Totally understand the glamping appeal - being off grid but with comfy beds. Not practical to stay in unless the weather
Pros:

Great location and vineyard surrounds were beautiful. Airconditioner worked well, beds were surprisingly comfortable and acess to the property was easy.

Cons:

The layout of the cabin was really awkward - should be for a couple max. Dangerous big step off single bed and double bed had ricketty ladder access only. No mirror & really hard to use the fridge with ladder. No where to put luggage at all - is very small. Not easy for a tall person to navigate

Great stay in basic Cabn
Pros:

Great location, pristine relaxation in the trees and vineyard. All basics supplied.

Cons:

Limited view from rooms out to view of surrounds. More wall space than other options. Description on booking seemed generic across all options. Price was high.

Beatiful loliness but with a better cleanliness
Pros:

Tranquillity and pace of the place

Cons:

Unfortunately we discovered that a lot of powder dust was inside the cabn. I recommend a better clean especially for people like me allergic.

Perfect location and lots to love, but my knees are still a bit sore though 🤣
Pros:

Location, peaceful and beautiful

Cons:

Love the idea of the CABNs but crawling to go to bed was probably not a good idea for me.

Pros:

Right in front of the vineyard with privacy between cabins. Fire pit isn't for bonfire but find yourself a branch near the trees to enjoy cooking marshmallows while you see the stars. Won't see sunrise but Sunset was spectacular! Simple cooking only and bathroom light didn't work but overall fantastic getaway spot. 10min drive to servo, restaurants and Cole's.

Pros:

The location and good experience with the stay in cabin.

Cons:

Although the cabin seems to be cleaned, but it’s very dusty. For anyone with sensitive noses, like me and my friends, it’s very hard for us.
