Excellent Stay
Pros:

We popped over to wine country for a night away and booked at Margrain Vineyard. Really great place, the rooms are in little chalets that have a magic outlook from the private balconies. It was immaculately clean, roomy and had everything that we needed. We were also greeted by a delightful receptionist who was a wealth of information regarding the area - big plus was her little doggy helper. Location was great, close to everything. I would stay again.

Pros:

We liked the location. Loved being in the vines
Wine was lovely.
The staff were very helpful and friendly.
We enjoyed the wine tasting.
Lovely breakfast each morning.

Cons:

The room was ok but maybe under the bed could do with a clean as dust and dirt obviously there. Maybe a complete floor wash.
The wifi kept cutting out.
I felt the garden and lawns needed a tidy up to make sitting out under the trees more appealing.

Pros:

The patio was great, spacious room, loved the continental breakfast, such a good variety. Nice and tidy. Staff lovely and helpful.

Cons:

There was no fan in the bathroom, and if the window was open in the evening lots of mosquitoes. When the shower was on, it went out onto the bathroom floor so I used a lot of the towels to stop it from going too far. As my partner can slip easily
