“We enjoyed a lovely few days in the Hunter Valley made unique by Ellson House.”
So clean and well kept! Delightful decor and so tastefully presented - even the extra bed/couch was made up with matching throw and cushions. The yard was also well kept and the street seemed quiet for parking and security not an issue.

“Perfect home away from home!”
From the moment we walked through the doors everything about Ellson House was perfect! Tastefully and luxuriously decorated, in a perfect location to The Valley the home did not disappoint in any way. The pantry was stocked with a supply of staple requirements such as condiments, tea and coffee and salt and pepper… The home was very clean and well maintained. Several relaxation areas, including tvs in each allowed guests to escape each other for some privacy. Thankfully it was well air conditioned and bedrooms had fans as our stay was during a heatwave. Hosts weee great communicators.

“Great place to stay.”
As other reviewers have commented, the hosts do a great job of having the house stocked with almost anything you could possibly use during a stay. It's nicely updated, two bathrooms, two heat pump units for temperature control, kitchen well stocked with good cooking gear, and there's a gas grill on the porch. Comfortable beds and living-room furniture, dining table for 6.

“The perfect Hunter stay”
Gorgeous cottage, very spacious, and incredibly generous in terms of amenities and useful supplies. The most well equipped kitchen we have ever experienced! The beds were so comfy that we could hardly get out of them!
