Unfortunately it rained heavily for 90% of the time we were here but the rooms were clean, staff were super friendly and the hotel was very nice. The library off reception has a log fire and there is a cozy comfort to the reception which I loved plus the smell of a log fire burning. They are also walking distance to the hunter valley village shops and gardens so easy to get to and really convenient too.

The pool needs some TLC as it was very green and the poolside area isn't very inviting at all. One of the staff members was rude to us upon asking a question . Location is great and very central . A walk to Roche estate and Hunter valley gardens . We were out most of the time but it wouldn't be first on my list to visit .

Gastro Pub Food! We had a really enjoyable dinner here -…read moreamazing burger and well cooked salmon fillet together with a very reasonably priced bottle of Hunter Valley wine. There's something on the menu for everyone here, the prices are reasonable, the portions are generous and the service is fast and friendly. No wonder this place is so popular!

This is a small hotel attached to a pub, like many others in the area…read more Room was tidy, neat and comfortable with a tv, fridge, iron and ironing board. Queen bed was very comfortable for both sitting and sleeping, we didn't get to that other option beds are used for... ;) Check in was a little confusing as there is no front desk for the hotel part so you actually check in,pay and get your room key at the bar in the pub's main area. Once again, it is part of a pub and they serve your standard pub/comfort food but bookings seem to be essential. we were there on a saturday night and and every table was booked. There is a tiny section available for walk-ins, but that was also full by 6pm Very quiet and great for the sunday morning sleep in we both needed after a 30th bday the night before. Would stay again.

What fun this place is!…read more Located in the Hunter Valley along a country road - this 25 acre farm property is pretty cool. Run by Marie (Maureen?) our fantastic, hardworking hostess: these antique train carriages brought in from New Zealand proved to have a lot of personality. Each one is different and while the themes are a bit cheesy (Royal, Safari..), they're a real piece of history. each is equipped with proper bedroom, living room, toilets and full kitchen facilities (TVs, music, books to borrow, etc. too.) Some have a patio area -- some a small deck. there's even one you could really have a business retreat/meeting at. if you're not keen on the carriages, check out the guest house which sleeps 10 with it's two loft spaces. Enjoy a swim or a little tennis, or take a nice walk on the ground. located next to the bike rentals property, it would be great to rent a bike and find your way around hunter valley and 'home' to Krinklewood Cottages for a stay. highlights of our trip include a billion stars at night, two schnauzers and the pair of kangaroos we saw on our way back from dinner in town. if you're looking for something different, check out Krinklewood. :) Beware: there's no AC inside - though it cools down quick at night. Also: bugs! if you're a city slicker and/or not from Australia - this might not be the place for you. the ant are big. but outside only. bring mossie spray- just in case. Date of stay: 12/29-30/14

Pokolbin Village - A Corker Amounst The Wineries…read more I have chosen Pokolbin Village for me and my family to stay at in The Hunter Valley Wine Country (only two hours from Sydney) during the first week of January 2017, that is a 'four star' rating and I can understand why they have an amazing rating. The place is nicely displayed with a range of specialty shops and restaurant for your convenience with lots of parking spaces available. There are easy-to-find signs especially when you're trying to locate 'Reception' so you can check-in, get your keys, unload your gear and start your holiday as-soon-as-possible. Once we entered the reception area, we were greeted by a friendly staff straight away that made us feel welcomed. The receptionist asked where I was parked and then directed me with easy instructions how to get to the our 'self-contained' villa accommodation and we noticed that on the key-ring to our villa, there were adverts on it stating that you can receive discounts for participating on-site shops and some outlets when shown. I drove the short distance to our room without a problem and found nearby parking - oh... by-the-way, the specialty shops are not too far from the room we were staying at, just a short stroll. . When we entered our room, the air-conditioner was already on that gave us an instant relief from the heat we were experiencing - 39 degrees Celsius (102.2 Farenheit). The facilities were conveniently located near the rooms - swimming pool, BBQ facilities, tennis court and boules court and on top of that, free wifi. We made great use of the swimming pool and BBQ facilities with nearby table and seats so you can enjoy your meal outdoors with the natural, non-pollutant country air. Pokolbin Village is only minutes away from all major attractions and event locations. It is the ideal place for couples, families or groups who are looking for a place with natural charms and beauty for a 'time-out' of your everyday hustle and bustle lifestyle.
