The Farmhouse at Meletos

Apr 30th, 2023

This was the fourth time we've stayed at The Farmhouse, including once for our wedding. We opted for the 'Stay and Dine' package for one night, which we've previously experienced. Whilst the rooms remain clean and in good condition and the views excellent, there was a notable reduction in amenities this time around, and the smell of the Farmhouse and our room was lacking its previous refreshing scent and was more on the musky side. I was disappointed at the absence of mocktails during dinner at The Stables - not even a simple mocktail using cucumber, mint, simple syrup and tonic was able to be made. The wait staff were disappointing when compared to previous visits; less polished and more often than not, unable to remember what they were serving to us and answer basic wine pairing questions. The ambience and food was otherwise lovely. Breakfast at Meletos was also disappointing. When we first did a Stay and Dine, there were a la carte options. Now, it was a small continental buffet in the middle of the restaurant. The food was uncovered/unprotected and without any refrigeration. No a la carte was available, which was particularly unfortunate for individuals with dietary requirements. Thankfully upon informing the manager I was pregnant and so could not safely consume any of the room temperature food (smoked salmon, hams, quiches with soft cheese etc), the kitchen agreed to make me a simple omelet at no extra cost. Unfortunately this experience was a bit of a let down and we will not be returning again.
