Great place to recharge

Don't let the "romantic" title fool you. This is a great place even for solo travellers. Secluded, quiet, and still close to cellars doors and places to eat. I'll be back.

This was our third stay and we will be coming back again. The cottage was excellent and Dom has everything you need on hand for breakfast to the bread machine and a bottle of port to warm you up, he also has the log fire prepared for you to light when ready. Nothing like sitting in a warm spa under the stars it a must

Great place to stay, most things are within a 10-15 minute drive. Very quiet and secluded. The spa was great as well as the fire - plenty of firewood provided. Perfect for couples or families wanting some peace and quiet.

Hidden Gem

Manzanilla Ridge was a fantastic property in a great location. The seclusion of the cabins made you feel immersed in the native bush and the owners were very welcoming and accommodating. The fully equipped kitchen was a great surprise. We'll be back.
