Guest access
The entire property is for your exclusive use during your stay.
Lovedale is a relaxed neighbourhood east of Pokolbin, and the perfect spot to get that Insta shot of Skippy among the vines as the rambling vineyards and pastures are full of mobs of kangaroos and wallabies.
The winding country roads are lined with tasty eateries and small, boutique cellar doors, so you can meet the owners and enjoy a more personal experience, while tasting local wines and gourmet snacks.
Lovedale is also home to many artists so no surprise there are galleries to explore, plus you can go horseriding, hot-air ballooning or take a cooking class with a local chef.
It’s no wonder it’s a favourite wedding destination, with couples getting hitched in cute chapels or outdoors among the vines.
Both of our next door neighbours are wineries - so leave the car and go for tastings! 5-7 minute drive to the best restaurants in the area, and many of the other Hunter Valley attractions.
Our house is perfect for family and friends get togethers of all sorts!
