“If you want a quiet and relaxed cute apartment that is walking distance from pubs and breakfast spots, air balloon rides and wineries this is your spot. Speaking of spot, the place is spotlessly clean and friendly, speaking of friendly, the hosts will make you feel like family, adding flowers they picked and wine in the fridge and having the aircon running when you get there. Great place, great people. Enjoy your stay. We did.
Thank you for your hospitality. You really helped us to make the most of our anniversary weekend away. Thank you for the finishing touches with the flowers and wine. Keep in touch. Xxx” – Jess and Seb

Celia and David visiting the Hunter Valley for a cheese and wine festival
“Chris and Richard were amazing hosts, such beautiful friendly people and check in was a breeze. The cabin was super cute and furnished beautifully. It had everything we needed with a super comfy bed. The property itself is lovely and has a fountain and horses. It is only a 2 min walk to Potters Brewery and and close to all the attractions in the Hunter Valley. I would 100% recommend his property.” – Kelly and Julie
“A very lovely, cozy, clean and well presented cottage that is very close to the wineries. Christine and Richard were lovely hosts, friendly and hospitable. The cottage was perfect location for us… 10 minutes to the wineries in Broke and Hermitage Rds (they offered to drive and pick us up too!). The cottage is off the main road but far enough from the road noise. I loved hearing the birds chirping and the leaves on the trees as the wind blows them. I loved Christine’s finishing touches in the room, the decor, the fresh flowers and the little chocolates she’s provided… They have 3 lovely little friendly dogs and an ex-thoroughbred who is just so gorgeous to look at and pat. I would definitely recommend for couples!… and will stay here again.” – Katherine
