Rules on Noise.
We do accept birthday and even hen's and bucks but only on the condition you have no plans for an outdoor music concert :).
We only allow music to be played from a hand held portable bluetooth speaker and nothing louder as we've had issues in the past when guests bring a sound system and blast music all night disturbing our neighbours. So we only allow music outside until 8pm and only via a bluetooth speaker. If these expectations are consistent with your plans then the lodge will be fantastic for your getaway.
If you are caught bringing a sound system larger than a portable bluetooth system that you can grasp in the palm of your hands, your booking will be cancelled plus $500 fine. You will need to explicitly state you agree to these conditions of booking for your request to be accepted.

About the host

Hosted by Faya

Host profile image
Faya works with the United Nations and Anisa is an artist. We wanted to buy a home in nature that we could share with others when we are away. So we bought Lovedale Lodge which allows us to bask in the rural tranquility of the Hunter Valley.

Why they chose this property

When we decided to leave Sydney, we considered various options. After much consideration, we decided on the Hunter Valley because it is full of interesting things to do but still close enough to Sydney that we can stay in touch with our friends.
After inspecting a number of properties, Lovedale Lodge was the one which suited us the best. It was chock full of potential. We have done a ton of work upgrading the property and it has been a thrilling project to date. I don't think we will ever be finished - we just keep thinking of more cool things to do with it.

What makes this property unique

I guess the thing that really defines Lovedale Lodge is Carradano Cottage. The original Lovedale Lodge is a charming European yurt-style traditional cottage. It has a superb octagonal shaped interior, and a high vaulted timber ceiling, giving Carradano Cottage its unique ambience. We are not aware of anything else like this in the whole of the Hunter Valley.
