We had a wonderful stay with our entire family at Sachas retreat. So much to do and explore on the property itself and in the surrounding area. Both houses were well equipped and had everything we needed for our stay. Stephen was great communication wise too and offered us early checkin and checkout. We will return!

Sasha's Retreat is extremely well set up for large family gatherings. The cottage is the centrepiece of all activities with close proximity to the BBQ. The outside deck's large table and huge fridge make catering for your tribe super easy. The pool is a short walk and is located between the two homes. The newer abode is outstanding. The 5 tee, one green golf course provides wonderful fun for all, including grandkids.Overall we found the Retreat a perfect place to stay. Very highly recommended.Stephen, our host, was easy to contact via email & text and was very helpful.

This is a great place for a big group get together. We had 6 couples and fitted very well in the cottage and house. Paddock golf, a pool and everything to make a pleasant stay. We were 10 min away from the heart of the Hunter yet had the most peaceful location.
