Jabajak Vineyard Restaurant & Rooms

Booked in for two nights after finding this listed in a magazine article - so glad that I did. The place is beautiful, rooms are well equipped and the bed was very comfortable. All of the staff were welcoming and very friendly. We did the wine tasting experience where they went through some fascinating history of the farm before trying the (excellent) wine they produce on the estate. On the Saturday evening we are in the restaurant- the food was absolutely delicious. Roman, the chef, produces food that is beautifully presented and tasted gorgeous. I’d highly recommend Jabajak to anyone who fancies a couple of nights relaxation.

What a fantastic little find. Great place, fantastic hosts and staff who make you feel so welcome. Great food and fabulous views. You are made so welcome you feel like family rather than guests. Will definitely be going again. Thank you so much Steve, Jackie , Nicole and the rest of the team. With a special thank you to Roman for making us Moules as our starter which was not on the menu, it made my Brother in law’s birthday extra special.

We had an excellent stay here, all the staff were polite friendly and chatty and very accommodating when dealing with requests. The hotel is set within the vineyard and so there is a lovely tranquil country feeling to the whole place. The owners, Steve and Jackie, always had time for a chat and made sure that we were well looked after. The food was always beautifully prepared and presented by Roman the head chef, who had the time for a chat after he had finished and explain how he had prepared certain dishes! A refreshing change from the normal corporate environment! All in all this hotel is well worth a visit. Ps the wine produced is also very good!

Where can I start, Steve and Jackie are the most accommodating down to earth friendliest hosts I've had the pleasure to meet. They go out of their way to welcome you and make you feel part of their family, that ripples out to all guests and everyone makes new friends. The location is superb, the rooms are amazingly thought out and are well equipped for all your needs. The food, is simply put, out of this world. Roman the chef is the most humble, skilled and proud chef I've ever met. The love he has for his craft, coupled with an abundance of on site fresh ingredients is reflected in his amazing flavours and presentation. Ian who prepared our breakfasts cooks an absolutely mean full breakfast, he is very approachable and is very talented. Every member of staff went out their way to make you feel welcome, relaxed and nothing was too much for them. This is a very special place

Unbelievable experience. We booked this for my wife's 50th birthday and 12 friends, with a winetasting experience followed by dinner in the cowshed room and drinks and a party after. As soon as we arrived we were made to feel right at home by Steve , Jackie and Kevin, who met us so warmly and then went out of their way to make sure this was a special experience for my wife and friends. I should have known as Steve in the weeks before was brilliant in helping to organise. Steve and Jackie when first meeting them, made us feel like we had been friends for years. Kevin led us on the wine tasting and what a star -- so knowledgable but with great stories and just a lovely , very funny guy who looked after oursleves brilliantly over the two days. The cowshed room takes your breath away , a stunning room with an open fire. The food-- out of this world, locally produced, and world class taste-- everyone said the food was stunning and this includes breakfast. In the night we ended up with one of our guests who is in a band playing what turned into a full on gig , guitar and singing-- no problem for Jabajak team-- who basically said enjoy its your party. Great selection of rum at the bar as well. Next morning Steve and Kevin emphasised no rush to leave , and we ended up staying for coffees all morning and nearly stayed for sunday lunch which looked stunning. -- and I haven't even mentioned the rooms, which were fab as well , beautifully done out , keeping old features with the new . The location and view of the vine yard is amazing and sat outside with a drink, you feel so chilled out. So as you can tell we were very impressed, Steve, Jackie and Kevin- make you feel special , they are warm genuine people backed up as well by brilliant staff who were alll fab. If you want a special night away or go for a brilliant meal-- I cannot recommend any higher. We will be back shortly.

Stunning setting. Extremely comfortable rooms. Ate in the restaurant on Friday evening and again on the Sunday lunchtime. Food was excellent and perfectly cooked. Would highly recommend a visit here, be it to stay and/or just eat. Big shout out to Steve and Jackie who went above and beyond. Perfect hosts. Thank you

My partner and I visited Jabajak for the first time this afternoon, for their first weekend of serving Sunday lunch. Upon arriving we received a warm welcome from Steve and his team which set the tone for a lovely afternoon. The bar area is pleasant and has a large, comfortable seating area where you can enjoy a drink before being brought through to the restaurant area. It was a really relaxed and comfortable environment with plenty of room in the restaurant area. I have to say in being as it was their very first weekend serving Sunday lunch you would expect some teething issues, this certainly was not the case. I ordered lamb and my partner ordered chicken, the food was absolutely delicious and the best Sunday lunch we’ve both had in a long time, the home made desserts too, were also excellent. I have to say, all of the staff were very attentive and polite which was great. We will certainly be booking soon to try the evening menu, because the Sunday lunch was just excellent, 5 stars!

It would take too long for me to describe what a brilliant jewel of a hotel the Jabajak is. Steve and his staff spend their time trying to and succeed in exceeding our expectations through out our stay. The room was beautifully and comfortably furnished to a very specification, also sympathetically styled to retain and enhance the rustic character I would also like to compliment thier chef not only for the wonderful meals he produced, but also for the attention to detail, in asking us (as there were vegetarians in our party) if there was anything we would like off menu. Awesome service. We are looking forward to returning .

Had the pleasure of a stay at Jabajak over the Beaujolais nouveau festivities. Amazing time. The six course tasting menu and wine paring was sublime.This was delivered in a knowledgeable unpretentious and entertaining way .A lobster tail hiding under the surface of a a bowl of delicious bouillabaisse was a memorable highlight. Stayed in the grain store suit. Lovely room.Free standing bath, exposed beams, Egyptian cotton bedding ,large flat screen TV, coffee machine and a fridge with fresh milk and water.Nothing not to like here. Planning a return visit for the vineyard tour and tasting which was highly recommended by some fellow guests.
