We require a 50% deposit and a valid credit card to confirm your reservation. The balance for your accommodation and any other services booked will be charged to the credit card provided at time of booking, between 30 – 60 days prior to arrival.
The credit card provided at time of booking will be tokenised and stored securely in our payment system.

Upon check-in, a pre-authorisation of 50% of one night’s tariff at the Lodge (i.e. $347.50) will be carried out on the credit card provided, as security for any incidentals and/or room damages. Rooms are checked by three staff members prior to check-ins – guests accept that unless reported within one hour of check-in, any stains on linens and carpets will be considered to have resulted from the guest’s occupation of the room, and will be charged accordingly to the guest’s account.
The property will send a final bill by email the night prior to departure, and the outstanding balance (if any) will be automatically charged to the credit card provided. Please contact reception if you have any queries about your bill.

In order to preserve the privacy of our guests and enjoyment of shared facilities, access to each property (the Lodge, Cottage and Retreat) is permitted only for guests who are staying at that property. If you wish to invite visitors, this must be pre-arranged with Stoneridge and is at management’s discretion. If permitted, there is a limit of 7 people in a guest room at any given time, including any service providers (hair and make-up, photographer etc).
For any groups making exclusive-use bookings of the Lodge, Cottage or Retreat, we have a strict ‘no party’ policy, and only guests staying are permitted on the premises.
Stoneridge does periodically host functions at the southwest end of the Lodge, which has its own entrance and does not share any facilities with the Lodge. Whilst we do not anticipate any disruption to guests’ enjoyment of our facilities and amenities, as a courtesy we nonetheless wish to make guests aware of this.
Stoneridge operates a boutique vineyard which requires vineyard work to be undertaken at certain intervals and avoiding direct sunlight. Vineyard work is organized as best as possible to minimize any interruption or inconvenience to guests, but may at certain times have to take place early in the morning or in the evening.
Please contact our team to request a copy of our wedding/event contracts for full booking terms and conditions.
The access between the Lodge and the Retreat is via Sicilian Lane, which is a private road. The Retreat is a 3 minute walk or 30 second drive from the lodge.
