Loved our stay at the lane retreat. Staff were lovely. Atmosphere was great. However would not get the romance package again $85 for a $25 bottle of wine and some rose petals didnt seem worth the price. Next time will just go with the room. The room was clean and loved the bathroom! Would definitely be back.

Very nice quiet and private location. Beautiful view from accommodation. Good facilities- huge bathroom, very comfortable bed. Lovely continental breakfast. Convenient location to all wineries in Hunter area. No downside and just shared a couple of small improvements with manager. Really enjoyable stay - will definitely come again.

The adorable studio rooms which looked directly to the Broken Back range was unforgettable, as we arrived at sunset and were fortunate to take in the serene panoramic views of the ranges. The accommodation was pristine clean and very comfortable, and the complimentary continental breakfast was of higher quality and was the perfect way to end our stay. I would stay at property again.

Loved our stay here! It’s quite cozy but perfect for a romantic getaway. The room and facilities were super nice. I also really liked the check out time of 11am. The only criticism I had was that check in isn’t until 3pm and they didn’t let us know after that time which room was ours and the pin. Other than that I would say it was perfect
