My friend and I loved the stay. The property was in great condition and very kind to share the pool with us. We were spoilt for space with the 2 of us. Loved the spa! Would recommend.

Thank you for your lovely review Cathy - it was our pleasure to host you both for the weekend. We're thrilled that you enjoyed the pool and the spa! With thanks from all the Team here at Hunter Valley Stays.
Normally we stay in a hotel but thought we would do something different and rent a cottage,.
Would definitely stay here again, very peaceful and comfortable, just like being in your home, we loved it.
