Relaxing, great location

Very happy with our recent stay just after Xmas. Location was great and the kids loved the nearby horses in the paddock that they could visit each day. Rooms were spacious and the property and pool were clean and maintained. We had a small problem with ants in the kitchen but once sprayed they seemed to disappear. Would definitely stay again.

Phenomenal place for a large group to stay

Was a fantastic experience!!! We had an absolute ball and loved the place. A group of 12 adults here for a wine tour and this is a wonderful place to stay. Clean, spacious, lots of different social areas to sit. The pool, tennis court and large grass area were fantastic for us to spend our afternoons. Wish we had bought citronella candles as lots of bugs and mosquitoes around. But more a suggestion for travellers. Would definitely stay here again!!!!!

Fantastic

We stayed here for my son’s wedding we had the groomsmen staying as well, bedrooms were big, the pool was a hit as it was quite hot. Would recommend for anyone having a wedding at Enzo at Ironbark as it is in walking distance. There was a wedding there on the Friday night and we didn’t hear a thing, only when the fireworks went off and we were able to enjoy them as well, it was very peaceful during the day and night, the scenery was beautiful.

Amazing get away in wine country!

Overall our experience was great. We had a lovely time because the weather was good and the kids were able to use the swimming pool and the tennis court. The house was nice and comfortable as well. My only criticism is the fridge in the kitchen is very old and doesn’t shut very well. You have to really push it hard to seal. That could certainly do with replacing.

Fantastic location perfect for a girls weekend away management staff were so friendly and helpful!

I booked this property for my hens weekend away for 15 people, it was fantastic everyone loved the property it was quiet & secluded but not to far from shops and vineyards. The property was clean and well kept. The pool and outdoor areas were awesome and the view over the vineyards was beautiful! The staff were friendly and so helpful with any questions! I had an unforgettable hens weekend and will definitely be booking again for a girls weekend away!

Fantastic family getaway among the vines

We stayed here recently for a significant family birthday and had a great weekend. The house is very well set up for a big group and the pool and tennis court were also well used during our stay. Everything was clean, kitchen was well-equipped, the living room was spacious and the deck was the perfect place to sit and look out over the vines. It all felt very private, with no-one else around us. Dinner at Yellow Billy on the main road opposite the Brewhouse was also lovely. Check-in was easy and Pete responded quickly to any queries. I would highly recommend this property for a large group getaway.

Fantastic family holiday in the Hunter.

“The property was amazing. We loved our stay. It comfortably fit our three families and was fabulous for our get together. It had enough space, plenty of bedding, blankets and all the good stuff that makes it comfy. Honestly, we really loved this property. We even rang HVS with a query and were quickly attended to which was really great. Being located on a property with an amazing brewery really made it special.”??

Wonderful wedding weekend.

A perfect fit for our daughter’s wedding at Ironbark Hill. Wonderful to be on-site in such a beautiful setting. Being on-site took away some of the stress of this momentous occasion. It was lovely to be able to accommodate close family and to have the bridesmaids accommodate in the Retreat. ??

Wonderful venue for the whole family!

The Retreat at Ironbark Hill was brilliant for the family for our daughters wedding at The beautiful Ironbark Hill wedding venue. the house was well equipped, comfortable and the living area larger than appeared in the photos. The bedrooms were spacious, and the outlook tranquil across the vineyards. In spring and summer it would be amazing to se the green vines growth and use the pool.
