Location was excellent, and the room (Deluxe) was very comfortable, particularly the bathroom - both rooms were amazing and spacious
Air conditioner - In cooling mode, the condensator pump was extremely noisy at one stage coming on with a thud about every 5 minutes (a known issue that can occur with that particular make of aircon). We ended up having to switch it off at night - not too bad the second night, however the first night was quite warm. We did report it to reception who appeared to understand what we were saying, so hopefully all fixed now. On Arrival at the room - a 1 litre milk had been placed in the small freezer of the fridge and had frozen, expanded and as such leaking from the cap. Our first 10 minutes was cleaning up leaked milk from the fridge and floor. Not sure whether the milk was supplied or left there from a previous guest.

This resort was very comfortable and had everything we needed to make our stay enjoyable. The rooms were spacious and the beds very comfortable. The breakfast was generous.
The resort looks a bit tired. The sitting area where we could meet with our travel companions did not have a TV. We wanted to watch the footy together. The breakfast area was very cold. It was a pity that our friends could not all be in the same area as us as there were rooms available and we were told the restaurant was closed for a wedding which did not appear to happen while we were there.

Rebecca at Reception was very kind and efficient. We loved the location, the peace and quiet, the view from the pleasant verandah, the kangaroos hopping near the vineyard, the ducks waddling around - even a mother duck with her sweet little ducklings. All together a nice stay. The room was clean and the bed nicely made up. I appreciated the liquid soap, also the hand & body lotion. The comfortable bed, the dressing gowns were a good quality. A separate room for reclining in the evening if that was desired.
1. The very, very low toilet, which was hard to rise from. 2. The tap to the basin was in such a location that you could not put your hands under the tap for washing - the next best thing to do was to run water in the basin, which results in more water being used. 3. Only having one hand towel for a double room. 4. The quality of the bath towels was doubtful. 5. Not enough room for two small suitcases - no designated place for them. One suitcase could be put it on the table, but then the table could not be used. 6.The list of do's and don'ts on the door of our room was off-putting - not hospitable being threatened with extra cost.... 7. The flower arrangement on the table in the separate room needed replacing - the flowers were dead. 8.The outside table was very dusty and wobbly.

Location and overall experience/venue/tent was wonderful. Amazing first glamping experience, the tent and facilities were nicer than most places my partner has stayed before. Breakfast the next day was also great, very tasty.
The bed frame was a little squeaky every time we moved in our sleep and there was only 1 towel hook. Also the noise of the generator/split system unit outside was a little loud/annoying but not enough that it ruined our stay. Would’ve loved if there was an outdoor heater for when you use the tub in the winter.

Stayed in the glamping safari tent. It was absolutely stunning. The claw foot bath on the patio overlooking the vineyard was devine. Outdoors in comfort, what more could you ask for. We booked the 6 course meal paired with wine. It was so delicious, couldnt fault any of it. Waitstaff were amazing and very friendly. Highly recommended both experiences. Free wine tasting and complimentary breakfast each morning from the menu. Just devine!
If had to fault anything was the trek down the path to the tents with luggage.

The restaurant was not going to be oen the night we stayed but,other guests also had asked for an evening meal and we were informed the restaurant would be open.it was beautiful food too. It was lovely not to have to get the car out and go out to another venue for a meal it meant we could relax and enjoy excellent wine with our meal. It was lovely to sit in the lounge area with a warm fire and book and suddenly 15 kangaroos hopped by that was fantastic.
The beds were a little high off the ground.This seems to,be the norm these days.

Booked the twin tent and absolutely loved the set up especially the convenience of having a split system, kettle and fridge. The distance between each tent was great so there was no issues with any unwanted noises and literally felt like we were there only ones there. Bathroom was nice and modern and was only shared with one other tent. Amazing views and staff were lovely.
Only disappointment was the jug of water in the tent which I assumed was the water for the kettle had ants in the jug. Luckily we had bought our own bottles of water that we used for the kettle for a late night cuppa.

Quiet location with lovely staff
The kitchen facilities were quite underwhelming for someone who needs to cook. The 'kitchen' was more like a meeting room kitchenette with a kettle, microwave and a board room table. I would love to eat out, but it is very hard to find a restaurant who can provide gluten free < 20ppm for a coeliac. A BBQ hot plate in the grounds would have been very useful. The bathroom was really lovely but gee it was hard to keep water in the sink with the position of the tap at the edge of the basin (-:

We stayed in a Homestead deluxe room, it was luxurious and spacious and provided us a beautiful night stay with stunning views of the vineyards. In our room we had a bar fridge, kettle, glassware and provisions for tea and coffee. The bathroom was divine with a double head shower and beautiful bath. There is a communal kitchen and sitting room. We would definitely come back and highly recommend a stay here
There wasn’t anything not to love.

The location was stunning. My tent overlooked the vineyard and it was very peaceful. The kangaroos visited at dusk which was lovely. The bed was super comfortable and the mini bar was well stocked. The dressing gown and slippers were a bonus. The shared bathroom was really clean, modern and new, and a very short walk from the tent.
It was just a shame that the restaurant wasn't open, but i was there on a Monday night, so thats probably expected.
