My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our one-night stay at The Lane Retreat. Check-in was seamless, and we appreciated receiving the access code 30 minutes before check-in time. The place was immaculate..neat, tidy, and incredibly modern yet cosy. It was such a relaxing experience, and the highlight for us was the close encounter with kangaroos right next to our door. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a peaceful and unique getaway!

Absolutely loved our stay here! My partner and I stayed here for our mini honey moon for a week, it was comfortable and just what we needed. We had a beautiful view that seemed like something from the movies, we enjoyed the pool and the continental breakfast! The only slight mishap was that on one of the cards welcoming and congratulating us it had the wrong names but nonetheless we were greatful - other than that the only other feedback is for people staying more long term it could be beneficial for guests to have maybe a small dustpan to sweep the floors over the days as it did accumulate. Room services were amazing and staff very responsive.

Room, fantastic, bathroom, amazing. Such a nicely decorated place. Continental breakfast is a nice touch. Pool facility is really nice too. We arrived for our wine tasting after a long drive & it was a case of figuring everything out for yourself. There wasn’t really any signs apart from the cafe, we had to return back to the cafe to ask for our driver to take us. It just wasn’t very prompt. The lady at the reception of the winery was so rude, really disappointing to recieve a face & attitude when only asking for directions. We weren’t told the restaurant only serves dinner on Friday/saturdays. The pizza was overpriced, and you had to serve it to the table yourself. Amazing stay, service let it down
