The cottage is clean and have a positive atmosphere. Surrounding nature makes the place very relaxing. We loved the fire place. Carport next to the cottage was so helpful. The direction of getting to the cottage was a bit confusing. One of the reasons we booked this cottage was having a spa but we couldn't use the Spa as it was so cold and by the time it got to the right temperature it was bed time. We were disappointed as we expected a ready to use spa like other places.

Quiet location, well set up kitchen/bathroom, bedrooms, porch on three sides and Hot tub with a view (bit noisy in the night, we had to turn it off) Parking right next to cottage under carport, when we arrived the table was set and a lovely bottle of wine was waiting. Kitchen also has coffeemaker, teabags etc, dishwasher and washing machine come with some tablets, plenty of towels and pillows, sofa pulls out (great for relaxing) BBQ and fire place available but not to be used in bush fire season. The winery and brewery are unfortunately closed, and the cafe is only open friday to sunday, and then only sells pizza so that was a bit disappointing. Good base to visit the twelve apostles via the gourmet route (we loved Timboon distillery and blueberry picking)

Just a few issues with communication
The stay itself was lovely though the manager told me that the brewery nearby was open but not for meals however the brewery has been completely closed for sometime. Also I was told that I could pay the remainder on arrival but the remainder was taken out of my bank without me knowing the week before. Also the day before I emailed a few questions and left a few messages on the managers phone and had no response at all. Also there was no wifi or phone connection at the property whilst the brewery was not in operation. (apparently you can get wifi at the brewery and you can ask a staff member for the password ) Also we got a list of instructions of how to leave the property emailed to me on the evening of our stay which of course I couldn’t access until I had left the property and was within range again.

First getaway since COVID restrictions were lifted. Went with friends and what more can I say but thank you. Was one of the most peaceful stays we have ever had. I would stay here again in a heart beat just so I can see the rest of the winery next time. Clean and inviting with great communication.

Beautiful wine country
3 week road trip along the coast from Melbourne to Sydney and this was our first stop. Beautiful location, private along with wildlife right outside. Enjoyed the brewery and the Italian pizzas.
