About this property

Stewart Cottage - vineyards getaway

Stewart cottage is one of five cottages at Glen Ayr Cottages, situated in the heart of Pokolbin vineyards, five minutes' drive from Hunter Gardens, concert venues, and many wineries. Stewart is a comfortable three-bedroom cottage with three queen beds; the bedrooms are en-suite. It has a large living and kitchen area with a fireplace and air-conditioning. The kitchen is fully equipped, and all linen is provided.

The cottage is kept meticulously clean by our long-term housekeeper, who uses alcohol-based cleaning agents.

Stewart cottage is an hour and forty-five minutes' drive from the beginning of the M1 Motorway (Pacific Highway) at Wahroonga, and an hour from the centre of Newcastle. Despite being within five minutes' drive of many large wineries, it is quiet and secluded. It has views of the Brokenback Range from its verandah, and is within walking distance of neighbouring Audrey Wilkinson's vineyard. Nearby attractions include wine tasting, fine restaurants, galleries, horse riding, hot air ballooning, bushwalking, golfing and sky diving.

There is also a great variety of birds and other wildlife in the surrounding area, including kangaroos and frill-necked lizards.

Stewart is comfortable and clean. A minimum of two guests is required for weekend bookings.

We charge per guest.

If you wish to make a booking, we ask for a twenty percent deposit.

Please contact the owners if you have any enquiries.

Spacious house but not very comfortable
We stayed a night here as a family group after attending a wedding nearby. First the positives... The house (Stewart Cottage) is spacious, and having an ensuite in every room was definitely good! The location is perfect - tucked away near Tulloch & Audrey Wilkinson wineries, very close to Hunter Valley Gardens. Downside was that it was very musty-smelling, all the bed linens and blankets were old and musty, the rooms were very cobwebby and in need of a thorough clean, and the windows screens were all quite loose & old which meant they rattled all night long in the wind. It's also a shame that there was no communication from the hosts at booking stage or afterwards about the check-in and check-out process. It wouldn't take much to send an email or something just confirming what to do on arrival. The information on Stayz said "your host hasn't provided any information yet about your arrival process". We had to call a few times the morning of arrival to get hold of someone and work out where we were supposed to go.

Tranquil comfort
This little cottage is in the perfect spot. We all couldn’t believe how beautiful and quiet it was. So spacious, and large en-suites for all. Property was immaculately clean and tidy, comfortable beds and great amenities. Beautiful outlook on the deck even having return questions and remarks from friends on my socials where I posted a short clip of the deck view.

Perfect location
We stayed at the property for a wedding. The place was excellent from the ease of check in and communication with the owner through to the closeness of everything in the Hunter Valley. Will definitely stay here again.

The place was basic and in need of a refurb. Also, it was not especially clean.
