Description

Gumtree Wai is an idyllic 5 acre property which boasts a modern four bedroom, two bathroom western red cedar homestead.

In summer guests can laze all day by the landscaped salt water pool with a bark-covered pergola, lounge chairs and air mattresses or, for the more exuberant, enjoy a game of water volleyball.

In winter enjoy everything the Hunter Valley has to offer, vineyards and wine tasting, concerts, dining at its best and so much more.

The dams are stocked with yabbies for guests to catch their own meal. To completely unwind, relax on the wide verandah and soak in the amazing landscape while sipping a glass of wine or sit around the campfire on a frosty evening and watch the wallabies come out at dusk.

The homestead features reverse cycle air conditioning, a fabulously large living area, gourmet kitchen complete with stainless steel appliances and fully equipped to create a culinary delight.

Luxuriate on the generously proportioned recliner lounges, read a book, watch a movie from our impressive selection or have fun with a variety of board games.

The property comfortably sleeps seven people. The Master suite includes a queen bed, walk-in wardrobe and ensuite. Glass doors open onto the verandah where cafe table and chairs have been placed for guests to enjoy a morning coffee, or to unwind with a nightcap at the end of the day.

The second bedroom has a queen bed, the third bedroom has a double. The fourth bedroom has a wrought iron day bed.

All bedrooms are fitted with ceiling fans and built-in wardrobes.

Well behaved pets are part of the family and are welcome to enjoy the family holiday.

On arrival guests can enjoy the welcome basket complete with a variety of teas, coffee and biscuits.

If you are a complete change of scene, look no further than Gumtree Wai.

The house and its amenities almost scream at you to relax and the view from the incredibly spacious, beautifully laid out, incredibly comfortable sofas in the living area is outstanding. We'll be back to luxuriate in the house and all that it has to offer."

  • "We had such a lovely time on this property. The pool is fantastic and we truley felt like we had escaped for a few days. The house is very private, modern and comfortable. Our dog had the best time exploring the grounds as well. Highly recommended. Louise, Dave and Harry."

  • "The finishes on the house were more modern than expected for time in the country. There was plenty of space and the wrap verandah was added extra with kids. The ambience is beautiful, especially very early in the morning and after dark. Hot in the day and cold at night but the lightning storms and star gazing were amazing. We definitely felt we were somewhere private and special. Enjoy !!"
