Wonderful Hunter Valley Stay

The property was lovely and spotlessly clean. There was ample room for all of us (Myself, hubby, sister-in-law, father-in-law, nephew with his wife and child, and niece. We loved that the kitchen had all the basic essentials and plenty of cleaning supplies. The location is perfect - easy to get most everywhere. Great for a Hunter Valley family trip!

The property description online was extremely accurate. A well-appointed and beautiful home with 4 bathrooms which made preparations for the wedding great. A very quiet area with plenty of off-street parking, beautifully furnished, comfortable beds and pillows, an amazing fireplace area with wall heaters and bbq area. Would definitely recommend this home to stay in for couples or families - just beautiful. Thank you:)

A great stay

One of the cleanest properties I have ever stayed in. We were all very comfortable. The beds and linen were like a hotel. It was really lovely. Thank you for everything. My son learnt to play chess too!! If I was to suggest anything…… It would be a cafetière to make morning coffee!! All good though as Nineteen bar, 2 minutes walk away had good coffee!!

Perfect accommodation

Never have i been more pleased to leave a positive review for a holiday rental. This property was spacious, clean and well maintained. We were 2 families including teens with the youngest aged 15 staying for 2 nights. Lounges were comfy, beds were great, enough space for all 8 of us to gather around the outdoor table. The bonus of multiple ensuites was great. Kitchen was well equipped to cook a meal and the supplied cleaning products meant we could easily tidy up after each meal. Communication with the owners was answered promptly. Happy to recommend to others.

This property is nice, but it's important for guests to understand the environment. It's situated in a golf-oriented community where the focus is on socializing with neighbors at the clubhouse and bars.Please be aware of the strict community rules: no outdoor activity after 10 PM, no music, and lights must be turned off. This made it difficult for me to enjoy the quiet countryside retreat I was hoping for.While this wasn't the right fit for me, I think it's crucial for the host to mention these details in the listing to prevent any misunderstanding for future guests.

About the host

Hosted by Lisa Brockel

Host profile image
The owners of Second Fairway at The Vintage comprise of 2 families who love the region and wanted to spend time there in their own custom-designed comfortable home environment. This is why we created 2 master suites and fitted the upstairs bedroom with a flexible bedding configuration of up to 4 single beds. With growing kids, we needed dedicated space for adults to socialise away from the kids, and with the outdoor area, 2 living spaces and wide open spaces outside, we think we've achieved that. We hope you do too.

Why they chose this property

We always loved the Hunter Valley for the many fine wineries, restaurants, golf courses, outdoor concerts and particularly for the relaxing unhurried atmosphere which is such a change from the big city. Some years ago now, along with our friends we decided that we should create our own home-away-from-home exactly the way we would like it; where families could stay together or separately, and so we designed the house with 2 master suites, 4 bedrooms in total, and 4 bathrooms. We knew we didn’t want to share a bathroom or line up for a shower in the mornings, and we thought our guests wouldn’t either. Our priority was lifestyle and understated elegance so we made sure the outdoor deck was large enough for a setting for 8 people, plus day bed and large built-in bbq with sink and extra wok burner. It is perfect for breakfast, lunch or dinner and with outdoor ceiling fan and wall mounted heaters, the deck can be used almost all year round. Inside we provide our guests with hotel quality bedding, linens and towels, guest soaps and the staple items you’d expect to find in the pantry including salt, pepper, oil, vinegar, cling wrap and paper towels etc. There are 4 TVs in the house, all with free to air TV and the free Wifi means that everyone stays connected and the whole family can access their Netflix account.
After all these years, we still love it and we hope you do too.

What makes this property unique

Very spacious with 4 large bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, this executive holiday home is located right on the golf course, a short stroll to the clubhouse and The Vintage leisure facilities, and within a few minutes drive of wineries, restaurants and concerts.
