“Absolutely beautiful and peaceful place to stay”
This property is absolutely stunning. Your photos honestly don’t do it justice. From the wildlife on the drive in, to the breakfast basket and the tennis court. We only booked for one night as we had a wedding next door but I wish we could have stayed longer. Highly recommend!

“Absolutely delightful.”
Absolutely delightful. Hosts Alistair and Nerina were attentive and very friendly. We loved the ambience of the venue, the lovely wide verandahs, comfortable chairs, kangaroos and birds. We relaxed in tranquility while enjoying a sumptuous continental breakfast. Our accommodation was as described, with an open fireplace, very comfortable bed and modern bathroom with plenty of hot water. Thank you for a wonderful few days. We'll definitely be back

What a beautiful, peaceful place! The rooms are spacious and comfortable, and the verandah looking out across the lawns and trees is lovely for enjoying an afternoon glass of wine. Nerina and Alistair are perfect hosts, ensuring you have everything you need. The breakfast baskets are a delight!

“Excellent base to discover the Hunter Valley.”
This was a super place to stay for four nights in the Hunter Valley . The hosts were exceptionally helpful in all respects. We were initially given room 6, which was light and fine, but were upgraded to room 5, a much bigger and better room. You are left to your own devices with breakfast being delivered at 8am for you to have at your leasure. It's a beautiful setting with both Kangaroos and Wallabies around. We used the knowledgeable services of Alistair to take us on a wine tour. His presence greatly added to the trip.
