My second time staying here and its beautiful. The gardens and lawn areas surrounding the hotel are a real delight and the owners are fantastic, they offer a free shuttle in and out of town of a night time for meals which is incredible. The daily continental breakfast supplied in your room is also well received. Such a great experience I highly recommend.

Great location to walk to a few wineries, or base yourself for the tours. Grounds are large with a central BBQ area, but plenty of room not to impose. Short drive to Penola for any essentials.
