"We had a truly fantastic experience and can’t recommend it highly enough. From the moment we arrived, the scenery and setting completely took our breath away – stunning vineyard views, beautifully kept grounds, and a wonderfully relaxed atmosphere that makes you want to linger.

The wine tasting itself was excellent, with a great selection and plenty of time to enjoy each wine without feeling rushed. What really elevated the experience, though, was the incredible hospitality. Our host, Jemma, took such wonderful care of us throughout our visit. She was warm, knowledgeable, attentive, and made us feel genuinely welcome, adding personal touches that made the experience feel special rather than scripted.

It was the perfect combination of great wine, breathtaking surroundings, and exceptional service. We left feeling relaxed, happy, and already talking about our next visit. We will definitely be back, and Rickety Bridge will be a must-stop for us whenever we’re in the area again."
