glamping guests can see the path to their accomodation.

Whilst my stay was wonderful, it was disappointing to arrive at Checkin time for 2pm to find out the kitchen was closed and could not get any food with our wine. We yet had wine tasting to do at 4.30pm with still no food and waited to eat for our dinner sitting for 6.30pm. Perhaps the kitchen could prove some options during the afternoon for guest to enjoy a cheese board or something.
