Great get away

17 of us headed for a Christmas get a way and we all had a fab time. The house was perfect, lots of space and different areas and lots of land around. Very close to the wineries too! Thanks for hosting us David!

Excellent stay!

We had a wonderful weekend away at Lovedale Lodge, enjoying a concert at Bimbadgedn Winery. The accommodation was so clean and everything was there that we needed. David looked after us and nothing was a problem. This is an awesome place for a large group and we will definitely be back again. It was already my second visit. I’ll be back for a third! Thanks again, David.

Response from VrboOwner on 1 August 2023
You showed complete contempt for our property including smashing the glass table top on our 8 seater dining setting and even throwing some of our linen in the garbage. You also showed complete contempt for the national bushfire crisis by lighting an outside fire despite being reminded of the total fire ban. Also other items have been damaged or have gone missing and accordingly you are banned from our property forever.

Family getaway for people aged 14-83!

We all had a wonderful week at Lovedale. There was enough space for us all to have our own space. We had busy teenagers, uni students who had to study and octogenarians who had to nap and all were able to do what we had to do! Thanks Faya. We will be back. Ilona.

Perfect for large groups

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Lovedale Lodge. The property was very spacious, and our group of 18 adults had plenty of room. The new renovations added a lovely touch to the place. The large living and dining areas , as well as the abundance of cutlery, plates and utensils were ideal for the group. Would definitely recommend staying here, Faya is a lovely host who was very accommodating.

The stay of a lifetime

The property is unbelievable - seriously couldn’t recommend a better property for a large group. There are 3x quarters within the house and so much room for large groups to congregate together or go off for their own space. We stayed for my 30th birthday with a group of 24 people and never once felt overwhelmed with the amount of guests all in one place as it’s so spacious. We stayed in winter but the fire pit ensured we could still say outside, sit around the fire and enjoy the outdoors. It would be amazing too in the summer, as the pool looked great! The property itself is huge and there is so much grass room for activities. Faya (the host) is without a doubt the most accomodating and friendly host I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. He accommodated every request we had and any questions were answered promptly. Nothing was too hard for Faya and to put it simply, he is just a legend. Overall the weekend away at the property for my 30th was one of the best of my life - we all had so, so much fun. I truly cannot recommend it enough for large groups - if you are staying in the Hunter with a massive bunch of friends and family there is simply nowhere better to stay.

Amazing place- Great location

Amazing place, has all you need to cater for a larger group. Amazing rooms, beds, couches , kitchens cant fault it. Faya has added a great touch to the place. Great location close to wineries but the property is bigger enough you feel in the middle of the bush. Have stayed 4 times and would stay again.

Great Enjoyable Stay!

David (the owner) takes pains in looking after the property personally. He would have a much better property if he could organize wifi at the property. Overall the property is good for a family and friends group as there is a lot of place for outdoor activity and swimming in the pool.
