Pros: Madeline was so lovely, very helpful when trying to work out travelling between wineries. Location was great, right around the corner from most popular wineries in area. Stayed in the cottage on the property and was so nice and homey- definitely recommend staying in the cottage. The shared kitchen was great, ate out but also made a home cooked meal one night with all the right facilities. Isabella (the cat) was a nice cuddle buddy.

She drove us to our lunch date in the nearby winery and came back to pick us up which allowed us to really enjoy the fabulous lunch. That’s exceptional service.

The local towns and wineries were conveniently accessible yet far enough away as to not intrude into the peaceful silence of the house. We loved the attention to detail that Chris and Joe have put into their place, and they made us feel very welcome; they made us feel like friends rather than customers.

Pros: Lovely location. Very comfy bed.

Cons: We arrived to the hunter valley early so we could have a chat with our hosts to get an idea of the area and good vineyards to visit and also put some bubbles and food in the fridge. However when we arrived at 1230 there was no one around. Really needed to use the bathroom and were in an area where there’s not much around.

Cons: The room we were given (815)was small, decor was bad, bathroom was very old and outdated. Shower over bath at nearly $400 a night was very disappointing.
