Description
Monkey Place Country House is surrounded by award winning cellar doors, minutes from great restaurants and all the Hunter Valley has to offer.
Monkey Place Country House is a huge, fully self contained sandstone house, nestled on 6 private acres, with a huge wrap around verandah facing out onto the native gardens teeming with birdlife. The surrounds also include large rose and lavender gardens, which fill the air with perfume. Monkey Place is situated next to the Wollombi brook and surrounded by the brokenback mountain ranges and the wonderful vineyards of the Hunter Valley.
The house was built from reclaimed materials. The stone came from varied sources including an old railway hut in Singleton, the footings from the old lyric theatre and even old curb and guttering from original streets. The big pieces of timber came from the old Dunnolly Bridge in Singleton and the huge piece outside the front door was taken from an old Sydney wharf. The internal cedar doors and leadlight windows have had former lives which combine to give the house a rustic charm.
Monkey Place is a unique house that will make you relax. Its the perfect Hunter Valley accommodation for celebrating a special occasion or just to get a group together under the one roof. The house is wrapped by a wide verandah overlooking the extensive gardens. There is also a sprawling pool deck area, complete with a separate outdoor spa. We have airconditioning and ceiling fans for the hotter months and a woodfire for when it gets cooler.
Monkey Place has 4 huge bedrooms with queen size beds, plus 2 wooden king single double bunk beds, and a comfortable queen sofa bed sleeping a total of 12-14 very comfortably. It has two bathrooms and a separate toilet.

Enjoy the complimentary chocolate and our local hand made organic soap. Just make sure you eat the right one! Put your feet up, relax and let Monkey Place look after you.
