About this property

Somerville Wines Farmstay in Broke, super cute house on working farm. Walk for miles.

This cozy, rustic cottage situated overlooking the vines of Somerville Wines gives the perfect layout for a friend or family getaway.

This award-winning vineyard is situated in the boutique Broke Fordwich Wine Region, just 15 minutes drive from the heart of Pokolbin. Surrounded by beautiful mountains, vineyards and bushland the leisurely cruise to the winery is a ball of fun! When you arrive, you may be greeted by the herd of sheep or the team or pigs sharing the pastures beside you.

Easy walk next door to a lovely Restaurant called, Pasquales.

The cottage itself is comfortable, equipped with an efficient open fireplace. Build the fire yourself if you’re up for the challenge or make use of the large split system A/C unit and free Wifi. Each bedroom is fitted with a large wardrobe and mirror for easy storage of weekend gear!

Pop next door to the Somerville Wines Cellar Door and regular pop-up restaurant showcasing a variety of local chefs to make the most of the facilities available on site. Alternatively, ask Weekenda which awesome Broke Fordwich wineries to check out!

How We Price: The booking price is based on a minimum number of guests. Any guests above this number are chargeable on a per person/per night rate. The system will automatically calculate the correct rate when you enter the required number of guests. Reductions in guest numbers are non-refundable.

Arrival Details: Access to the property is made easy for you. We will send you an access code just before 2 pm on your arrival day via SMS and you will use this code for the duration of your stay.

Linen: 1 set of full bed linens and 1 bath towel per person are supplied. Guests may wish to bring extra towels depending on the length of their stay. Pool/Lake/Beach towels are BYO.

Guest Amenities: We are Eco-Friendly - to help reduce wastage, we supply a single bottle of 3in1 shampoo/conditioner/body wash in all showers. In addition, guests are advised to bring their own personal preferred bathroom products/amenities.

Wifi is provided complimentary on behalf of the owner. It is intended to be used in an appropriate manner by all guests. As the service is provided by an external 3rd party, Weekenda cannot and do not guarantee the speed or efficacy of this property's wifi connection nor do we pay any compensation for interruption of service for any reason.

Fires and Firewood: Internal wood fireplaces and outdoor fire pits only operate after the NSW Easter School Holidays up to before the NSW September School Holidays in line with NSW state fire restrictions. Please note we will normally supply enough firewood, kindling & fire-starters for between 1-2 nights of your stay. For guests wishing to have additional fires, we suggest BYO Firewood, Kindling, and Starters which can be easily purchased from the local service stations.

No Party Policy: All reservations operate under a Strict No-Party & Non-Excessive Noise Policy as prescribed in the NSW Short-Term Letting Legislation and Local Council Laws. This property is in a Residential Area. Failure to comply can jeopardise the security bond and lead to police-assisted eviction and/or extra charges being levied. We hate to have to note this but the reality is that so far this year we have had to evict 3 groups for overstacking/bad/anti-social behavior.

Extra Guests / Visitors: The number of people nominated on your booking is the maximum number of people that are allowed to be on the property at any one time, including visitors. Visitors may be requested and if approved must be approved in writing with Weekenda staff. Simply put, if Mum and Dad want to come over for a BBQ then we are likely to approve. If 10 extra people want to stop by we are unlikely to approve, which could put your booking at risk. We will always try to be reasonable with reasonable people within property constraints and House Rules.

Cameras and Noise Monitoring: Please note that it is highly likely that we have installed a Wi-Fi Security Camera at the Front Entrance (and sometimes rear of the property) We are progressively rolling these out through every property in 2022/2023

Guest Registration / ID Check : Weekenda requires every guest to complete and sign an electronic guest registration prior to arrival which will ask for photo ID i.e. a copy of your Drivers Licence or Passport. The primary booker will also be required to complete a list with the guests' names and actual mobile numbers. In the event we are unable to reach the primary booker, it is very important we can get a hold of other guests. These documents will be deleted after your departure. Access Codes are only released to Registered and Verified Guests.

Critical Update: Due to an unprecedented influx of fraudulent bookings, we are forced to impose a policy that protects our clients, industry and community against those attempting to commit fraud and theft. Any booking made within 5 days of arrival is required to provide a photo of a valid credit card in the same full name of the primary guest to match the supplied identification document. Failure of these documents matching will result in the booking being cancelled and all funds processed returned to the original card assumed as stolen and thus a fraudulent transaction. We trust we have our honest and genuine customers understanding this policy is in place to protect all parties.

Insurance: As always, but ever so more due to recent times, we strongly encourage any holidaymakers to obtain a very inexpensive 3rd Party Domestic Travel Insurance Policy to cover you for all manners of matters which may restrict travel. This is particularly helpful for things like Hunter Valley Concert cancellations, Covid or Medical and Other Emergencies for which we don't provide refunds, and anything which falls under our standard Terms & Conditions irrespective of the reason. We suggest reviewing policies with 'Cover-More' or 'Travel Insurance Direct' or 'Insureandgo'

This property is managed by Weekenda, a licensed real estate. Weekenda staff are available 7 days a week to assist from your initial enquiry through to your departure and everything in between.

We look forward to having you stay with us.

Weekend Stay
Our stay was comfortable. The location was tranquil, set on a winery, with beautiful views of the ranges. Lounge with fireplace cozy and kitchen great. Beds were comfortable. As others have mentioned yes due to the location phone coverage/wifi is bad. The downside and why a 3 star is the bathrooms were not clean. Also the firewood was enough for just 1 night so had to buy more for our second night. And yes need to bring your own matches to light the fire. A suggestion to the owners would be to allow enough firewood to service the number of nights per booking.

Beautiful location but wouldn't stay again
We were drawn to staying here as it had a fireplace and wanted to be cosy for a weekend away. The location is quite far (30 min) from the main activities of the Hunter, but it is set on a vineyard and has beautiful scenery. However we were disappointed with a few things: 1. The showers - the water pressure and temperature inconsistent 2. Internet reception - we had no mobile service and the WiFi offered was very limited 3. TV - although they offer Foxtel, the channels and limited so bring DVDs! 4. The kitchen did not have many basic necessities (e.g. salt, oil, variety of teas) 5. The beds were comfortable but recommend bringing your own pillows and extra blankets. We did love the fireplace (firewood provided but no matches!) and fresh air in the Valley but for the price (split with 4 people) would look to stay elsewhere next time.

Great location for a private getaway
This property is in a great, private location with fabulous views. We had a lovely stay and a couple of little improvements would have made it a five out of five. The hot water system is pretty old and the kitchen isn't very well fitted out for cooking.
