A beautiful property with the kindest hosts. We felt thoroughly looked after - with gorgeous food, wine, and surrounding scenery. Evelyn and Stuart were wonderful hosts and really made sure we had everything we could ask for. The location is stunning and just around the corner from many wineries. Would really recommend!

“A memorable and enjoyable stay at RDC.”
Stayed for a 30th Birthday and the Hosts were very accommodating. Gifted us a bottle of Pinot noir on arrival. The breakfast and coffee in the morning was a great way to start the day. The property had a great view over the valley, we enjoyed a nice sunset in the hammocks with wine. The house is very nice with a comfortable set up.

Evelyn and Stewart were amazingly accommodating and friendly hosts. The room was exceptional with a very comfortable bed. Evelyn is also an exceptional chef. Sleeping in the hammocks under the stars was also a special treat. The wines are also amazing and the host’s dogs are super friendly. Will definitely be back.

“An excellent stay, delightful hosts and wonderful setting!”
This property was situated in the prettiest part of the Hunter Valley and the cottage which overlooked the vines was well appointed and comfortable. The hosts were exceptionally friendly and welcoming and it was great to hear about the vineyard and its operations.

The owners were so friendly & very warm & welcoming! They were so knowledgeable about their own vineyard & the different wines they produce, Of which my favourite Cabernet Sauvignon 2018 was so delicious. The Chardonnay Villa really felt like our own home away from home! Definitely will be back to stay again! Oh & the beds, bed linen & bath towels all smelt so gorgeous. Honestly one of the best nights sleep in such a comfortable bed with the softest sheets I have ever experienced!
