Gumnut Grove The Vintage

Elfin Hill Vineyard Accommodation

Villa Provence

"We were pleasantly surprised by Villa Provence, couldn’t be happier with the location, charm and cleanliness of the place. I would definitely return. Communication via text message was very clear in regards to key collection. It has beautiful gardens and facilities, photos don’t do the place justice!!"

The Carriages

"My wife and I chose Carriages as a base for our visit to the Hunter Valley to attend a friend's wedding. This is the kind of place that you really hope to find when you're spending a few days away, but seldom do. Our room was one of six on the ground floor, arranged along a long shared verandah. There are two other rooms on a floor above that have private balconies. The verandah looks out on a large lawn with shady trees. There is a tennis court and a pool nearby. The room was unfussy and well appointed, with adjoining bathroom and shower. There was a small service area with toaster, electric kettle and plates and cutlery. Tea and coffee (fresh ground for plunger) was provided. Bed was a comfortable queen size. Everything was clean and well-serviced. A 'mini bar' was stocked with beers, an assortment of snacks, and wines from the Carriages vineyards. Our room came with breakfast, which was brought to the verandah in the morning in a picnic hamper. The excellent continental-style fare consisted of fresh croissants, fresh fruit salad, fresh orange juice, muesli, yoghurt and grain bread for toasting, with an assortment of condiments. The Carriages environment is among vineyards and situated away from the main house. It was quiet and relaxing, with bird life and the occasional kangaroo transiting the lawn. Our hosts were convivial and attentive without being intrusive. Carriages is a short walking distance to both The Convent and Circa 1876, which makes it an ideal place to stay if attending events at either of those venues. It's also close driving distance to most of the main Hunter Valley vineyards and attractions. I highly recommend this hotel, and would make it my preferred stay on any further visits to the Hunter Valley. "

Tower Lodge

"We again had a fantastic weekend at Tower Lodge in Pokolbin. The suites are gorgeous—super comfy beds and amazing bath & shower. We have loved each of our three stays to celebrate special occasions and look forward to visiting again. Brook, Guy and Olivia treated us like family, nothing was too much trouble, from our cocktail making experience to the awesome dinners. Perfect for relaxing or visiting any of the fabulous cellar doors nearby. Also the local Kangaroos are fabulous to watch as they sit in the shade of the trees."

The Convent Hunter Valley Hotel

"This is a beautiful hotel, especially the front desk staff, SAM, who enthusiastically introduced us to the hotel. This century-old building features a romantic French design. Highly recommended."

Pokolbin Farm Stay

"The environment is very good, mainly self-service, suitable for parent-child families"

Palmers Lane Estate Hunter Valley

"We had such a beautiful stay at Palmer’s Lane Estate. The serenity of the area was exactly what we needed—peaceful, relaxing, and surrounded by stunning scenery. The house itself was incredibly well thought out. The kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed (even little touches like bug spray and hand sanitiser), which made our stay so comfortable. Everything was clean, tidy, and very well maintained. A special thank you to the hosts, who were so caring and considerate—kindly offering us an early check-in and even giving us an extra hour at checkout, which we really appreciated. We truly enjoyed every moment and will definitely be back—next time for a longer stay!"
