Quiet and picturesque
The farm surrounding is picturesque and we loved the cabin. What a nice touch to have a gift for the children too! The hospitality was excellent, I highly recommend this if you are looking for some peace and tranquility.

If you like nature, mountains, valleys, trees,cows and vineyards where they make great wines, this is the place you want to stay in, The service is almost second to none. Lee, JJ,the chief, Meninda and her husband ,Martin and the rest of the estate staff made our stay memorable, we decided to extend our stay few more days. May be a TV and Wifi in room will make it even more enjoyable. Thank you everyone.

The setting of this Estate is magnificent, and the individual apartments are imaginatively designed, and presented in terrific order. A considerable amount of thought has gone into the design, and to the small touches and attention to detail that make a stay here memorable. Add to that a meal in the barn of their own Wagyu beef and estate wine, and this becomes a place that you wouldn't want to leave .... we didn't want to! Breakfast didn't disappoint either - amazing!

Lovely Estate near Cango Caves
I booked last minute and arrived within 90 minutes in the early evening. The amazing staff (Travis) greeted me as I drove up, had already prepared my room, chilled a complimentary bottle of the Estate's wine, and left a small "Welcome Marc" sign in the room. I was really impressed! I stayed in a Mountain Villa that had a large comfortable bed, living room, indoor and outdoor showers, and a plunge pool. Great restaurant and delicious breakfast. I wish I could have stayed longer than 1 night.

Breathtaking views - Idyllic Stay
I cannot write enough good things about this place - the cottage was absolutely adorable, sparkling clean, with such attention to detail (a French press with ground coffee!!! Fresh baked cookies, Every kitchen utensil you could need) and the most amazing views. We were treated to grass fed steaks from the working farm (which we cooked ourselves on the bbq provided on our cute deck) and the most amazing vegetables from the garden cooked to perfection. Breakfast the next morning in the renovated barn was equally delicious and so generous. Everything was made that much better by the sweet and friendly attention of Suzanna. Nothing was too much of an ask for her. I can't recommend this place enough.

Beautiful stay, friendly staff, diner at restaurant was fantastic. Nice touch with welcoming us with a bottle of their own estate wine. Only comment, the pool at the villa looked dirty hence we didnt went for a swim.

Die Zimmer sind sehr stilvoll eingerichtet. Spezielles Badezimmer mit Aussenbadewanne und zusätzlicher Aussendusche. Kleines Tauchbecken zur Aleinbenützung, kann sogar aufgeheizt werden. Küchenzeile mit dem Nötigsten eingerichtet. Cheminee für kühle Abende und gemütlicher Sitzecke. Wir waren 2 Nächte da. Einfach herrlich. Das Frühstück sehr liebevoll hergerichtet und zum Abendessen besteht die Möglichkeit im hauseigenen Restaurant zu Essen (Fleischlastig, da eigene Farm) Ein sehr schöner Flecken!
