iyla Estate - Your exclusive Vineyard & Cottage stay @ Pokolbin, Hunter Valley!

Welcome to your exclusive Hunter Valley escape — a luxurious, privately hosted cottage nestled on a 28-acre working vineyard in the heart of Pokolbin. With no shared spaces and an exclusive stay on the estate, enjoy stunning vineyard and mountain views, kangaroos grazing, and ducks paddling in the dam. Personally managed by owners, the cottage has 4 bedrooms (2 ensuites) and is well-equipped for a relaxing stay. Centrally located, you’re close to wineries, restaurants, wedding & concert venues – the perfect base for your Hunter Valley getaway.

Unlike properties managed by agencies or booking platforms, this is a truly private stay with no shared spaces and direct contact with the owners for a more personal, seamless experience. Expect warm hospitality, generous spaces, and serene surroundings.

Thoughtfully designed for comfort and relaxation, the home features four spacious king bedrooms — two upstairs with private ensuites and Juliette balconies overlooking the vines, and two downstairs with tranquil views of the dam. A third large bathroom downstairs includes both a bath and shower, perfect for groups and families.

Enjoy open-plan living with sweeping views of the Brokenback Ranges, the dam, and surrounding vines. The generous lounge comfortably seats 8 and features a cozy slow-combustion fireplace (BYO firewood). There’s also indoor dining for 8, and an outdoor entertaining area with dining and a Weber BBQ — ideal for relaxed meals overlooking the vineyard.

The fully equipped gourmet kitchen includes a stove, oven, microwave, dishwasher, coffee machine (with pods), refrigerator, kettle, and a full set of utensils and cookware, making self-catering effortless.

Additional comforts include:

Ducted air-conditioning
NBN wireless internet
55” Smart TV and Google Home
Board games and books
Fresh linen, towels, and toiletries
Washing machine
Portable cot and high chair (on request)

Professionally deep-cleaned and sanitised before every stay, this peaceful and private retreat is loved by guests for its immaculate presentation, spacious layout, and peaceful surroundings.
