We’re happy to share our tips for enjoying this beautiful location. You’re welcome to walk and enjoy the property. As this is a working vineyard, noisy activities such as spraying may be undertaken at times. Guest access Parking space down driveway in front of our garage to the far right (when looking at the garage door) - look out for the "Barrique Parking" sign. Feel free to walk around our property including the vineyard. While it’s a journey worth taking, there is 4km of gravel road to reach us. It adds to the charm of our remote location, but if you’re not comfortable with driving your vehicle on gravel, this may not be the right accommodation for you. Other things to note Guests can arrange sauna sessions by messaging us - robes are also provided for that extra touch of luxury! Things to note if you've booked in with your pooch: - Must be house-trained - No pets on furniture/beds - Please bring your pet's blankets and their pet bed (and crate if using) - Our friendly golden retriever (Daisy) will come and say hello to your dog - she may visit your room multiple times! We know that you’re here to embrace the magic of a more isolated escape. So, while our family (including our lovely natured golden retriever dog) live in the main house in front of your accommodation, we ensure you have the space to enjoy this peaceful location with privacy. However, if you need anything (or any advice on what to do in the region), we’re here to help.
