“Beautiful building and communal areas. Rooms need TLC. Staff were either inexistant or rude.”
Lovely location, and communal areas of the building. Beautiful art. Lovely to have a fireplace in the room.

“Can’t wait to come back”
Stunning thatched room overlooking the vineyard, delicious breakfast, amazing artwork everywhere, yet still “homely” I felt like I was staying with old friends. We took a picnic for dinner which had lots of choices and plenty to eat.

“Beautiful, comfortable, exceptional”
The atmosphere, the welcome glass of crisp rose wine, the exceptional service, the comfortable beds and powerful showers. The place you dream of when you're at your desk

“A beautiful estate but a little overpriced.”
This is our second stay at Holden Manz. It is a beautiful property with interesting artwork from the families art gallery in the town. The suites are spacious with a lovely outdoor area attached. The pool area is also lovely and we liked the basket that came with each suite so you could pack the towels provided and whatever else you might need at the pool. The complementary wine tasting was also a nice touch. Also like having a milk frother in the room. The staff were very nice.
