Additional Information

COTTAGE DETAILS
Feel free to wander around the vineyard, have a drink or enjoy your picnic on the lawn in front of the winery.

PLEASE NOTE
Please note, as the cottage is situated right next to our vineyard, use of the Coonara wood burner is restricted to the cooler months - April to October - when there is no risk of smoke taint to the grapes. We will supply enough wood for your first evening and extra wood is available to purchase.

If you are booking for two guests and wish to use two beds, please book for three guests to secure use of the second bed (book for four for three guests using four beds and book five guests for four guests using all four beds). This will charge you an additional fee to reflect the extra washing and cleaning, thank you (Riparide has no facility to book by number of beds used, only number of guests).

Please note that we cannot provide wifi as we are in a 'black spot'.

My friends and I were over the moon with the accomodation at Wine Farm. Anna and Neil were wonderful hosts and Anna was very communicative before and during our stay. We enjoyed our walk around the vi...neyard as well as sharing a bottle of Hawkins Family rosé on our first night. The cottage is roomy, well-appointed and lovingly decorated. The location was perfect for short trips to the many beaches and coastal towns nearby. Would 💯 book again! 🍷🐑

We had a lovely, relaxing stay at the Wine Farm Cottage. It's set in a very quite and tranquil place. Our dog, Monte, was transfixed with all the birds, greenery, and sheep we could see from the living room window. We loved the coffee making kit provided too!

My husband Neil and I run a small biodynamic vineyard in South Gippsland where we grow, make and bottle our wine. We live there with our three young children, Squid the mini Schnauzer, a few chooks and handful of sheep.
