What do people say about Misty Mountains Estate
“We stayed in the chalets which were clean as a whistle and neat as a pin. The indoor fireplace keeps the place warm and the units are well kitted out. They look very new. Good value for money. The staff are very friendly and passionate about the wine, beers and gin which are all concocted on the premises.” – Grosses 4U TripAdvisor.
“The Misty Mountains cottages are on the premises of the very nice Misty Mountains winery and general estate. The cottages are well-equipped as so arranged that guests have no reason to even see one another. I have been staying in the Aristea cottage for a number of times now and the facilities are simply splendid for one who prefers privacy and self-catering. Robert and Michelle are excellent hosts – although I have never met them and their arrangements are perfect.” – Hannes TripAdvisor.
“Quite ironic that you would get one of the best pizzas, I’ve eaten, in a wine cellar. It’s a wine cellar so don’t expect a restaurant ambience. The service is great and the pizzas probably one of the best I’ve eaten. I enjoyed the craft beer and cider tasting. A place I will visit over and over again. Well worth a visit.” – Franken TripAdvisor.
“This is a peaceful and quiet place. There are no activities for kids, but a safe clean environment. The rooms are big and fresh, the kitchen is well equipped. The bathroom is big and spacious. I will definitely recommend this place if you just want to relax and be peaceful. There is even a fireplace in the room and in the other room if you stay in the Disa place. This place is well worth checking out. They even supply you with lots of wood and firelighters inside and outside.” – Foxylady TripAdvisor.
