The property itself is lovely and beautifully appointed. Beds are comfortable and rooms layout is excellent. The welcome breakfast hamper, wine and chocolate were fantastic. Some minor issues spoiled what could have been a perfect score. Firstly unbeknown to us the pool was not for our exclusive use. Another party of guests from elsewhere were also using the pool. It was not a problem but a surprise to find strangers around your pool. Nowhere in any of the material for this property does it state that it is not exclusive use. The BBQ is rickety and has no hood. The lid on the BBQ has broken handles that need attention. It probably needs an upgrade. The carving knives in the kitchen were dangerously blunt and there was no knife sharpener to be found. We ended up using steak knives in trying to carve a roast. The batteries for remote controls for the TV and sound system were flat and needed replacement. No instructions for these systems were in the welcome binder. Individually these issues are small but cumulatively they just took some of the polish off what was a lovely stay.

We stayed on a glorious sunny weekend and were in total chillax mode within minutes of discovering the wonderful rooms and living area with an awesome stone fireplace! Beautiful view over the vines to the hills on the other side of the valley and walking to sit with our g&t’s beside the lake to watch the sun run its beams of gold along the tops was a memory maker! Everything we needed was provided and the artworks adorning every single wall was so special! Great experience!

Beautiful, serene and spacious.

This property surpassed our expectations. Great house for a large group, with separate wings and plenty of space for everyone. Lots to do (swimming pool, tennis court, play equipment and more) or just as easily do nothing but take in the spectacular views from every room in the house. Loved our stay and would happily return.

If you want a quite get away with family and friends this property is it! Simply beautiful location set back in the foot hills of a superb winery. So serene and picturesque location with amazing sunsets, escarpment views, wrapped up with magic Australiana flora and fauna to be experienced. Our stay was a wintery weekend away from Sydney and host Michele ensured we had plenty of fire wood for both the indoor open fire and out doors fire on the veranda. The kitchen is very well appointed, with heaps of bench space and room to prepare meals for our group of 14. The three bathrooms which were also well appointed, made for very little waiting for showers or a toilets. Bedrooms are airconditioned and away from the central hub, except the master which sit on a mezzanine floor above the kitchen, being loft style huge bedroom overlooking the dinning room and lounge. Coming to the property the first time, Mio Monte can be a little tricky to enter as you drive in via a side road to the back of the property, separate from the main winery entrance. At the assigned address drive up the lane way to the end, before turning right to come to the back of the property, where you will find plenty of parking for guests. Mio Monte is spacious with out being pretentious. Bedding and linen are first class with ample towels provided for everyone. Two large fridges and pantry made it easy to store all out food and wines for the 5 day stay. The property is good value for the nightly rate, making it very affordable for a larger group to stay together. It is located a good 20 mins from Pokolbin village but only a few minutes from Broke general store and bottle shop. We would definitely stay here again, next time for a summer get away to maximise the pool and tennis court on site. Michele and her staff made us feel so welcome. Everyone was so very accommodating and lovely. Thanks again for making us feel so welcome.

We had a great couple nights at this property, good size for a large family and close to play area and tennis court, we never left and loved every minute of it, we will be back

This place was such an amazing find! The house is even more beautiful in person and it was absolutely pristine on arrival. Getting in was nice and easy as there were signs directed to the house and Michelle provided stacks of information before arrival to help us get there. The girls are already talking about wanting to go back again, 10/10 experience! Thank you so much for the stay!
