Lovedale Gartelmann Wines Hotels

"Rydges was outstanding , clean and quality room. Breakfast was top notch and kids loved the amenities too! Great holiday "

"This property is a little gem. Could have easily stayed for a lot longer. Everything was top notch. The owners have prioritised quality rather than jamming more properties onto a small area. The view we woke up to each morning was breathtaking "

"A beautiful and peaceful place to stay, with thoughtful design and a relaxing natural setting. The Wi-Fi was reliable enough for remote work, and the staff were incredibly responsive and always happy to help. I left feeling refreshed and would absolutely recommend it to anyone looking for a quiet, magical getaway. Hope to return soon!"

"We wanted a weekend away, but didn’t want to travel too far as it was only for two nights, then I found this little villa on the Gartelmann Estate up the Hunter Valley. It was just perfect we were aloud to bring our little Labordoodle dog there was a yard he could run around in, we took him to the deck cafe & to Gartelmanns wine tasting everyone on the estate were very friendly & accomodating to us & our little dog Fred.The Villa is great & has everything you need for a weekend away we were offered another night at half price, we definitely would have taken up if we didn’t have work commitments.We will definitely stay there again sometime in the near future."

"7 older ladies thoroughly enjoyed our 3 nights at Bluebush Cottage. We absolutely loved having our own en-suites. There were so many places to sit, eat, drink and talk. We loved sitting outside having drinks (of locally sourced wine) and nibbles before dinner looking at the gorgeous roses, vines, kangaroos and lovely sunsets. Would definitely recommend this cottage for large groups of friends or family there was so much space."

"Septic very stinky coming back through drain into the house. Modem didn’t work. Iron left stains all over clothes and there was no ironing board so had to use a towel on the table. No fans so bedrooms were terribly hot and air con in main house either wasn’t working or was undersized for the house because it didn’t seem to keep the house cool. Fridge was too small for 14 people, we didn’t bring eskies so it made it hard to fit all the food in the fridge that needed to be kept cool. The surrounds were nice and quiet and lovely country feel. Close to many wineries and cafes. "

"Weekenda communication was over whelming & pushy - I recognise that we were staying in a multi million dollar property but we have always met our payment deadlines and never caused any damage in over 20 years of similar family holidays. I am happy to give specific feedback in more detail.The property looked fabulous - from the online information right up to opening the door.We enjoyed our 8 day stays with many good things but a lot of niggling small issues, which I am also happy to provide constructive feedback. A lot of these could have been fixed before our arrival if you had a detailed specific check sheet for each property.The location was perfect.The pool where our grandchildren spent most of each day was the best we have ever experienced. For such a large house, the air conditioning was very effective. We did have a circuit trip and it took us a while to find the 2nd circuit board in the hallway cupboard.The kitchen was good with everything we needed, but we had to make a pantry on the shelves on the other side of the sink.We were very surprised that the entire house was full of personal things on walls and tables - everywhere - which all looked to be very precious - our grandchildren were incredibly careful not to go near any of the low tables.All of the remotes didn't work - we replaced the batteries.Several mattresses were too hard - yet we sleep on firm beds.I have reached the word limit. If these niggles are fixed, we would love to go backThank you"
