Very central location. Quiet. Large room. Updated decor and they’re still doing more. Insect screens on windows would be nice so guests can enjoy fresh, country air. Room gets a bit stuffy and air con or fan helps but fresh air is also nice.

Centrally located (10 mins from Crowne Plaza Bar & Grill, 7 mins to Hunter Valley Gardens) this 1 bedroom Villa (number 5 - with 2 beds - 1 in main living) is worth a stop. It’s equiped with a microwave, kettle, toasted, kitchenware and a bar fridge with not freezer. The bathroom has a huge shower head and plenty of hot water. There is aircon/heating above the main living bed also with a couch, small table and wall mounted tv. The verandah has an outdoor setting and table perfect for having some time to unwind. The views on the verandah are peaceful and there is room for your child to explore on the grass and watch the kangaroos graze in the paddocks both morning and evening. We found it very kid friendly. Would really have liked to have a coffee pod machine, and an extra warm blanket in the bedroom as the heating doesn’t reach in the bedroom and the toddler was a bit cold during the night. Worth a stay here.

Lovely stay over looking the paddocks. Our second time staying here with our daughter. However this time there weren’t any horses out the front which was a shame. Great place to stay and so close to everything.

Very pleasant stay at Forrest Hills Lodge, we were in the Hunter Valley for a wedding and it was in such a convenient location and very affordable considering other locations seemed to be raising their prices.

gorgeous view. Didn’t interact with a single person throughout my stay. Was left to my own devices. Lisa was great at communicating with me regarding my checkin. Loved the whole process. Was in the area for a wedding and this room was definitely much nicer than the hotels others were staying in.

Peaceful and relaxing stay right in the heart of the Hunter. Walking distance to wineries including Cockfighters, Harkham and a short cycle to Audrey. Our only concerns were the number of mozzies! We got savaged during our stay! Take your insect repellent and mortein! Thank you for a lovely time.

Great location and view and comfy cottages
Easy check in and such a great location with wineries within walking distance. The studio cottages are spacious and have everything you need. The verandah is perfect for evening bbqs and watching the sunset. The 2 horses on the property also come to visit in the evening for a back rub.
