The Studio was perfect for us, small and perfectly formed with everything you could possibly need for a weekend or midweek break. Spotlessly clean and comfy bed.Very quiet and I loved the tranquility of the views. The gardens were really well looked after and the alpacas, sheep and baby lambs were adorable. Will definitely return.

The studio we stayed in was clean and well facilitate, The view was amazing, we needed to get away from our busy life in Melbourne and relax and Vivere retreat offered just that. We also go to visit Noojee Trestle Bridge which is a 20 minuet drive. Overall this retreat is well worth a visit.

Disliked: Communication
Major issue was communication. Apparently the contact number we were provided with was not working so issues that arose in relation to our stay could not be dealt with in a timely fashion.

Lovely and cute... Nice getaway for our little family and there were even toys for my three year old to play with and entertain him all night. He loved it and he loved the big spa bath also. We relaxed in front of the fire with a cheese platter and freshly cooked chocolate & raspberry muffins made from our lovely host Ange. Thank very much.
