A lovely little place to stay, not fancy in terms of rooms and facilities, but a nice area and close to local wineries and restaurants without the crazy price tag of some other places.

Property is in a gorgeous location with many options nearby, a few to walk to more to drive under 5 minutes to. Our rate included a light breakfast but it was very rudimentary. Hunter Valley is expensive and I felt this rate could be accepted more readily with access to Internet TV and a broader range of breakfast option - eg not just weetbix! There was only glass recycling options.

Thank you for taking the time to review, our light breakfast also includes peaches, orange juice, milk tea and coffee also either banana bread of bread for toasting with butter jams etc. We have modified our range due to the Covid 19 to make sure everything is fresh and packaged correctly.

The shower required a mop which was provided but broken and so the open plan bathroom was wet and felt unsafe. The back door had a few cm gap that allowed bugs inside even when the lights were off so it was difficult to sleep with mozzies etc, especially for our infant. The morning breakfast was lovely and the staff friendly. Great location for a morning walk.
