Hunter valley stays

Rooms are very small, very clean. Beds size is great but hard and because it is two beds next to each other with no topper to cover the middle part it is uncomfortable. Overall stay for the price is it not bad. It is not to far to travel it you visiting the wine country.

Arriving from Newcastle by taxi, we were disappointed to find the dining room and bar were still closed for the Christmas break and had to get local taxi into Kurri Kurri. Cleaning ladies were really helpful with info on courtesy buses. Beautiful, quiet place to stay.

The venue is so quiet away from everything. I liked the way the Rover coach literally picked us up from M Block. The vineyards looked great.
