The Dairy Cottage — A Rustic Hunter Valley Retreat
Looking for the ultimate Hunter Valley getaway? Welcome to The Dairy Cottage, a century-old gem brimming with rustic country charm. Once part of a working dairy, this lovingly preserved cottage now offers guests a peaceful and authentic country experience — the perfect retreat for couples wanting to unwind, recharge, and reconnect in nature.
Step inside and you’ll feel an immediate sense of warmth and nostalgia. The cottage features a cosy bedroom, tidy kitchenette, and modern bathroom, all designed for your comfort while maintaining the home’s original character. Whether you’re curling up with a good book, sipping wine on the verandah, or simply soaking up the silence, every corner of The Dairy Cottage invites you to slow down and savour the moment.
Outside, the views are simply breathtaking — rolling pasturelands, vineyards, and the majestic Brokenback Mountain Range stretch before you. You’ll often spot kangaroos lazing beneath the grand Moreton Bay fig trees, or hear the gentle sounds of the countryside as the sun sets. It’s the kind of tranquil beauty that makes the Hunter Valley so unforgettable.
Situated just off Broke Road, you’ll have easy access to the region’s restaurants, cellar doors, cafés, and boutique shops, yet still feel worlds away from the hustle and bustle. After a day of exploring, return to your private cottage to watch the stars appear over the valley — glass of wine in hand, of course.
