United Kingdom, May 2023

Staying at this hotel was an incredibly luxurious experience. The room had exclusive amenities like a stunning free-standing bathtub, plush carpet, and large windows overlooking the lush greenery of the vineyards. The in-room breakfast and snacks were generous, and the owners' focus on sustainability was impressive, with certified organic wines and a building created from shipping containers. The attention to detail from the staff and the unique experience made for a wonderful weekend getaway.

While everything about the hotel was impressive, the only minor issue was the lack of food options on-site. Guests must drive to nearby Aldinga or McLaren Vale for meals, which may require some planning and consideration.

United Kingdom, December 2022

We had a fantastic weekend away! The scenery was breathtaking, and we loved the complimentary wine tasting. The bed was very comfortable, and the breakfast options were great. The architecture and design of the building added to the unique experience. We also enjoyed the peace and quiet of the location and the option to relax in the bath while looking at the stunning views. They had a fantastic coffee machine that we used a lot, and we appreciated the extra touches such as board games and Netflix.

We found the service to be a little slow, and the hosts were not as welcoming as we had hoped. We also struggled with poor mobile phone reception, which made it difficult to stay in touch with family and friends. Additionally, there were a few issues with the fittings and fixtures in the room that could have been improved. we enjoyed our stay and would consider returning in the future.
