I loved everything in this property from the moment we stepped in to the end of our stay!! Service was fantastic and breakfast was everything I loved...

I stayed here with my partner for a couple of days and it wasn't long enough. To Rob and Ian it was absolutely amazing and my partner and I loved every minute of it. Everything you could ever ask for in a retreat was there. I was quite hesitant about a BnB as it was my first one but it simply was amazing. The breakfast is to die for and the hospitality is second to none. A must is the massages, they are really good and worth every penny. Thank you Rob and Ian for taking the extra effort to make it a great weekend.

If I was to write what I want it will take me all day :). All I can say my partner and I stayed for 2 nights at this beautiful property that felt so relaxing and yet felt like home away from home. Ian and Robert I can’t thank you enough for making our stay so comfortable. Ian your breakfast was out of this world. You are a great cook. Thank you for teaching me some easy things about cooking :). We will definitely be back again. Thank you guys. You are amazing.

I shouted my elderly parents a weekend at Starhaven Retreat. Both of them had the most amazing time and we’re so well looked after by the hosts. My mum has just spent the last hour telling me in detail how beautiful the property is, how wonderful the breakfast was and how lovely Ian and Rob were. She couldn’t recommend Starhaven retreat enough and says she’ll definitely go back for another visit 😁

Absolutely could not fault a thing. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left the hosts were exceptional. They clearly love their beautiful house and region and love sharing it with others. As well as all that is advertised there are so many 'extras' and the breakfast kept us going all day. Don't think we will ever find a B&B that matches this and we cannot wait to come back to Starhaven Retreat and stay for longer next time. We will use it as a base to explore the wineries in the region and catch the ferry across to Melbourne for a day trip without having to fight with the Melbourne traffic.
