During our 5-day trip to Hunter Valley and Port Stephens, this hotel was by far the best choice we made. For our anniversary trip, the hotel staff upgraded us to the Hunter Suite and surprised us with a lovely bottle of local sparkling wine—such a thoughtful touch! We also had dinner at Botanica, one of their associated restaurants, located about a 15-minute drive from the hotel. The meal was excellent and well worth the trip. Breakfast at the hotel was another highlight, as we enjoyed it outdoors in a serene and picturesque setting. One of the most memorable moments was sipping wine while watching kangaroos hop around the property—a truly magical experience. The hotel grounds are stunning, and the attention to detail made our stay unforgettable. Overall, a beautiful property with outstanding service that made our anniversary trip extra special.

A wonderful mini break

Although only for one night, it was a delightful experience. The room was spotless and modern, the lodge was very welcoming with log fires and a lovely restaurant, and the staff were welcoming and friendly.

Property is very underwhelming in person, online looks spectacular however, our king bedroom was very small, no natural lighting and felt like we were in a shoe box, our room had cob webs and was poorly cleaned, the bathroom towel racks were not heated, the bathroom fan did not work and we had troubles with the air conditioning, the property is fine but overall our stay was nothing exciting, the hospitality was average and nothing out of the ordinary, we were hoping for more based on the reviews however both me and my partner would not recommend this place to anyone, save your money and put it towards something more exciting!
