We enjoyed a wonderful stay. The house was spacious and modern with everything we needed. Lots of verandah and bbq area where the family could relax and enjoy the view of the hills and countryside. Our young grandchild enjoyed the spacious surroundings, riding their bikes, patting the dogs and watching the horses.A great place for a family to unwind. Our hosts Lisa and Wes were very accommodating and helpful.

Beautiful farm stay
Such a lovely clean house with stunning views. The house layout was perfect for groups. We loved the separate studio just across the deck for the light sleepers that didn’t want to be disturbed. Gorgeous horses at the back and the most affectionate dogs, Alice and Bear, who came to visited us and lapped up all the attention! Lisa is a great host and was so accommodating. We all had a great weekend and didn’t want to leave!

Suggestion
We thoroughly enjoyed our short stay. Wish it had been longer. Couple of comments: it would be better to have a door on bathroom of main suite for privacy if 2 were using room. It didn't affect our group but for others...Also personally I found pillow too high; might help to have a flatter one in room. But thanks for how you look after your place. It was great!

Relaxing country vibe
Great setup to relax with your friends. Nice location and house is beautifully presented. Love the view across the valley and mountains. Awesome host.We had a great stay.Minor suggestion-prefer a normal door instead of Obscure Glass door to the main bathroom.

Great experience, beautiful views and amazing home hosts were lovely and helpful. However the fridge wasnt too powerful especially the freezer and the TV didnt work properly. We also didnt realize the hosts were also staying on the property in a seperate house.

Perfect for the family
Just a perfectly lovely home for a family weekend away. Spacious, clean & beautifully furnished. More than enough room for our group of 12 & despite being a wintery weekend we were warm & cosy with the fireplace & plenty of games & books to keep us entertained. The kids loved the horses & visits from the very friendly Bear & Alice. Terrific spot, highly recommend.

Birthday Getaway
We booked this property for my husband’s birthday, to celebrate with a group of 10. There was more than enough room for the whole group. The house was immaculately clean, exceptionally comfortable and had everything that you could possibly need for a relaxing and enjoyable weekend away. It was an easy drive to the big wineries in the area and, with the beautiful deck to sit on watching the view while we enjoyed our days purchases, it was perfect. I cannot recommend it enough!!
Thank you to our hosts.

Family get together over Christmas
We spent a well-earned 5-night Christmas break on this lovely property. Everything was exactly as we hoped - nice clean spacious homely relaxing - for 11 people to have their own space and plenty of room to have card games and watch tv together. There was a BBQ and even a rice cooker☺️ and a kitchen aid stand mixer! The local butcher was fine, and supermarkets were just 20mins away. A little way from the main wineries but still it was only about 50 mins drive. Bear and Alice (the 2 dogs) were lovely - but Bear, lose those 6kgs next time we see you ok? Alice, we might bring you a new throwing stick! Lisa and Wes were both unassuming and terribly helpful, which we much appreciated. We recommend this property to anyone.

Worth the drive
About an hour from the Hunter Valley wineries we toured but worth the drive to be in a beautiful and spacious home, in a serene and lovely location. Well appointed. Some great features. New. Also, away from town and neighbourhood lights so the stars are absolutely stunning.
