Hunter Valley Resort
)
Hand-Picked Hotel
Working farm, brewery and cellar door, just seven wine train stops from Sydney.
There might be better things in Australia than staying on a 100-acre working farm and brewery surrounded by vineyards, but not many. Hunter Valley Resort gives you an opportunity to live the good life in one of Australia’s best loved wine regions.
Take your pick from a good selection of spacious guest rooms and cosy cottages all of which come complete with their very own private veranda. It’s an ideal base from where to delve deeper into wine country and undertake an array of optional outdoor activities.
From Segways and horse-riding to barrel rolling races and grape pounding sessions, there’s never a dull moment down on the farm. And once you’ve had your fill of the fun, where better than the Barrel Bistro and 4 Pines Tap Room to round off the day in style.
If you’re looking for a wine tasting holiday, with a difference, Hunter Valley Resort is definitely one to remember.

Local Area
Hunter Valley in New South Wales is synonymous with grape growing and wine estate tours. It’s one of southeast Australia’s worst kept secrets with working farms and luxury lodges offering all manner of inland accommodation.
Getting there is relatively straightforward. Places like Pokolbin, in the lower valley region, can be reached in around three hours from Sydney by car. Whereas it’s just seven stops on the wine train route running from Sydney Central to Singleton station.
Once you arrive, you’ll find numerous bus tours and private transport ferrying folk from one wine estate and well-stocked farm shop to the next. Wine tasting sessions are top of the list of things to do alongside trips to artisan cheese makers and gourmet delicatessens.
However, delve a little deeper and you’ll be spoiled for choice for alternative activities. Hot air ballooning, horse riding, cooking classes, e-bike tours, spa days and golf courses are all accessible in the Hunter Valley. And if you’re looking for something, a bit more Australian, why not try barrel rolling or grape pounding to really fit in with the locals.
