Tranquillity amongst the vines
The picturesque view from the verandah made me feel like I was in a vineyard in Italy. Private and quiet location with plenty of room for our 4 families to relax and have fun together. The pool was superb and the bbq area a great feature. I loved the fully stocked kitchen and pool/family room.

A beautiful escape in the Hunter Valley
A beautiful estate filled with a good balance of on site activities including a swim in the pool, q game of billiards or a match of tennis. Not only was the house accommodating and spacious, it is in great location near local breweries, wineries and Cafe to enjoy what the whole area has to offer. If you are looking to enjoy and experience the area with a large and beautiful estate to stay, do not look past this property.

The property was in a stunning location, with a beautiful Cellar Door. Unfortunately, the tennis court was not fit for purpose, which was extremely disappointing.

The Perfect Getaway
We came to Gabriel’s Paddocks for my Husbands 50th Birthday celebrations. There was 12 of us and there was plenty of room. Loved the pool table room as well as the pool and having no neighbours was a bonus, it felt very relaxing looking out onto the vines. Close to the centre of Pokolbin and The Vintage Golf Course makes this a great all rounder. We all had a fantastic time at Gabriel’s Paddocks.
