Awesome outdoor area so we were able to bring our dog. Delicious food and local beer and wine, served by the most pleasant and professional staff you will ever come across at a country pub.

We enjoyed a drink in the bar which has such a nice setting (and even better outside but the weather was bad) before dinner in the restaurant. Meal, wine list and staff were excellent. Very comfortable accomodation. Would highly recommend a stay, a meal, a drink, or all three !!

On a hot summer day it doesn't matter how good the menu is if you are stuck in the sun sweating. This is where the Mountain View scores on all fronts. A great menu with more than the usual fare coupled with beautiful naturally shaded outdoor seating. The feeling is akin to dining in a rainforest whilst still being in the King Valley. Always a good idea to book ahead to avoid disappointment. I should also note all of the staff understand great customer service.
