Rainy day relaxation

Great to get out of Sydney for a bit. Really enjoyed sitting by the fire with a few good books while the Roos enjoyed the rain. Convenient to our favourite wineries. Will definitely stay again.

Great location, well appointed, comfortable beds

The house is very well appointed, it was warm, the beds were comfortable and clean. Some aspects of the kitchen and bathrooms were not especially clean, but this was a minor point. The house had everything we needed and we enjoyed our short stay immensely.

Weekend family getaway

The accommodation was great & we really enjoyed our stay in the house, it was cosy and the beds were very comfortable.Wineries were only a short drive & there is a great new Coles shopping centre within 5min drive. The local wildlife was a treat & we even had a family of shetland ponies visit us each nite very entertaining. We'd definitely stay again

Family Hunter Getaway at Parson’s Retreat!

A fantastic location for a relaxing family weekend away. Loved the house and the surrounding property with the vineyard, dam and kangaroos. We organised a tour of the Hunter on Saturday and were picked up and dropped off at the property. We loved the interior of Parson’s Retreat and had a very comfortable stay! We would definitely come back! Thanks so much for the complimentary bottle of wine and the Tim Tams!

Not bad, not good, and not worth the money

While the location is very pleasant, and the house adequate, a thorough clean and attention to maintenance (broken taps, missing door handles, cracked tiles, broken mirrors, etc.) would be required before I would recommend the property. The beds, however, are very comfortable and clean with nice pillows and good blankets, etc., and the towels are fluffy. However, at this price, you would be better off in one of the swish resorts located nearby.

Thank you for taking the time to review your stay, Jane and your feedback! It does sadden us to hear this and your comments have been passed back onto the grounds men who will look over everything you have mentioned. Parsons Retreat gets quite good reviews, so this does come at a shock. We hope you can stay again and enjoy your experience as everyone else has.

Perfect family getaway

Our family had a great time at this property! We loved our secluded it is and how close to nature it is. We enjoyed all the animals and walking on the vast fields and reconnecting with nature. It is in close proximity to the main wine district as well as coles around 8 mins drive! We highly recommend it for large families :)

Gorgeous country house

This gorgeous country house was the perfect base for exploring the Hunter Valley. It was a large, clean abs well equipped house. It was perfect for relaxing with a wine on the deck overlooking the vines and a dam. I highly recommend this property.

Girls weekend get away

AMAZING! Myself and 9 friends stayed at this beautiful house for a weekend away and could not fault our experience. It is a great location, close to the popular wineries and coles is only up the road. The house itself was beautiful, so clean and the lookout from the balcony is gorgeous. Would love to get back there soon. Thank you!

Lovely hideaway

Lovely property - well decorated and stocked (including all basics (even mozzie spray!) and a complimentary bottle of wine). Very comfortable beds. Nice view over a dam and private vineyards. Lots of kangaroos and even a friendly herd of pigs. We really enjoyed just chilling on the verandah. Up a long driveway (a little bit hard to find), so very quiet and peaceful.

Terrific place to get away from it all. Plenty of room, quirky structure and such bliss to sit on the back deck with a glass of wine overlooking the dam watching the kangaroos hop by.

Lovely house but could not find how to lock front door when going out and at night.

Beds in bedrooms roll away from the wall when trying to sit up and read. No matches to light fire. Hot plates a bit dirty. Loved the Tim tams in the fridge. Mattresses are very comfortable. Quiet and peaceful area.

Peaceful Location

We had a girls weekend here. The beds were so comfortable, and having ducted a/c AND a fireplace in winter was amazing. It would be great if the deck was covered, as it rained while we were there - but that is minor. We had a great, relaxing time.

Perfect place to relax

A beautiful home where close attention to detail has been paid. It has a kinda Scandi feel about it with beautiful vintage furniture and rustic pieces throughout the house. A lovely position too being close to a variety of vineyards and eateries. Would be a great spot for families or groups of friends. Thanks to Weekenda for making our weekend so easy and enjoyable.

Pick of the Bunch

We searched for a long time to find the right kind of house for our group. We are happy we went with Parson's. The home is beautifully decorated and well laid out giving us lots of space. Beds are very comfortable with fresh linens. It's in a great position too being a short drive to the main area of the Hunter Valley. We sampled probably too many wineries but enjoyed spreading out back at the house and tasting our purchases. Fantastic spot for groups of friends or families. Big thanks to Weekenda for allowing us to stay in this lovely property.
