'Edenview' -Peaceful Farm Stay on 5 Acres/ 6 Bedrooms / Family or Group Getaway

'Edenview' is the place to escape to - Perfect for families and groups with space to relax and reconnect. Enjoy quiet and peaceful country views, and yet be just a comfortable drive to wineries and local attractions. Edenview has a lovely large house, set on a beautiful and scenic 5 acre parcel in the Hunter Valley. The house has a formal living area, family/dining room with a 3-meter-long dining table, seats 12, and TV room as well as 6 oversized bedrooms (9 beds) and 3 bathrooms.
Set up for entertaining - and relaxing - Edenview is situated within a few kilometers from the foot of the Watagan Mountain Range in Quorrobolong, and just 2 hours north of Sydney.
Edenview is a scenic 20 minute drive to local wineries, boutique restaurants and the Hunter Valley Gardens, yet just 12 -15 mins drive to Cessnock for all your grocery and daily needs and 20 minutes from the M1 Freeway from Sydney.
As the name suggests, the 180 degree views from Edenview are just magical, capturing the mountain scape and rolling hills of the beautiful Hunter Valley.
Edenview is our home. We love animals, so we understand that you may wish to bring your fur babies with you on your holiday. There is a totally fenced half acre dog proof yard to keep your fur babies safe and happy. We ask that your fur babies are kept outside where they can be undercover and safe and not allowed indoors at all.
We have 2 miniature ponies, one called Sonny, the other Franklin, a horse called Leo, Leo can be pushy so we recommend that guests not go into the horse paddock. There are also resident chickens on site as well as a cheeky cockatoo called Maxi who loves to say 'Hi' when you arrive and ‘Bye’ when you leave.
Inside the house, we have a large fish tank with multiple goldfish.
We take our 2 dogs with us when guests have booked the property, and our cat is kept locked up safely in the large shed on the property with plenty of food and water.

THE NIGHT SKY:
On a clear night, with our 180 degree views, the sky is amazing! Turn off the lights in the house and enjoy the vast expanse of stars in the night sky. You may even be lucky to see a shooting star or two! There are definitely plenty of slow-moving satellites to watch.

WINE TOURS
Edenview have teamed up with some of the best Wine Tour companies in the Hunter Valley.
There are both half day and full day wine tours available, plus shuttle bus companies that will do transfers from Edenview to concerts, wineries or local restaurants. Rover Buses pick up from around the corner at a very reasonable price when there is a concert, and most chartered buses you arrange will pick up and drop off at Edenview, so no need to haggle about who is the designated driver! :)
