10/10 Excellent
"What a great place in which to stay in the Hunter Valley! My friends were quick to compliment the size of the rooms while also feeling homely, and I really appreciated the little things like a well stocked pantry of staples and a face towel for each of us (on top of the regular towel). We were only disappointed we were too early in the season to make use of the pool! Was just delightful - probably the best property I have stayed in across all of my Stayz bookings. Thank you for making our relaxing weekend very easy :)"
