This was a great place for us to stay for a few nights to get away from the hustle and bustle. It was very relaxing and nice that there were not too many places jammed onto the property. We would definitely recommend and return.

This was our second stay at Woodlane cottages and it was perfect for our girls weekend away. The cottage is well stocked, always clean and neat and Kirsty is a pleasure to deal with. Can’t wait to return again next year.

Quiet but central

It was a lovely quiet place to stay. Was well located so close to do what ever you needed to in the Valley. With the rain the road in could get a bit challenging as it is largely unmade, however, we managed fine in VW Golf. We enjoyed our stay and would use it again.

A very tiny kitchen that had as described, but we didn't use it for cooking but did use the BBQ. There was a very old A/C in loungeroom that didn't cope with the heat, we arrived in. (Bedroom had a new A/C.) The pool was nice to cool down in. In shower nowhere to place soap or shampoo etc, other than floor. Rooms setup as seen in photos but older than we expected. TV only had reception for a couple of hours then went to no signal. Flyscreen doors don't fully cover doorways. Their dogs did come up and bark at us while we were sitting outside. Location (situated on a well-graded gravel road) was good for what we wanted to do.

Family weekend COVID safe getaway

The cottage was ideal for our family of 6 adults and two children aged 5 and 11/2 for a long weekend. Two adults had a wedding to attend nearby so the location was very convenient. The cottage is well equipped with everything we needed and very private and safe. We enjoyed the BBQ and pool and air conditioning was welcome particularly upstairs. This cottage is close to the main vineyards attractions but remote enough to give a lovely country experience.

Remote but not

We stayed in the Fantail Villa and found the cottage to be clean and spacious for two people. Woodlane Cottages are close by to Ernest Hill with the visitor centre about 5 mins drive from our accommodation. We found the bed to be a little too firm and I was surprised by the size of the bathroom. It was very large and made for people in wheelchairs. A beautiful location. Would stay again and would recommend.
