I had some friends visiting from the USA and wanted to show them the best of what Australia had to offer. I hadn't been to the Hunter Valley before and so I did a lot of research on accommodation before choosing Casuarina Cottage at the Billabong Moon, Pokolbin - a 2 bedroom cottage set amongst Casuarina trees. The Billabong Moon... More

I know all of the accommodation in the Hunter Valley pretty well because I live on Hermitage Road in Pokolbin, which is where much of the accommodation for the wine tourists is located. I know a lot of the people who have accommodation and have either seen their properties or have heard through the grapevine what they are like. My... More

I had the pleasure of staying at Sunset Ridge for the weekend. From the moment I drove up the driveway I knew it would be something special.

We stayed in the "Studio" cottage which is one of five different cottages on the property. Each cottage is quite apart from the other offering a feeling of privacy and seclusion. We loved every minute of our stay here. The cottage is a bit bohemian, a bit earthy and has all you need for a few days stay. Everything was... More

We stayed in the Billabong cabin for the October long weekend and would never stay anywhere else in the Hunter from hereon in. Seems this place is a hidden gem and it's such a shame I didn't know about it earlier. Each cabin, has complete privacy and is surrounded by nature - distributed sparsely around the 25 acre property. Ours,... More
