Guest contribution: "I just wanted to let you know how much we enjoyed our time at Valley View Cottage. You indeed have million dollar views, especially from the top of the had time to drive around the area, and in my opinion you have one of the best locations and situations in all of the hunter valley. Actually, that was the consensus of the entire group and they insisted that I write you to thank you and express their pleasure with the property".

We have successfully been in business for 16 years. We aim for you to be comfortable while enjoying an Australian country experience - that feeling of 'getting away'. You can see more photos on our flickr page and instagram and talk with us.

Location

Located within minutes of wineries, restaurants, cafes, golf, ballooning etc Valley View Cottage is close to the heart of the Wine Country action while offering 5 private and peaceful acres of park like grounds and gardens, only for your enjoyment.

Tour the vineyards, play golf, ride a horse, hire a bike, have a picnic or enjoy a scenic lookout. Valley View Cottage is in the vineyard district, and offers a base for many day trips to enjoy the delights of Barrington Tops, Port Stephens and surrounding National Parks.

Few properties offer such solitude, peace and scenery, and facilities. A country escape like this is becoming harder to find.

Our own rates are - Weekends are 2 night stays for $1400 for up to 8 guests. Midweek monday/thursday inclusive - a minimum of $250 per night for 2 guests [1 room] $75 for additional guests [2 night minimums]. Long Weekends are a 3 night minimum, Easter 4 night minimum.

Specials can apply for short notice stays: watch our site.

Dogs on holiday

Valley View is pet friendly. Why pay expensive kennel fees - when your dog can enjoy a holiday too. A pet fee of $25 applies per pet per stay. Pets must be booked in with us.

Valley View has farm fencing with the neighbouring properties - your pet will need to be supervised, but has private acres to enjoy in your company.
Bring your own pet bedding.
We ask that you fully clean up after your dog - bag and bin all dog waste

No pet is to be left unaccompanied in the house at any time.

A Relaxing & Memorable Stay
This was our second visit to this lovely property, and once again, we had a wonderful experience. The peaceful surroundings and vast acreage made it the perfect place to unwind and recharge. Our fur baby had the time of his life, running freely around the grounds – definitely a highlight of the trip for us! The property itself is well-maintained, clean, and offers a cosy, relaxing atmosphere. It’s the perfect getaway for anyone looking to escape the hustle and bustle. The only small suggestion we have would be to provide Wi-Fi and perhaps offer recent movies or something like Netflix or Stan. It would add a modern touch to an already fantastic stay. We’ll definitely be returning for a third visit!

Hunter weekend away with my husband, parents and our little dog. Secluded, peaceful locations but <10 minutes to top vineyards and restaurants. Stunning gardens and valley views. Extremely comfortable property with well-equipped kitchen, lots of seating and great heating for cool nights. Sorry we couldn’t stay longer!

Home away from home in an amazing location
The property, wow, what can I say. It is amazing, homely and so close to everywhere you want to go. We didn’t want to leave at the end of it! Robyn was very responsive as a host and was kind and sweet to our requests. Would recommend for anyone looking for a home Way from home near the hunter. I will definitely be booking again for our next hunter trip.

Chilled weekend -- just what we needed
Absolutely loved our stay! Great views, breathtaking sunsets as we sipped our wine and sat around the fire playing boardgames. My furbaby was in absolute heaven. A tiny recommendation would be to upgrade tech like TV, get new movie titles, provide wifi and a basic welcome basket maybe. Other than that, the hosts were so easy to communicate with and helpful. Thanks Robyn and Alan! :) Will definitely be back again.

Beautiful getaway
I had a lovely weekend away here with my Mum and my sisters. Well equipped kitchen, comfy beds and the setting was spectacular! Loved the gardens and the outdoor seating areas. Only comment would be its time to ditch the DVD player and get a Smart TV! We struggled to get it to work. Other than that it was great, thanks!

Valley view cottage
We had a wonderful stay in this quiet cottage on the hill, with enough room to accommodate extended family for a wedding we were attending to a venue close by. Spacious and clean with decent sized bedrooms, we took advantage of the full sized kitchen and bbq area at meal times, and then relaxed in the quiet beautiful huge garden area with amazing views, often sitting on the hill at sunset with a beverage. Short drive to Huntlee shopping centre. Communication with host was fabulous it was easy to check in and out. Thanks Robyn and Alan for hosting us.

Comfortable dog friendly
A relaxing stay with lots of dog walks around the gardens. Suited to those who like lounging in the garden with a drink, watching the sunset. The farm fencing is only 5 wire, not mesh and wire, so best suited for dogs with a rabbit proof recall or people who will walk their dogs on lead for toileting etc. There's roos and turtles to be mindful of too.

Lovely location
The location is lovely, it's mostly secluded with lots of well-kept grounds to walk around. Very picturesque. It's close enough to the shops, restaurants and wineries without being too far - 20 minutes to anything you might need. The house itself is a bit tired and small. Any more than four people and you'd constantly be on top of each other. Four bedrooms, yes - but one (unheated) bathroom. I'd suggest the nightly charge would warrant something considerably better than this. The bedrooms do not have heating or cooling. The Old North Road is unpaved and is not in great shape. Not the landlords fault of course, we came across locals that said that it's never been this bad. If you have a 4x4, it's not an issue, but our car was bottoming out. Ultimately, you won't be disappointed because of the stunning venue, but the place is well overpriced for the facilities and comfort on offer.

Delightful spot with amazing views across the Hunter Valley
This delightful spot, with the house snuggled into the hillside and surrounded by a pretty garden and with land bryond is a rare find especially if you want to take your four legged friend. What's more the property enjoys expansive views across the Hunter Valley and it is a short drive from the area's wineries. Various covered areas around the house provide excellent locations to enjoy breakfast, lunch and sundowners. I am already looking forward to returning.

The house and property was lovely! We were in the area for a wedding. My father has limited mobility but was able to manage the small steps and ramp into the property. Communication about the property was great. There are lovely outdoor areas to enjoy, and the property is a short drive to surrounding wineries and shops.
