The location of this hotel is truly spectacular, nestled amidst the vineyards with stunning views. I enjoyed peaceful nights and fantastic views of kangaroos in the morning. However, the dining experience was not what I expected, with limited options and some inconveniences during my stay. While the hotel provided clean rooms and basic amenities, extensive maintenance is needed, particularly with the plumbing. Overall, I found it to be a valuable stay, but it does have its hiccups.
