We had a wonderful stay here. The house was very comfortable for our large group. We enjoyed cooking at home with the well stocked kitchen. The pool was a nice temperature. Kangaroos in the yard were charming. We had a great time by the fire pit too. Adams Leap wine at the end of the road was one of our favorite wineries. We would definitely look to stay here again in the future!
A wonderful and serene property. The kids especially loved the pool and the kangaroos. A beautiful morning and sunset view from the back of the house looking onto the mountain range. The house was clean and comfortable. Rachael & James are both beautiful & friendly hosts. We definitely would love to come back again.
Beautiful house, fantastic stay, the photos don’t do it justice!
Stayed for a girls weekend away, and were so impressed with beautiful local wine on arrival, clean, comfortable and beautifully decorated bedrooms. The living areas were spacious enough for 11 adults, and we enjoyed afternoon drinks on the front balcony soaking in the views. Easy and friendly communication with the owner, who gave great tips on where to visit. The house is in the perfect location close to wineries, and restaurants. Definitely recommend this stay to others and we will be back again.
We were so delighted with our experience staying at Hermitage Hideaway. The house and the property itself is stunning and the location is perfect. The hosts were very accommodating and provided many nice touches to make our stay more comfortable. I couldn’t recommend this accommodation enough and am already looking for an excuse to come back!
We had a lovely stay. James & Rachael were consummate hosts and were available for any enquiries we had. The house was the perfect size for 7 adults and 3 children with different spaces both indoors and out for everyone. The location is great, private but still close to shops and obviously several wineries. In the summer you share the pool with the Cottage but this was great for us and we got to meet some new people. The Cottage is about 150 metres away from the Homestead. All in all, it was the break that we needed and we will come again.

Great stay
“We arrived to a bottle of wine from my favourite winery (which Rachael and James so kindly remembered!) and it only got better from there! The space is incredible, the beds were comfortable, the kitchen was stocked and it was so close to everything! I will definitely be staying at Hermitage Hideaway again!” Brent

Wonderful stay in a beautiful house and location
We stayed in the hermitage hideaway for 2 nights. The house is absolutely lovely ! It was extremely clean and had lots of space ! It’s light and airy as well as homely, There were 10 adults and 4 infants and we had plenty of room. There are beautiful views from the house as well as a bbq area which we used. The house has a lovely big dining room which we were able to enjoy our meals in. We did a wine tour and really couldn’t complain about where the house was located it was nearby to lots of wineries. All communications with Rachael were straight forward and she was very helpful and accommodating with any questions I had. I would certainly recommend this property and we hope to come back and stay again. Thanks Rachael
