This was the perfect place to stay with all the busy-ness that goes with a wedding.
Really enjoyed our stay here, Mary. Extra nice to see the long-awaited rain come to fill the tanks.

My reason for staying in Childers was business based but staying at Mango Hill Cottages took the ‘business edge’ off, as easily as kicking off the heels and settling back with just the lamp light, a glass of wine and my fave CD in the background. Everything you need is here…. even down to the little box of tooth brushes and toothpaste (new of course!) in case you’ve forgotten yours. It was a hectic work day and I slept soundly. Thanks, Mary, for pointing out the ‘where’ and ‘when’ of sunrise.

A MINI-RETREAT.
JANUARY 2017
Mary, staying here has given me the time to find energy and calm to continue on my trip home to Alice. Thank you for providing the right balance between privacy and helping me find my way around Childers. It is a lovely, friendly place. I feel as if I have been to a health retreat. All the best for the year ahead!

Swedish visitors to HILL OF PROMISE Cellar Door enjoyed the relaxing ambience of our early Summer garden. Pick up some deli items or bring delights from your own kitchen. We love the clink of cutlery on plates, the buzz of conversation. outbursts of laughter … family and friends catching up with one another over a glass of wine and some simple food. What better way to spend an afternoon. If making a special trip, give Mary a quick call 1800 816020 0408 875 305
Our cellar door is part of our lovely old Queenslander built in 1911. The garden is home to several magnificent old trees including the gorgeous Jacarandas which carpet the lawn with purple blossoms. It is a beautiful spot to sit and enjoy a glass of our HILL OF PROMISE award-winning preservative-free wines or some good Vittoria Coffee after a wine-tasting. Pick up a quiche or breadstick in town, add in some tasty cheese and a pickle or relish ….. and you have a feast!

Remember the Princesses in the Tower I wrote about in early September (well, that’s how I described the secondary fermentation stage of our latest 3 Marys Sparkling) One of the exciting times in the winery is progressive testing by TERRANZO THE WINERMAKER and the CELLAR RAT. The crown seal is carefully prised off, the contents are carefully poured into the glass….. it’s like a mini-fireworks, only better. Fine streams of pearly bubbles escape to the surface and wink at you. You take a sip…. mamma mia, deliciosa!! Back to sleep for another 4 weeks, final beauty treatment and release in December. sogni d’oro!!
