It was beautiful and quiet and even though I booked for the wrong 2 nights, I was able to be accommodated with no trouble. Lovely, cheerful hosts. Would recommend for proximity to places in Pokolbin like Hope Estate, wineries, markets.

Needs a little work
While the location and access to everything we needed was great and the surroundings and peace and quiet were what we were looking for, there were a couple of things that disappointed us. a) BE AWARE The hot water has no (or a faulty) max temp setting so my son scalded himself in the shower. The water was so close to boiling I couldn't wash the dishes without a 50/50 cold water mix and is a serious safety risk. b) The boards on the front step were loose and very difficult to walk on without tripping especially in thongs. c) While a fry-pan was provided, we chose not to use it a second time as the non-stick coating was peeling and ended up in our food d) the curtains do not cover the windows or keep any of the heat out. While I admit it was a very hot weekend when we stayed the air conditioner struggled to keep the property cool with the sun streaming into the rooms. We ended up hanging a blanket over the windows just to try and keep the heat out. The variety of wildlife, the ability to roam around the property and a swimming pool did make it a fun place for the kids. A little maintenance could make it a great family location.

Loved the views and the cottage. Fairly private but close to lots of wineries and cafes and restaurants in Pokolbin. Barbeque and alfresco seating on the deck was great. The only downside was the bed was a little hard, and also there's a sign saying not to drink the water unless its been boiled which we didnt see until day 2. Overall a good stay though.

Hi, Thank you for your review and we are glad you enjoyed your stay. It is ok if you drink the water as our tanks are treated but as with all tank water they have a different taste than town water so we just put the sign up so that guests don't say the water taste funny.

Cottages so quiet and peaceful
If you are looking to escape the hussle and bussle and noise of other guests, I can highly recommend Twin Trees Cottages. They are close to the wineries and restaurants but tucked away in a beautiful rural setting which is so quiet and peaceful. Not to mention the bird life and kangaroos make you feel you are a million miles away. So close to The Convent and Circa 1876 that we could walk for a beautiful meal, wine tasting and delicious coffee. This is now our second time staying at the cottages and definitely won't be our last.

The cottage was exactly what we needed for our time in the Hunter, and is fully equipped. The breakfast basket is a great addition. We inadvertently booked 2 nights and the manager and owner we unbelievably accommodating with our need to check out early. Too many hotels want to sting you for all they can get. This was customer service at it's best. Thanks again!

Quiet and peaceful but...
The cottages are located in a quiet and peaceful area within close proximity to Cessnock. Having breakfast supplied for the first morning was appreciated. However, I feel cottages are overpriced, out-dated and more attention needed to be paid to the cleanliness. From the website description, I was expecting the cottage to be situated within a vineyard but this was not the case.

The place is rundown. The furniture is old and we were able to use the fire place. The couch was uncomfortable and dirty. The whole place needs a makeover as the furniture seems to be there since lTe 80's. It is advertised as having a vineyard and olive grove however there were no vines and the olive grove looks like it is neglected. The location is great. It is close to 2 fantastic vineyards which both contain top accommodation, fantastic restaurants and it is 5 min drive from Hunter Valley Gardens.

Nice cottage perfect for 4 pax
It is was a lovely cottage very warm and coisy with a real country feel. We were 4 girls and it was lovely and roomy. Everything was provided including bread, eggs, jam etc to make our stay even more pleasant. I would recommend this cottage for couples and singles as it would fulfill everyone's needs

Neat cottage in a brilliant location
This place was great. We were looking for a place with a full kitchen and a little living space and this was exactly what we wanted. It was quiet and secluded with air conditioning, and it's always nice to have a separate lounge room to the bed. The cottage was ageing a little but it was very comfortable and the location was simply fantastic! The service was also very good and we enjoyed the get away. We would definitely come back :)

Tranquil quiet setting in the heart of the Hunter
I've decided not to stay anywhere else in the Hunter Valley! Twin Trees is close to a number of good vineyards yet quiet and tranquil (we saw kangaroos hopping past our kitchen window!!) The cottages are far apart so it's very private and although the accommodation isn't high quality, it's well equiped, clean and comfortable. Check in was easy and staff friendly. I'd definitely recommend!

Cottage stay in the Hunter Valley
Lovely cottage in beautiful natural surroundings. We were there during the worst storm the area had seen for years. The cottage was extremely well built and fitted out with everything you could possibly need. We felt safe & comfortable at all times. Would definitely stay there again.

Very glad that we chose to stay in his cottage. It's so much more comfortable than a hotel room. Its spacious, it has everything. We even had egg and toast that were provided by the cottage owner! Location is excellent as well. It is central to everything you can have. Highly recommended!

Fantastic quiet getaway!
This is my new favourite place to stay in the Hunter Valley. The cabins are not too far away from each other, but far enough that you forget anyone else is even there. The location is quiet and peaceful, great to take a quick walk around of a morning or evening. Additional platters were a little on the expensive side, but its nice not to have to organise everything yourself. We'll be back!
