We stayed at the Carriages to escape the city just after New Year. We were warmly greeted on arrival and as it was our first visit to the Hunter, the member of staff at reception really took the time to show us local guidebooks and even recommended and called a nearby restaurant to book us in for our first evening...

Between Christmas and New Year we spent a night at the Carriages. It's a great place with well decorated rooms and it's set in a very peaceful environment neighbouring a forest on one side and the vineyard on the other. The pepper tree cellar door is in walking distance and sells great wines. If you're looking for a nice and... More

We have stayed at the Carriages a couple of times, would have been more but it's so often booked out! This is a great little secret for those who know it. We can't get enough. Both times we have booked in the Main House, a Verandah Suite, and ended up in the same room. The rooms are quaint and old-world,... More

We booked two rooms with family for a concert at a near by winery The Gable Room was very spacious with a cute little balcony with table and chairs over looking a charming garden. The bed was extremely comfortable and everything worked well especially the shower which had great water pressure!. The only aspect of the Gable room to consider... More

Wonderful place to stay. Breakfast was delivered each morning in a lovely hamper so you could eat whenever you felt like it. Walking distance to Roberts restaurant (which is literally next door) so don't have to worry about driving after dinner. The rooms were lovely and the fireplace made it so romatic. Looking forward to coming back for sure. More

The Carriages is simply wonderful. My fiancé and I stayed in the Gable suite and had the most beautiful time.

Our room had it's own fireplace with and a small balcony. Each morning we woke up... More

Our stay at Carriages was lovely, the room was homely and cosy. We spent the evening by the fire, and hours on the sunny verandah in the morning enjoying the delicious breakfast hamper. Wish we could have stayed all week. Definitely going back. More

Wow, this was the most romantic weekend ever!!! We have stayed at alot of different places, but this was by the far the most romantic. The fireplace was fantastic. Turned off the lights, and chatted for hours in front of it. There are so many beautiful wineries, cheese and cholocate shops! We didn't even go out of dinner. Sat by... More

Great room with an open fireplace. Didn't feel like a hotel room, much more like a welcoming space. Morning sun streamed in through the french doors. Yummy breakfast basket delivered to the door. Tennis court and pool close by, but a bit cold to use at the moment. Our host Mel was very helpful in finding close by restaurants when... More
