Great for an overnight stay
Pros:

Location near cellar door was ideal. The grounds, including the gardens, were excellent. Staff were very friendly and helpful.

Cons:

The room was very well designed and appointed. It was a repurposed shipping container and a little small for a long stay.

Pros:

What an absolute little gem!

We spent three nights at Dal Zotto in the beautiful King Valley, and from the moment we arrived, we knew we were somewhere special.

The tiny home was warm and cosy when we walked through the door, spotlessly clean, and beautifully presented. Every little detail had been thoughtfully considered. The beds were cloud-like comfortable, making it almost impossible to get out of them each morning.

The bathroom was stocked with gorgeous locally made Dindi soaps and products, which felt like a little luxury retreat experience. There were more than enough towels for our stay, fresh milk waiting in the fridge, and a coffee machine ready to fuel our King Valley adventures.

The whole experience felt effortless. No scrambling for extras, no missing essentials, no “I wish they’d thought of that” moments. Everything was exactly where it should be.

They manages to feel both beautifully designed and wonderfully relaxed at the same time. It’s the kind of place where you instantly slow down, pour a coffee, take in the view, and wonder why life can’t always be this simple.

A perfect little escape in one of Victoria’s most beautiful regions.

Five stars from us… and if we could have packed the bed up and taken it home, we probably would have! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

A peaceful 1 night winery stay amongst the vines.
Pros:

A peaceful retreat amongst the vines with a lovely private outdoor area to bbq and enjoy the Prosecco! The converted shipping container was tastefully decorated and well stocked, despite the fact that it was a very small size.

Cons:

We called ahead to check that the EV chargers were working but the staff were unable to advise if they were or not. On arrival, we found one charger working perfectly.

Amazing stay with friends for birthday, would certainly return in the future & recommend to others.
Pros:

Loved the size of the house, the fact each bedroom had an ensuite and the decor was lovely. The outdoor seating areas & firepit also suited our large group. Kitchen was huge & extremely well stocked.

Cons:

We had 2 studios as well as the homestead, the studios were a little small with no TV but luckily we were able to all gather in the house.

Never again.
Pros:

Great position in vineyard surrounds and close to town.

Cons:

The cabin (a converted ship container) was ridiculously small with no room to sit down, no working surface and the queen size bed virtually touching the walls on the side!!
Could be a great spot in warm weather as a form of camping but in cooler weather grossly over priced and dihonestly described.

Glamping Style Accommodation
Pros:

It was nice to have recevied a bottle of wine in the fridge to enjoy while seating outside beside the fire.

Cons:

The space was just so tight - We had to leave our bags on the floor. It would be nice to have had a few more hooks to hang clothes or a shelf to put our toiletries on. The toilet seat was also broken and should have been repaired.

A great place to stay with gorgeous surrounds. The staff at Dal Zotto's were exceptional.
Pros:

We had the takeaway pizzas and sat in the Trattoria with a wine. The pizzas were really excellent and the service from Ignacio was exceptional.

Cons:

The room was a little small, meaning that it was a tight fit down one side of the bed. Having said that, the bed was very comfortable and the room cosy. We had a fire going in the fire pit outside our room which was nice!
