Independent in Applethorpe from AU$135

"Great little cottage! Kitchen is equipped with everything you need. Milk, tea, coffee and hot chocolate provided. The sarenity was amazing. Great proximity to the wineries."

"We spent a lovely 3 nights at Ridgemill Estate using it as a base to explore the wider Granite Belt. The staff are genuinely welcoming and Kate was a wonderful host taking us through the extensive wine tasting with plenty of cheerful banter and local stories. Our cabin was modern and well appointed with everything provided for an enjoyable stay. The beautiful country views were enhanced by the charming farm animals like Ninja the cat and the flock of friendly goats always up to be hand fed. Stanthorpe township is only 10 minutes away and there is a fantastic craft brewery just around the corner. Overall, a wonderful place to spend a few days."

"Lovely little motor inn. Should try the Steakhouse next time. Thanks guys"

"Lovely clean property, close to town. "

"Very comfortable clean hotel all the amenities you need a great location too just a short walk to town "

"Excellent. Great place very homely"

"Lovely little cottage and very comfortable beds. Only 1 bedroom so would suit younger family unless you don’t mind sharing the space. Great base location as close to everything. We didn’t cook but had everything if you wanted to be self contained. Also great selection of games, books and DVD. No wifi so plan ahead with downloads if kids want to use iPads. Good opportunity to go device free."

"A beautifully located home with smoke space and comfortable gathering places got all ages. Comfortably warm on a winters weekend. At the foothills of Mount Marlay and walking distance to town...yet felt like we were isolated from others as it was such a quiet neighbourhood. Thoughtfully renovated and will be beautiful when kitchen gets a freshen up.We enjoyed the games room, speakers thoughtfully placed for music and the ambience that night time brought with a backyard fire pit. The host was excellent at responding and staying in touch."

"From the moment we opened the door to be greeted by peaceful music playing, fresh oil diffuser going and as it was our 28th wedding anniversary on the table were chocolates and light up numbers 28, an extra special touch to an allready amazing entrance. It was the most perfect long weekend away. We drove very short distances to lovely bush walks daily, then got to come home and soak in the spectacular tub drinking wine, while watching the wildlife right outside our window. "
