Thank you

The property is perfectly positioned to explore the whole area. Lovely setting and fine attention to detail from the owners. We wanted something that didn't feel like a hotel room. The gables ticked this box.

I needed a relaxing place to stay to unwind in a short period of time. The Carriages were exactly what I needed! A tranquil setting away from the hustle and bustle, the suite my best friend and I stayed in was private, clean, and oh so quaint. We relaxed, took a dip in the salt water pool, and were able to eat a nice dinner only minutes away. The staff and owners were absolutely lovely! We awoke to an overflowing basket of breakfast goodies outside our door--even down to a freshly squeezed orange juice! There was never a moment we did not love our stay! My friend and I plan to return with not only our families, but friends as well. A definite small business worth supporting. Very highly recommended!

Charming and peaceful vineyard stay

Pros: The old-style country hospitality, and limited number of people on the property.

Cons: The presence of an outdoor firepit for the warmer months.

Location: Plenty of fantastic restaurants nearby! Make sure you book ahead.

We stayed in the gatehouse, an old cottage in the middle of the vineyard. Despite it being a busy weekend in the Hunter, we definitely felt alone at The Carriages. The property offers the perfect mix of privacy and proximity to some of the best the Valley has to offer. The wines grown on the property are excellent, the comforts are numerous and the sights are endless. Being set back a couple of kilometres from the main highway, you get peace and quiet in abundance, surrounded by nature. Lovely place to stay.

Beautiful settings, clean rooms and the owners are very friendly. Absolutely love their wines. Continental breakfast served to your door each morning is lovely. Fireplace in the room is a great bonus. Central to everything the hunter valley has to offer. Loved it.

Luxurious & Relaxing

Peaceful, quiet, picturesque, relaxing. Close to all the Hunter Valley has to offer. Ideal for concerts at the local wineries.
