Our extended stay at Lone Star Creek Vineyard while our house was being repaired was wonderful. From the outset Gillian was clear in her communication and the checkin process was simple. The welcome pack of a bottle of Lone Star Red and Parmesan biscuits was a delicious bonus. The cottage is packed with every imaginable requirement for an extended retreat or overnight stay.
The surrounding vineyards were just bursting into leaf and we enjoyed our daily walk through the farm where we had encounters with the local kangaroo population, and chats with the sheep in the paddock.
It is a working farm so there was some coming and going nearby but most of the time we felt as though it was just us and the lorikeets enjoying the beautiful location.
We also took advantage of the offer of a wine tasting with Robin which was an interesting comparison of wines made from the Lone Star Creek grapes by themselves and some surrounding vintners.
Overall it is a great place to have as a base for exploring many of the Yarra Valley vineyards and the surrounding hills.
