About this property

Cosy two bedroom cottage in the centre of Pokolbin

Our cottage is an old style two bedroom weatherboard with a classic covered country style balcony on the Eastern and Northern side and with a recently renovated kitchen, bathroom and a cosy living/dining room to relax and watch TV or chill out after a busy day visiting the local attractions. The location is fantastic being minutes to Hunter Valley Gardens, Hope Estate, Roche and Bimbadgen and right next door to the gorgeous Italian Restaurant Pescara; very central and close if you are attending one of the many concerts in Pokolbin. It is about a five minute drive away from the Vintage Golf Resort & Spa and is surrounded by vineyards, restaurants, cafes and all of the attractions that have made the Hunter Valley Wine Region a favourite for visitors from around the globe.
We offer a very private, relaxing location, a comfortable fully self contained cottage but right in the heart of the action.
The cottage is the only rental accommodation on our property and shares the area up close to McDonalds Road with our fine art gallery, Watershed Gallery

Fantastic little cottage . Milk, butter, bread and wine were a welcome touch. Clean, comfortable and plenty of heating options. Balcony was lovely to sit on for coffee on the morning . It is closer to the road than it looks in the pictures . Lovely walk early in the morning through the property to the dam at the back . Would recommend!

We had a wonderful, relaxing stay at this peaceful cottage in Pokolbin. Surrounded by beautiful bushland, it was the perfect place to unwind after exploring the Hunter Valley. The cottage was spotless, cosy, and had everything we needed, including a well-equipped kitchen that made it easy to prepare our own meals.The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we slept soundly each night. The location is excellent, with countless wineries, restaurants, breweries, distilleries, and cafés just a short drive away. Hunter Valley Gardens is also nearby, making it a great base for exploring the area.We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would happily recommend this cottage to anyone looking for a peaceful Hunter Valley getaway.

We had a nice, relaxing stay in the tranquil bush setting in the Pokolbin cottage, The well equipped kitchen enabled us to prepare our meals after a day of sampling different wineries. The cottage is cosy, clean & we had a good night’s sleep in a comfortable bed. There are more than enough wineries, restaurants, bars, distilleries etc in a close radius of the cottage, so really don’t have to drive far. Hunter Valley gardens is also close by.

Great little cottage in the heart of Pokolbin within easy driving to all the great wineries. Yes there is a main road nearby, however at night the traffic is very lite. Great for a cheeky get away.

About the host

Hosted by Ron Hammond

Host profile image

We enjoyed 23 wonderful years raising our children, living and working in Collaroy in Sydney but we both felt that the time had come for a change of pace.
Art, wine and the Australian countryside combine in a wonderful way in Pokolbin and we have combined all three with the pleasure of providing accomodation on our 30 acre property in the heart of the vineyards.
Watershed Gallery is adjacent to the cottage and will provide an additional interest for guests visiting the region.
We want to provide an interesting experience for visitors and we are excited to be seeing our vision come to fruition.
