Reviews for Petersons Armidale Winery and Guesthouse
Review 1：We were not directed to our room on arrival and after parking our car we trudged around in rain for quite a while before another guest came to our rescue.
Review 2：Charming old homestead with very comfortable suite. Enjoyed talking to other guests. Excellent meal but quite expensive. Lovely breakfast.
Review 3：A few annoying flies. A problem I know with many people going in and out. But some solution for fly wire doors would be good. In the restaurant the windows were open (good) but that revealed many dead flies and other bugs on the sill. Should be cleaned when windows are opened.
Review 4：The ambience. The lounge and pre dinner drinks. The breakfast and dinner
Review 5：Dinner was good but not exceptional. One had the feeling that portions were very measured, we had to ask for more bread. The room was comfortable but no easy chair, and in summer even with the fan provided, would be very stuffy.
Review 6：Homestead atmosphere, friendly and very helpful staff.
Review 7：One of our rooms had not been cleaned properly & had to be vacuumed. We sat down before dinner for a drink & were served WARM champagne..The manager Kimberley flitted off at this time & left the chef in charge. He didn't even know how to pour champagne!! Other guests arrived & she was not there to greet them. Poor performance overall from her.
Review 8：Love the location & the atmosphere of the property.
Review 9：Hmmmm, need a lot more time to find an answer to that, other than our stay was too short. We'll be back again
Review 10：The Guest House, Staff friendliness and hospitality, Quality well prepared meals, Relaxed atmosphere
Review 11：Dinner menu was a little restrictive. There weren't options for non-meat eaters such as vegetarians or those who didn't feel like meat on the night.
Review 12：Stately manor with large, luxurious and comfortable rooms, and lovely gardens with with a relaxing, sunlit yard.
Review 13：Beautiful Property. Helpful Staff. Lovely room, Best hotel bed ever. Deep bath. Wonderful meal then sitting by the fire in the Great Hall with cheese platter and Muscat and Port. We will be back
Review 14：The warm reception. the marvellous living room fires on a cold night. Being able to stay in for a nice dinner after a long days drive. The grandeur of the house itself and the very fine room we had.
Review 15：From the very welcoming and obliging hostesses, simply devine meals and absolutely gorgeous accomodation; our stay in one of Armidale's most opulent homesteads was exquisite!
Review 16：Wonderful guest house with limited rooms, dinner onsite if desired, period architecture and furnishing, serene grounds with established trees,cattle and horses in the paddocks, vineyard with cellar door in converted horse stables, would come again without hesitation.
Review 17：Ordered medium rare steak for dinner it was good but more medium to well.
Review 18：Location away from the crowd. Beautiful reception/lounge with wood panelling.
Review 19：There was a lot of dust on the blinds in the bedroom and bathroom. Also a lot of dust on the doors in the breast room. Otherwise, we could not fault it. Wish we could have stayed longer.

Review 28：Not an efficient heating system in the room. The grouting in the shower needs to be stripped and reapplied as it was black. It would have been nice to have had a cappuccino machine.

The room was very comfortable and the bathroom had a beautiful claw bath, just the best.When we arrived we were shown around and said we could relax in the lounge area with with the warmth coming from the open fireplace and a drink provided.

Review 89：Dinner was of a high standard. Staff pleasant and helpful. Lovely setting.
Review 90：Dinner was a little disappointing, not very creative and a bit more like a dinner party meal. Adequate but not exactly fine dining.
Review 91：Lovely gracious old building and a good place to stay if travelling down the New England Highway from Qld to NSW
Review 92：Because we booked so late, the dining room was not open so we couldn't sample the beautiful menu.
Review 93：The beautiful house. The delightful girl who greeted us. The grounds. The friendly girl who served breakfast and took us to the winery. The bedroom. The history. (We would love to have found out more)
Review 94：No air con or bar fridge (it's a winery, where do I keep my wine chilled?) or TV.
Review 95：We liked having strong water pressure in the shower. Breakfast was lovely. The grounds and interior were impressive.
Review 96：The home and grounds were just beautiful. The meal we had in the dining room was as good as you would get in a fine dining restaurant in Sydney. The breakfast served in the breakfast room was also one of the best I have had. It was just wonderful sitting on the expansive verandah taking in the view of the garden, reading and drinking wine with a background of soft piped music. The only fault is the distance from Sydney.
Review 97：An Architectural gem, wonderful grounds, good food and discreet relaxed service. As a regular visitor to Australia an amazing find, can't recommend it too highly.
Review 98：Historical building, well maintained, modern rooms, beautifull gardens, guaranteed quiet relaxing time, wine tasting during day.Friendly attentive staff, by far best available rooms in Armidale about 4/5 k from town centre.
Review 99：There is nothing we do not like about Peterson's Armidale Winery and Guesthouse.
Review 100：Geoff and I love staying at Peterson's Armidale Winery and Guesthouse. We are repeat visitors and appreciate the ambience, the great staff, the food and the beautifully appointed rooms. The staff were very understanding when we couldn't arrive by 2100 because of a detour because of bushfires and were more than willing to make us welcome by leaving the key and fresh milk for a cup of tea when we arrived.
Review 101：We did enjoy the food, but if we were going to pick anything it would have to be that it was fairly standard.
Review 102：Amazing place, wine, room, facilities, staff, location.
Review 103：A very fine ambience in this delightfully restored winery. Complimentary port or muscat in the Great hall with two wood fires blazing was a relaxing way to end a day's driving. The restaurant meal was excellent, as was the breakfast in the sunny morning room.All the staff were friendly and efficient. The rooms were comfortable, and the underfloor heating in the bathroom was an added luxury. I would unreservedly recommend Petersons Winery at Armidale.
