No reception queues for check in or out, all electronic. Quiet location, no children, warm pool and lovely sunset! Believed it part of Bimbadgen estate. On arrival the wine glasses were unclean, but one phone call and they were replaced and we were given a bottle of the local sparkling as an apology. The pantry shop had run out of crackers too! Down side; Bus arranged to attend A Day on the Green, when we had booked accommodation to be close to venue, were told we couldn’t walk.(3km) Less than 5min bus trip to get there, but over an hour return trip!! Very disappointing ending to a wonderful Day on the Green.

One of the best properties I've stayed at in the Hunter Valley. Lovely calming outlook with nature surrounds. The sound proof between villas is so good you can't hear anything. It is really hot though in summer and the air con is too cold and directional. The bed and bathroom is amazing. The breakfast is generous, and the wine is incredible!

The staff and house keeping were a amazing although the final touches in the room itself really let it down mainly the exhaust fan in the bathroom covered in dirty hand prints and pencil marks from a rushed installation perhaps? Not what you want to be staring at after a long day of wine tasting.
