+Its worth it for the spectacular night sky display . And the peace and quiet. A great little pub down the road too. Took a trip to Castlepoint. Well worth the hours drive and walk up to the viewing point just past the lighthouse.
−Hot water pressure is very low. Needs a new pump or something . Although cold pressure seems ok. Not a plumber so dont know why they are so unequal. I lived on tank water with a pump and had no problems with pressure unless the pump had failed in some way. So something to work on. Cheers

“Stunning and relaxing stay at the vineyard.”
+The place is amazing. Lovely fireplace warms up the whole loft very well. Tina is incredibly responsive and helpful. I found the bed to be quite comfortable and the space was big and very clean! Additionally, the location is gorgeous overlooking the vineyard and the stars on a clear night was breathtaking.
−As mentioned before, the water pressure for the tub is pretty low but it’s fine as long as you plan your bath well in advance!

“A clean and comfortable basic place to sleep. Shower water preasure is bad.”
+The property was a great location for me. It was fun to live at a winery. The staff, Alex and Ollie, were amazingly kind, gracious, and ready to help with anything I needed. The wood stove was fantastic.
−The hot water pressure was horrid. It had a nice big shower and tub but a trickle of hot water. Cosmetically it needs a little updating, faded worn upholstery, minimal and dated decor and more need a bit of attention to the details. Again it was comfortable and very clean. Hopefully this isn’t a direct reflection of the wines being made next door.

“Lovely spot to stay for even longer than our 2 nights”
+The country quiet. The great views from every window. Pleasant employee working on the ground floor..inviting us to the Gladstone Vineyard open day. Bought nice bottle.
−Not a thing to report. Even the weather was beautiful. Close enough to Masterton and Carterton

“Lovely and relaxing. Would definitely stay again.”
+Lovely location, spacious space with great facilities. No breakfast supplied, but everything else we need was provided (tea, coffee etc). Would definitely stay again and hopefully sample the wines next visit.
−Hot water pressure in bath needs addressing and a fan would be good on hot night.
