The property was in an OK situation in general. However, the room needed a proper cleaning, especially under the beds (found dead cockroaches) and the dusty blinds. The pool was dirty on the day we arrived and we intended to swim on a hot day, there was a tissue down the pool.

Despite a satisfactory visit about 12 months ago, we were disappointed with the room this time. There was a feeling of the room being 'run down' and we would not recommend this venue.

Convenient, very safe as management always there. Good parking, beds & linen clean and new. Slept well every night. Close to wine trails. Priced very reasonably. Rooms need new layout as table in king room prevents easy access to great modern wardrobe. In queen room pull out sofa could be replaces with a single bed .

Nice, but small and pricey
Nicely appointed room but a bit small, likewise a tiny bathroom. Very expensive but I guess clawing back lost income from covid. Friendly managers let us have a late checkout Sun morning.

Lovely staff, comfy bed & super value for money. Pub next door was a little bit noisy but we knew it was there when we booked & it was Friday night so it was to be expected & the noise was not unreasonable. Staff were lovely & went over and above lending us simple things we had forgotten to pack.

Conveniently located
Stayed for a couple of nights. The pub next door has an awesome bistro and close to the main street of town. Service is great. Only issue was the pool being closed due to 'Cessnock Council not emailing the covid permit' for it to be open, which was disappointing on such a hot day. Recommended!

Great for overnight
Room was lovely. Bathroom is very small but functional for overnight. Toaster provided with good selection coffee and tea. No plates but mugs, wine glasses, drinking glasses and spoons. Ice in bar fridge. Does look rough on outside with broken sign and furniture piled in corner outside. Would recommend however.
