I had a lovely and relaxing stay at this resort. The ambiance was peaceful, and the rooms were comfortable, featuring a cozy fireplace. However, I was surprised that water was not provided daily and the breakfast service was a bit slow with limited choices. The pool area was nice but a bit cramped, and the Wi-Fi was quite slow at times.

My stay at Spicers Vineyard was quite the experience. While the rooms were spacious and comfortable, they fell short of the luxury I expected given the price. The service varied, with some staff being genuinely helpful, though my interactions weren't always satisfactory. The location is fantastic for exploring the surrounding vineyards, but the amenities and dining options didn't hit the mark for me. Overall, it had its charm but definitely needs some improvements to match the luxury label.

We had an incredible stay at this charming guesthouse. The location was divine, surrounded by picturesque vineyards, and the atmosphere was intimate and quiet, perfect for a romantic getaway. The food was a highlight, particularly breakfast, but we did experience a long wait for dinner on one occasion. Although the room was a bit older in style, it had a cozy, comfortable vibe that matched the overall feel of the place. We would definitely return for the lovely ambiance and the delicious dining options.

My stay was absolutely wonderful! The relaxation and comfort were unmatched, with great beds and top-notch food. The staff was genuinely friendly and professional, contributing to a warm atmosphere in a lovely, well-kept area. However, I would have loved a more intimate feel in the standard room we stayed in for the price. Overall, it was a luxurious experience that was well worth it!

Spicer's Vineyard offers a truly delightful experience with its cozy and romantic atmosphere, perfect for a getaway. The rooms are impressively spacious and clean, and I loved the additional touches like the fireplace. However, there were some hiccups during my stay, particularly with the slow dining service and a mix-up regarding room amenities. Overall, it provides great value for money, especially with the stunning vineyard views and relaxing atmosphere.
