Wonderfully peaceful and newly updated
Pros:

Lovely updated facilities and room. Good to see some accommodation in the Hunter Valley brought into the 21st century.

Cons:

Despite being separate businesses, perhaps would have like to have seen a greater discount on golf given that Crazy Golf Deals are actually cheaper than the Peppers Diacount.

A beautiful apartment in a wonderful location, which just needed a little bit more TLC in the cleaning department!
Pros:

The property was in a great location and very comfortable, easy access to the wineries.

Cons:

The ensuite bathroom in the 2 bedroom apartment hadn’t been cleaned properly and had multiple hairs in the bath. I informed reception and was told that housekeeping would be there in the morning, unfortunately this did not happen. There were also lots of sticky handprints on the doors and walls. Some electrical sockets in the bedroom didn’t work either and the light over the kitchen table was constantly flickering. Very disappointing for such a lovely apartment.

I’ll don’t think I would ever visit here again.
Pros:

Good location, good interior

Cons:

Spider web was in our room, and toilet didn’t have fan to clean the air.
Plus, we only had two water bottles in this property and the rest we bought somewhere else before we arrived property, however they charged us on more bottle.
