Wonderful

We had an awesome time relaxing sampling the local wines and eating a some great restaurants. The house had everything.
It would have been even more special to have a welcome basket on arrival ie. small milk, local bread etc
Thank you

Disappointed
Properly inside was tired and a lot smaller than we thought. Not a luxury stay at all. We left early.
Great location, close to the markets and the wineries. Lovely views, so peaceful. We had a great girls weekend away.
