Hunter Valley Resort

Hunter Valley Resort spreads over a hundred acres at the corner of Hermitage Road and Mistletoe Lane, with guest rooms and cottages, a pool, tennis courts and walking trails looking to the Brokenback Range. Its own cellar door pours Hunter Farm wines among vines more than fifty years old, and a vineyard inspection runs daily at 9am. The 4 Pines brewery bar and the farm restaurant handle food and drink without leaving the grounds.

There is a lot to do on site beyond the wine: horse riding, archery, Segway tours, grape stomping, barrel rolling, a wine school and cooking classes are all booked through the resort. That range makes it a fit for families and groups who want more than a bed. Rates are not published on the site, so book direct to confirm a room and any activities.
