Peaceful and relaxing, we were welcomed and made to feel at home. We stayed at Karriview for 3 nights over the New Year break in the Superior Chalet Evelyn. The location is perfect to explore the region and has so many wineries and beautiful locations on it’s doorstep. The accommodation is spacious and comfortable but tired. As the chalet is joined to the one next door, every footstep, cough or thump is audible. The peacock also is very vocal throughout the night, and that accompanied by the continuous dropping of gum nuts (?) on the roof can make a difference if you are a light sleeper. The kitchenette has all you need if you’re not expecting to cook, perhaps a bbq on the deck would be a solution. The bathroom is large and has natural light, but is in need of updating, especially the taps which are quite difficult to turn on and off. The grounds are beautiful and extensive (40 acres) with areas to walk and relax, but also are in need of revitalisation and refer to areas which are no longer used or maintained. Neither tv would allow connection to devices as expected from a smart tv. Whilst there is a restaurant, upon checking in we were advised that the chef had left, and therefore options were reduced. Breakfast was included, continental style and magpies joined us for breakfast which was a delightful surprise. We ate dinner in the restaurant on BBQ night which was lovely. The staff and the surroundings make up for some of the inconsistencies of the property, which has the potential to be a fantastic place stay.
