Quite
simply,
perfection.
From
the
moment
we
stepped
foot
on
the
property
we
knew
this
was
going
to
something
special.
We
only
live
10
minutes
from
Spicers
Clovelly
but
we
couldn’t
think
of
a
better
place
to
celebrate
our
21st
wedding
anniversary.
Rachael
greeted
with
us
with
sincerity
and
two
glasses
of
bubbles
in
the
garden.
She
suggested
we
make
our
way
to
the
deck
overlooking
baroon
pocket
dam
to
watch
the
sunset.
Alex
showed
us
to
chairs
by
the
fire
pit
(blankets
for
our
knees
on
the
back
of
the
seats)
and
poured
us
each
a
generous
glass
of
wine.
He
very
kindly
chauffeured
us
back
to
our
room
where
we
had
a
chance
to
relax
and
freshen
up
before
dinner.
Hannah
greeted
us
at
the
restaurant
door
and
while
we
waited
for
our
table
she
made
(and
we
enjoyed)
a
couple
of
perfectly
hand
crafted
cocktails
in
the
sofa.
At
7pm
Alana
told
us
our
table
was
ready.
She
look
after
us
for
the
rest
of
the
night.
She
was
professional,
knowledgeable,
and
friendly.
She
made
us
feel
very
comfortable
and
seemed
to
know
what
we
wanted
before
we
realised
it.
Then
the
food.
Oh.
My.
God.
The
food.
Five
star
all
the
way.
Well
balanced,
thoughtful
and
uncomplicated
flavour
combinations.
We’ve
dined
a
few
Hatted
and
Michelin
Star
restaurants
over
the
years
and
very
often
the
hype
outshines
the
food.
I’ve
lost
count
of
the
amount
of
disappointing
dinners
we’ve
had
where
the
chefs
have
used
too
many
ingredients
in
a
dish
and
the
food
looks
beautiful
but
ends
up
being
over
complicated
and
nothing
shines
through.
Expensive
and
gravely
disappointing.
It
all
just
ends
up
tasting
flat
and
grey.
This
is
certainly
NOT
the
case
at
Spicers
Clovelly.
From
beginning
to
end.
Exquisite.
The
flavours,
and
the
plating,
fresh,
bright,
and
clean.
Kudos
to
the
kitchen.
One
knockout
was
the
sweet
potato
dessert.
I’m
still
thinking
about
it.
Alana
was
right.
It
was
incredible.
Our
room
was
perfection.
Clean
as
a
whistle,
comfortable,
and
plush.
Turndown
service
with
handmade
chocolate
pralines?
Yes
please!
We
WILL
be
back,
and
we
will
tell
friends,
family,
and
strangers
on
the
street
how
impeccable
Spicer
Clovelly
is.
Well
done.
Courtney,
Alex,
Alana,
Hannah,
and
Rachael
you
are
a
credit
to
your
organisation.
You
all
deserve
immediate
pay
raises.
(As
well
as
the
entire
kitchen
staff
of
course)
Thank
you
for
making
our
anniversary
so
incredible.
