We were very happy with our stay at this property. There were a few small issues but these were handled quickly by the owners. My one problem with this stay was the lack of WiFi and mobile service in the area. We had my 96yr old mother with us and if she had a fall or taken ill we would have been in trouble.

Never again

Was called 30mins before arriving to be able they had not got our booking... that’s wotif had done it to them again for the 4th time!! They found us a new place, but it was nothing like we booked... our whole weekend was a waste and left a sour taste in our mouth... I feel ripped off and cheated out of our only holiday for the year.. no full refund was offered... I feel cheated by wotif and the hotel... how people can run a company like this is beyond me.. I’m still not happy about it all!!!

6/10 Okay

Ricky, Hobart Tasmania

Liked: Staff & service

we liked the farm stay rooms were spacious

The kitchen was well stocked with provisions for breakfast. Nice spacious bathroom, the only things that let it down was the sheets and pillow cases were wrinkly and not ironed, to me presentation is important. What I didn't like was there was over a dozen blood filled squashed mosquitos on the walls and ceiling which made the room look terrible. Instead of counting sheep before we went to sleep we were counting squashed mosquitos.

A restful stay

We enjoyed our weekend at Mittagong. It is a lovely spot in the hills around Alexandra. We loved exploring the nearby countryside and the fire and spa at the property. It was nice to walk up the hill in the late afternoon, spotting kangaroos and enjoying the view.
