Wine down getaway

Very pleasant place and not far from regional attractions. Peaceful and relaxing retreat. Note: one of the bedrooms was not private. Walk along path at back of property was nice bonus. Host was very lovely to deal with.

Good location, near Sandbanks and wineries. No tv, no wifi, if you look for enternainment, it's probably not the good place for you. Comfort is average. Home appliances, beds, couch... Everything is outdated, but founctional. Host is very nice. I would recommend this place for short stay.

Peaceful bliss

Lia was the perfect host, greeting us, outlining how our VRBO worked and responded to all requests professionally. Quiet, clean, good beds, linens, towels, etc. Fridge a bit small so we brought coolers. Not on the main drag, so we enjoyed the Bird sanctuary, Pt Petre for hikes, birding and daily swims. We were hoping for more from Picton and Wellington, but loved our refuge with Lia and tasting their wine. A delight

It was a beautiful, quiet place to stay right on the family's winery. Close to many wineries and breweries (5-20 mins drive to many places), but not really walkable- in the country. There was a fire pit and "water park" listed, but there is no water park/water games or fire pit, although the family did bring over their own fire pit for us. There was stove but it was not ready to use/near a plug - there was a hot plate and toaster oven. The fridge is very small, some things we could fit in that we brought. It really was a great place- old cheesemakers house, cute, quiet and nice relaxing views, but some of the amenities could have been more clear/temp not working etc. Thanks for a great stay!

Charmant!

Charmante maison avec des propriétaires tout aussi charmants! Parfait pour notre petit week-ends entre amis. Un petit peu plus en campagne que ce que nous pensions, mais un bel endroit pour se reposer.

Super séjour, hôtesse très accueillante!

Nous avons passé un merveilleux séjour chez Lia. Elle a été présente du début à la fin et vraiment très avenante, elle a été tellement gentille, merci pour tout! Nous avons pu goûté de bons vins et profiter de l'extérieur à notre guise. Plusieurs plages à proximité, je vous recommande!

Nous allons nous en ennuyer

Endroit très tranquille, nous avons profité du site enchanteur et de la vue sur le vignoble. Excellent vin aussi. L’hôte est très gentille et accueillante. Mes enfants s’y sont sentis très bien aussitôt. L’endroit est isolé, offrant un ciel étoilé grandiose. 20 minutes de Sand Banks. Je recommande fortement.
