Amazing get away house
What an incredible space Wine Down Manor was for our family (7adults 2 grandchildren) get away to celebrate a major birthday.
Jill and Craig are very generous hosts with all your needs supplied at their very comfortable and well appointed home.
There was enough space to enjoy board games comfortably. A highlight was the huge back yard where children and adults alike could run around and play ball with a great outside seating area.
Beds were very comfortable and bedrooms spacious. Cooking and preparing food was a pleasure in the lovely kitchen. A good design of the house was that the bedrooms and living areas were well separated.
It was an amazing 5 days away for our family!

A perfect haven
We stayed in this beautiful home for a
Weekend with friends when we were going to The Killers concert at Hope Estate. It was a perfect location for the free buses, and for a local Babysitter, and a perfect hang space for the 3 of our families. There was plenty of space
For the young kids too. All round, great stay. Thank you.

Lovely holiday house in the best location
Wine Down Manor is a gorgeous house. Jill was a responsive host who provided us with lots of helpful tips to make our stay comfortable. We had a wonderful time in the house. With two families, there was more than enough room for everyone. And we were so close to the supermarket and bottle shop for supplies. We would be happy to come back and stay anytime.

Beautiful property, perfect for attending a wedding
Stayed at Wine Down Manor for the weekend with friends, attending a wedding. Huge bathrooms for the girls getting ready and the guys stayed put on the pool table. Recommend to any larger group looking for a base to attend a wedding - much better than booking separate motel rooms.

Great listing for a group of friends
This property was super clean, convenient and close to the vineyards we had booked for wine tasting. Our group of 11 enjoyed the stay very much and especially appreciated the large kitchen / dining space as we made many meals during our New Years stay. Highly recommend :)

Great place to stay at
Our host Jill was great, she was very communicative leading up to us checking in. The property is well furnished, very clean and has a lot of entertainment and space to keep all guests entertained. Great location - close to a lot of hospitality venues and attractions (we did wine tasting and went to golf courses which Jill kindly helped us with by providing a list of suggestions). Would definitely come here again and recommend my friends to come here. Thanks for having us.
