"Another enjoyable and relaxing visit."

8.0

We have stayed here before and knew what to expect. The property is in a secluded location and not near any shops or restaurants but generous provisions are supplied including hearty continental breakfast supplies, wine, cheese & biscuits. The decor is very pleasant and comfortable.

This time only there was no hairdryer provided and no tea towels unlike previous visits. Not the end of the world but things one would expect.

"Was very pleasant and would be lovely in summer."

8.0

Was fine. Thankyou.

Not warm when we got there and took quite awhile to heat up. Worried regards seeing a hole in one of the bedroom windows. No lounge to really sit on for four of us.

"Beautiful and clean rooms in a peaceful winery"

9.0

Self check-in so we did not encounter any staff members, but instructions were emailed to us and super clear. Beautiful location and even more beautiful accomodations -- we stayed at the 2 bedroom Riesling Room, and it was so clean and very modern. One of the nicest places we stayed in NZ. Bathrooms were pristine. A nice spread of self serve breakfast items, cheese, and wine were also upon arrival. Small kitchenette was thoughtfully well equipped. Even though NZ has a ton of sandflies and mosquitos, it felt like this place had none! Super comfortable, spacious, and modern. Bedding and sheets were top notch. Bathtub in the 2 bedroom option was sublime. Highly recommend.

Soundproofing wasn't the best, we could kind of hear other occupants -- nobody was noisy except us, we have a toddler (sorry!). We slept incredibly well. Not a ton of immediate food or restaurant options nearby (10-15 minutes to great options in Amberley), but that's expected of a beautiful peaceful getaway location.
