Important note for party planners:

Unfortunately, this is not the property for you. This home is located in a quiet neighborhood, so a hens/bucks/schoolies type celebration is not appropriate. We can easily determine if the house rule of “No parties or events” is disrespected, and this means additional charges and/or eviction will apply, which everyone wants to avoid. If you are unsure, please enquire before booking.



How We Price: The booking price is based on a minimum number of guests. Any guests above this number are chargeable on a per person/per night rate. The system will automatically calculate the correct rate when you enter the required number of guests. Reductions in guest numbers are non-refundable.



Pools: If the property has a Swimming Pool then it will be opened for swimming for the start of the NSW September School Holidays and closed and winterised immediately after the NSW Easter School Holidays have been completed.



Arrival Details: Access to the property is made simple. You’ll receive an access code via SMS just before 3pm on your arrival day, which you’ll use for the duration of your stay. Standard check-in is at 3pm. While an earlier arrival may be possible, it cannot be confirmed until the afternoon prior to your arrival. If an earlier check-in is available, we will send you an SMS by 4pm the day before to confirm.



Wi-Fi is provided complimentary on behalf of the owner. It is intended to be used in an appropriate manner by all guests. As the service is provided by an external 3rd party, Weekenda cannot and do not guarantee the speed or efficacy of this property's Wi-Fi connection nor do we pay any compensation for interruption of service for any reason.



Pets: Pets are not allowed on this property.



Linen: 1 set of full bed linens and 1 bath towel per person are supplied. Guests may wish to bring extra towels depending on the length of their stay. Pool/Lake/Beach towels are BYO.



Respectful Stays (The Not-So-Fine Print): We want you to fully enjoy your time away, and we also ask that guests help us look after the home and the surrounding community. To keep things comfortable for everyone: This is a no-party property, the Quiet hours are between 9pm and 8am. The number of guests at property must not exceed the booking without written permission, the maximum number of guests allowed at the property is 8.



These guidelines help ensure Weekenda homes stay available for future escapes (yours included) and that local neighbours remain welcoming to visitors.



Extra Guests / Visitors: The number of people nominated on your booking is the maximum number of people that are allowed to be on the property at any one time, including visitors. Visitors may be requested and if approved must be approved in writing with Weekenda staff. Simply put, if Mum and Dad want to come over for a BBQ then we are likely to approve. If 10 extra people want to stop by, we are unlikely to approve, which could put your booking at risk. We will always try to be reasonable with reasonable people within property constraints and House Rules.



Caretaker: The caretaker's may be onsite during your stay, with their accommodation located separately at the front of the property, away from the main house. This arrangement allows the caretaker to be available if needed while still ensuring guests can enjoy their stay with privacy and uninterrupted use of the main accommodation, pool and spa etc.



Cameras and Noise Monitoring: There are 5 external security cameras installed at this location presently, but the owner reserves the right at any time to install additional external cameras at their discretion. Cameras are positioned to view front entry, driveway and owner's shed areas for external security monitoring only. All cameras are installed in line with local regulations. A noise monitoring device is installed - fines apply to guests found to have disconnected, removed or damaged the noise device. These devices are used to monitor and maintain ours and guest's responsibilities under the NSW STR Code of Conduct.



Guest Registration / ID Check: Weekenda requires every guest to complete and sign an electronic guest registration prior to arrival which will ask for a photo ID i.e. a copy of your driver's Licence or Passport. The primary booker will also be required to complete a list with the guest's names and actual mobile numbers. In the event we are unable to reach the primary booker, it is very important we can get a hold of other guests. These documents will be deleted after your departure. Access Codes are only released to Registered and Verified Guests.



Critical Update: Due to an unprecedented influx of fraudulent bookings, we are forced to impose a policy that protects our clients, industry and community against those attempting to commit fraud and theft. Any booking made within 5 days of arrival is required to provide a photo of a valid credit card in the same full name of the primary guest to match the supplied identification document. Failure of these documents matching will result in the booking being cancelled and all funds processed returned to the original card assumed as stolen and thus a fraudulent transaction. We trust we have our honest and genuine customers understanding this policy is in place to protect all parties.



Insurance: As always, but ever so more due to recent times, we strongly encourage any holidaymakers to obtain a very inexpensive 3rd Party Domestic Travel Insurance Policy to cover you for all manners of matters that may restrict travel. This is particularly helpful for things like Hunter Valley Concert cancellations, Covid or Medical and Other Emergencies for which we don't provide refunds, and anything that falls under our standard Terms & Conditions irrespective of the reason. We suggest reviewing policies with 'Cover-More' or 'Travel Insurance Direct' or 'Insureandgo'



This property is managed by Weekenda, a licensed real estate. Weekenda staff are available 7 days a week to assist from your initial inquiry through to your departure and everything in between.



We look forward to having you stay with us.



Interaction with Guests:

We are open for any questions, assistance or issues 24hrs a day, 365 days a year via our office call centre.

Liked: Cleanliness, location, listing accuracy
We very much enjoyed our stay at Heavenly Hideaway. The house was spotless, well-presented, and ideally located close to the wineries. The space was comfortable and inviting, and it was clear that the property is well cared for.A small note for future guests: pantry supplies are quite minimal, so if you plan to cook on-site, it’s worth bringing essentialsOne important point to mention is that while we booked through Stayz, the actual payment and booking process was handled by a third-party company, Weekenda.com.au. Unfortunately, we were required to provide extensive personal information, including details for all guests and even a photo of our credit card online. I was very hesitant to provide this and felt it was an unnecessary and concerning breach of privacy.While we were extremely happy with the property itself, we would not book a property managed by Weekenda.com.au again due to these privacy concerns.

Hi Vanessa, Thank you so much for your thoughtful review and for taking the time to share your experience at Heavenly Hideaway. We’re thrilled to hear you enjoyed the property, found it comfortable, and appreciated its location near the wineries. It’s always wonderful to know that our guests feel the space is well cared for and inviting! Thank you also for your note about pantry supplies—this is a helpful tip for future guests planning to cook on-site. Regarding the booking process, we completely understand your concerns. The ID and credit card verification you experienced is a standard security measure used not just by Weekenda, but widely across short-term rentals, including platforms like Stayz, and even in motels. Please know that Weekenda is very approachable, and if you had any uneasy feelings about this process, we would have been happy for you to reach out and discuss it further. We’re delighted you had such a positive stay at Heavenly Hideaway, and we hope the beautiful location and cozy comfort of the house left lasting memories. We’d love to welcome you back anytime! Warm regards, The Team at Weekenda
