What a delightful place to stay! What a delightful surprise! We booked Bannockburn house for a quick stay to visit local vineyards, and wish we could have stayed longer. The hospitality, location and little details made this a noteworthy stay. Hosts Chris and Jules were welcoming and attentive. They had great recommendations on where to visit and eat, even helping us book a reservation. You can tell they are plugged into the local community and it greatly enhanced our stay. The location was top for us as we could walk to dinner and have easy access to biking trails. It is also in a neighbourhood (not the centre of town), so very quiet at night. Little details we loved and did not expect: generous breakfast each morning, beautiful stars, and a super friendly kitty always looking for pets. Thank you Chris and Jules for such a fantastic stay!

Fabulous accommodation and location for a relaxing break. We stayed in the cottage which was spacious and well appointed. The hosts, Jules and Chris, were welcoming and friendly. We were invited to attend an Anzac Day service with the locals, which was really special and memorable. Breakfast was excellent. Lots to choose from and also lots of other nice snacks in the room. Bannockburn was a lovely place to visit with lots of nice walks and wineries. Highly recommend staying at Bannockburn House. You won't be disappointed.

10/10. I have never stayed in such a nice hotel. Everything was wonderful-delicious breakfast, plenty of lovely treats, clean and comfortable private room, high-quality facilities, etc. Japanese people love baths, so it was also so good that the bathtub and shower booth were separated. This is a very quiet and peaceful area. We felt really relaxed. We loved spending time on the balcony with amazing views. Especially the starry sky is unforgettable. The hosts were wonderful - very welcoming, helpful and friendly, in spite of my poor English. They provided a lot of information about the area, which made our trip even better. Anyway, everything was an experience that exceeded my expectations. A two day stay was too short. I will definitely come back. I would highly recommend staying here

Thank you, Jules & Chris, for a wonderful stay. We are so grateful for your kind welcome. We arrived on a rather frosty day, and the beautiful cottage was warm and ready for our arrival. It has everything you need. If you’re looking for a cosy & homely getaway amongst the wineries, then look no further. Not to mention, there is a charming wine country restaurant called Bannockburn Hotel, only 800m from the cottage that offers a delicious menu and extensive wine list. It’s a must! We can’t wait to return!

Without a doubt, the two finest hosts we’ve ever had. They are genuinely wonderful people who put their guests ahead of everything else because they know that will make their business better. Wonderful space. Much bigger than the photos. I really felt right at home the moment I walked in. It was the quietest and most peaceful space I’ve ever been in. They both work at the Bannockburn Hotel (Restaurant). We ate there for two nights. Amazing dinner, make sure you reserve a space there. They treated us like royalty there. When Julia heard at dinner the night before we left we wanted to go to a very high-end winery for a tasting, she called her “good friend “ on the spot and made us a reservation for 10:30am on Sunday for a private tasting with the owner/winemaker
