“Very pleasant stay, Hunter Valley.”
Very clean throughout, very comfortable bed, excellent breakfast, very relaxing place to spend a while. Good place from which to visit local vineyards (bus will pick you up from hotel so you can enjoy wine tastings). The building is actually an old wooden-structured convent which was relocated from elsewhere and reassembled - very interesting story, details displayed at hotel. Marvellous spot.

“Historic house. Good location. Needs an upgrade inside. Expensive. Pretty gardens and surroundings.”
The Convent is a lovely historic building. Breakfast was nice and had a few choices. It was a pretty location and staff were friendly. Bedroom was comfy and large. Bathroom perfectly adequate. We had two rooms next to each other with a connecting balcony that was good, especially in the early morning sun. There was a small pool (didn't use) and a tennis court (also didn't use) Neither were mentioned to me on arrival.
