- "Private location" - "Everything" - "Cedars was such an amazing space and just what we needed for our romantic getaway. We stayed in villa lorea which has bushy views and kangaroos all over the place. The best past of the stay was that you feel like you’re the only ones on the acreage. We enjoyed the open plan of the villa & took advantage of the infrared sauna which is located in the lounge room. Christelle was so helpful with making our stay wonderful, fielding my many questions about the local wineries and restaurants. She made the stay a memorable one. We will definitely be back!"
