A great place to work and play

We came for a golf tournament and I had to work while he was playing. It was a great place to stay with good beds and cooking facilities meaning we were well fed and rested. The wifi was good and allowed me to work as if I was in the office.

Amazing for wine country tours or just relaxing at home

This property is fantastic for a family or group of friends. We travelled with 3 couples and there was plenty of room for everyone. Bedrooms are comfy and spacious. Living room easily fit 6 adults on the couches, and backyard was great for afternoon drinks. Kitchen fully stocked with everything to prepare a meal. Couldn't find one fault with the property. Marcus & Helen were exceptional hosts. Will definitely be back.

Highly recommended

Photos didn't do this property justice. It exceeded expectation. A very clean, well equipped and well thought out property. It has everything that we needed for a home away from home kinda long weekend. Parking was easy and the location was convenient. The spacious living area is inviting and perfect for a quiet night in for adults and children. The host was friendly and responsive with all enquiries. We felt welcomed and valued. It was a pleasant experience overall. Thank you once again Marcus and Helen.

Arriving at this property was a welcome surprise and our expectations were exceeded. The place was lovely and we had a very comfortable stay (family of 4). The house was cleaned spotless inside and the quality dishwasher, appliances and towels made our stay all that more comfortable. We also enjoyed the bottle of wine on arrival - thank you! (We visited the winery and bought more). The outdoor gazebo was a lovely place to sit and relax with some candles once the kids had gone to bed. We hope to visit again some day and are happy that the winery cancelled our accomodation at short notice or we wouldn't of had the chance to discover your place. Well done guys.

Lovely property however was not clean when we arrived

This was a great little property and perfect for our intended purposes. The furniture and appliances were all of a great standard. The property was old however was renovated lovely. Unfortunately the cleanliness of the property was lacking. When we arrived we noticed that the towels were all hanging wet in the bathrooms. We were not sure if they were clean of left over from the previous tenants. Also one of the beds appeared to have been slept in and the doona just pulled up. The floor had not been swept as there was popcorn and olive pits on the floor. The bathroom mirrors had splash marks on them and the bathroom counters and dining table had not been wiped at all. The coffee machine still had coffee from the previous tenants. This is not a comprehensive list. We kept noticing things that had not been cleaned the entire stay.

It has got everything that we needed to enjoy our time and We are 💯 % sure that any other residents would enjoy too. Its clean and beautiful house.Please do not think twice to book this house, just book it you will fall in love. Bbq candle light dinner was the best part.

About the host

A little about us..

We are both from the UK and have lived in Sydney for almost a decade. Marcus is from a small town on the English Welsh boarder called Shrewsbury, and Helen is from Belfast in Northern Ireland. We have always loved wine (mainly drinking it), but the Hunter means much more than that for us. It is a place where we feel totally relaxed, where we can escape the hustle and bustle of Sydney and enjoy a slower pace of life - We even got married in a winery! It’s a place where good food, good wine and good friends matter more than anything else.

After many trips here, we finally decided to take the plunge and start an Airbnb of our own. As soon as we saw Hunter’s Hideaway we fell in love with the place. After much hard work, we are excited to share it with you. We hope you feel completely comfortable here and enjoy it as much as we do.

Why they chose this property

Simple.. We fell in love with it and its location when we saw it and couldn't wait to unleash its potential! Hopefully you agree

What makes this property unique

Hunters Hideaway is perfect for families and/ or friends who want to have a home away from home in the Hunter Valley. Close to the wineries and all essential amenities.
