The vibe and the view.Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. We had the best time at The Lane Retreat. The team was so kind, helpful, and quick to respond to anything we needed. After checking out, I realized I had accidentally left my personal towel in the bathroom, and they immediately emailed me about it — even helped arrange shipping to my next hotel in Sydney. Seriously such amazing service! The retreat itself is so peaceful and beautiful. We woke up to the most gorgeous views and even saw a mob of kangaroos grazing in the distance when we checked in — it was such a magical moment. Couldn’t have asked for a better stay in Hunter Valley. Definitely hope to come back again! 💕🥹Posted onTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The Lane Retreat at Bimbadgen Palmers Lane is beautiful! So glad to have had the convenience of a 4min walk from the reception doors to our villa, 4 nights included for the newlyweds is awesome!! So amazing to soak up post-wedding bliss in such a beautiful winery! Great location, so central to the Hunter Valley! The Villas are so lovely and new, the bathrooms with twin shower is super romantic and inclusion of brekky provisions is a great little bonus! One thing missing is convenient clothes hanging locations for long items like wedding dresses, but we made it work :) Highly recommend!
