About this property

Dairy Farm Cottage..

Self-contained, fully-equipped cottage with open fire and swimming pool, located in the hills above Mt View. All the wonderful facilities the Hunter Valley has to offer are at your fingertips including boutique wineries.

Dairy Farm Cottage is your home away from home. Isolated enough for your privacy. Sheets and bath towels are included. We have essential kitchen supplies like oil, salt and pepper, flours, vinegar, baking paper, cling wrap etc. We supply some tea, coffee pods for the coffee maker and wood for the fire in winter. We also have board games, books and jigsaws for your entertainment. All you need to do is bring fresh food and drinks and you dont need to leave the house. Major supermarkets are only 10 minutes away in Cessnock.

You have the entire house and pool to yourselves and we have 3 acres you can enjoy. You can see distant neighbours but you cant hear them! Please note the pool is a walk up the hill from the house.

Dairy Farm Cottage is in a rural setting, so wildlife, including birds, reptiles, insects and sometimes mammals are part of the experience. We have had visiting echidnas, wombats, kangaroos, frogs, and even a wandering goat! Wifi has now been installed. Mobile phone reception is limited.

The cottage is over 100 years old and has loads of character. While we have all the modern conveniences and the rooms are always cleaned for your visit, you will not get the feel of a brand new place. It's also situated on a dirt road, so its impossible to keep the outside spotless.

Rustic relaxing weekend adventure
Family birthday celebration in a relaxed atmosphere close to one of our favourite Hunter Valley restaurants. Pool and table tennis enjoyed by the younger adults. All in a great rustic, quiet and relaxed county setting with the chimes of bellbirds in the distance across the valley.

Cute cottage with amazing views
The location was idyllic: No neighbours, quiet, beautiful 360 degree views. Evening bbqs on the lovely deck, cooling off in the pool, and drinking the local wines. Didn’t want to leave!

Relax!
Dairy Farm Cottage is a cute, cosy house with everything we needed for a fun, relaxing weekend with friends. We loved the well-stocked pantry and the complimentary wine and chocs and also the pot belly stove on the back deck. The cows came for a chat too! It's very close to Pokolbin but the rolling hills make you feel like you're miles from anywhere. I'm hoping we can stay here again!

Cosy Cottage with breathtaking views
Dairy Farm Cottage was just what our family needed for a weekend. We escaped the business of the city for a farm style stay with all the luxuries. Such a beautiful part of the world with incredible views of the mountains. The fireplace was so cosy and the owners went above and beyond to cater for us. The location of the cottage is minutes away from the Hunter Valley wineries which was great. Highly recommend Dairy Farm Cottage for those who need some time to recharge and relax.

Cant fault Dairy Farm Cottage
We hoped to get away from the suburbs to somewhere quiet - Dairy Farm was perfect. Only about 10 mins out of town but still so quiet. Sunsets were amazing. Nights by the fireplace. Everything you need is there. Very family friendly

Peaceful Location
We throughly enjoyed our stay at Dairy Farm Cottage, gorgeous views, cosy cottage, we were surprised at all the small details that had been thought about to make the stay a relaxing one. The kids loved the pool and toasting marshmallows on the back deck. We will definitely be back.

Gorgeous, cosy cottage
A lovely cottage set in the Hunter Valley to escape and get away from the hustle and bustle of busy day to day life. We really enjoyed our 3 night stay away at Dairy Farm Cottage and would love to return again in the future. The kids loved the pool, the views and setting of the cottage are so peaceful and gorgeous. Everything is well set up with classic cottage furnishings. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

The cottage is absolutely gorgeous and has everything we were hoping for and more and is just a short drive to nearby wineries and restaurants. The view from the pool is absolute perfection. It was such a peaceful and relaxed long weekend. We will definitely be back.

A great spot to escape!
My husband and two little girls had a very cosy weekend here. With the open fire inside and the outdoor chimera outside and lots of space for the kids to run! What a sweet old house. loved buying up yummy supplies and settling in. Would be a great spot in the warmer weather by the pool. Bistro Molines was treat for dinner too.

We loved our stay at Cadair cottage and would thoroughly recommend it. It had everything you need and the spa just topped it off! Watching the sunsets over the farms were so relaxing. Thanks for having us!

Great original cottage
Had a fabulous time at Dairy Farm Cottage. It is an original cottage that is well furnished and fitted out. The fire place was just perfect. We have previously stayed in more heavily populated accomodation (more hotel/town house style at the Golf Courses) but this was a very quintessential Hunter experience. Located close to Bistro Molines which suited us perfectlyfor a lovely long lunch. Short drive to some great vineyards eg Petersons Winery (not champ house) and Audrey Wilkinson. Overall a great stay.
