Birthday Celebrations

A wonderful low key birthday celebration for my daughter, Puddleduck provided the ideal location with a wonderful kitchen and dining room that opened out to the pool and outdoor entertainment area. It also provided easy access to explore the very best of the Pokolbin from wineries to cafes and restaurants!

Great spot… nice and quiet

Booked this lovely home for my 40th weekend away. It’s in a nice quiet location, the rooms are lovely and the kitchen gorgeous. Great size pool however lots of bugs in the water and spiders so didn’t spend too much time in it. Appreciate it’s been quite wet leading up to our stay. Cute neighbours dog came for a visit to say hi, make sure to say hi to him his name is Sam.
