The items I did not like was that the bath exhaust fan was blocked, the bath faucet leaked when filling up the bath. There was no mop sponge on the mop to mop the floor. The door lock was loose making it difficult to unlock. There was a huge cobweb in the lounge above the TV which I cleaned and the non stick saucepan the non stick coating was damaged and the pan looked burnt, not healthy as the damaged coating is not good for you. Other then those minor issues I would be happy to return. ##### Tony Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 10 Oct 2018 Disliked: Cleanliness, room comfort Location is fantastic, set among beautiful gum trees and full of native bird life. It was peaceful.. that was until the neighboring cabin's guests arrived and it was apparent there was no soundproofing between the shared wall between the 2 cabins - We felt rude being able to hear the couples full conversations. For what was spent a night, I feel there were some things lacking in comparison to other vineyard accommodation I had stayed in. The Cabin had no oil for the BBQ or fry pan, salt and pepper shakers were practically empty, no sugar to go with supplied coffee and tea. Luckily there was a supermarket in the next town. Just lacking a bit of TLC and some homely touches that would make it stand out, in an age where side hustle accommodation is more and more common. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Jackie 9 Sept 2018 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort Easy to find, lovely location. Owner friendly and approachable on phone. Accommodation quite basic. Didn’t look like it had been properly dusted/wiped for a while. No spare blankets ##### Jackie Stayed 1 night in Aug 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### 808TATW 8 Nov 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Could be great Location is great, very secluded and part of a working winery. The two units have a lot going for them and this could be a really awesome retreat. But there's a lot of TLC missing. The first impression as you walk in, screen door is ripped, lock hard to turn, bed covers with big white stains, millipedes and spiders all over the place, some blinds don't open, every page of the "welcome" book ripped. Knobs on BBQ don't eturn, no trash bags, not enough toilet paper, etc etc. Just seems like the owners don't care. Real bummer. ##### 808TATW Stayed 3 nights in Oct 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 13 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Peaceful surrounding the owners were very friendly and welcoming. We would come back again ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Shane, Adelaide sa 10 Oct 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort Lovely views nice and quiet But. The fry pan needs to be replaced BBQ was not nice It was great two days away from the city and our lunch platter at the cellar door was exelent ##### Shane Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2017 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 22 Jul 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service #### Nice cottage in quiet location Lovely place. Outside hints at a spectacular view and would benefit from a few trees and bushes being thinned out. Inside is nice. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jul 2017 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Evdokia 4 Dec 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Secluded and Romantic We relaxed and enjoyed the antipasto platter with a Shiraz from the estate. The farm fresh eggs provided with the breakfast provisions were enormous. The crusty bread was also delicious. Next time we intend to also use the BBQ on the veranda or perhaps cook a roast in the oven. I also enjoyed the wine tasting on the property and the natural bush surroundings. ##### Evdokia ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 30 Oct 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great wines, great view and short walk to cabin An understated discovery that delighted my wife and I. Recommend for a quiet getaway weekend or for travelers a great location that showcases some of the best South Australia's wine, food and scenery. ##### Verified traveller ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 25 Aug 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Great location in the bush.
