About this property

'Edenview' Beautiful 6brm home on Serene & Picturesque 5 Acre farm Hunter Valley

Edenview - a large house, set on a beautiful and scenic 5 acre parcel in the Hunter Valley.
Set up for entertaining - and relaxing - and is situated within a few kilometers from the foot of the Watagan Mountain Range in Quorrobolong, just 2 hours north of Sydney.
Edenview is a scenic 25 minute drive to Pokolbin and local wineries, boutique restaurants and the Hunter Valley Gardens, yet just 12 -15 mins drive to Cessnock for all your grocery needs and 20 minutes from the M1 Freeway from Sydney.
As the name suggests, the 180 degree views from Edenview are just magical, capturing the mountain scape and rolling hills of the beautiful Hunter Valley.
Edenview is our home. We love animals, so we understand that you may wish to bring your fur babies with you on your holiday. There is a totally fenced half acre dog proof yard to keep your fur babies safe and happy. We ask that your fur babies are kept outside where they can be undercover and safe and not allowed indoors at all.
We have a horse called Leo, 2 miniature ponies, one called Sonny, the other Franklin, a sheep called Coco we a resident chicken family on site where you can collect fresh eggs daily straight from the nest boxes - except for winter time when they stop laying. (We try and leave fresh laid eggs in the fridge for your use if we can as well).
There is also a cheeky cockatoo called Maxi who loves to say Hi when you arrive and ‘Bye’ when you leave.
Inside the house, we have a large fish with multiple goldfish live.
We take our dogs with us when guests have booked the property, and our 2 cats are kept locked up safely in the large shed on the property with plenty of food and water.

WINE TOURS
Edenview have teamed up with some of the best Wine Tour companies in the Hunter Valley.
There are both half day and full day wine tours available, plus shuttle bus companies that will do transfers to concerts or local restaurants. Rover Buses pick up from around the corner at a very reasonable price, and most chartered buses you arrange will pick up and drop off at Edenview, so no need to haggle about who is the designated driver! :)

Edenview caters for family groups to larger 'friend' groups!

Edenview is set up to cater for large groups or families.
SLEEPING ARRANGEMENTS
Bed 1 - King Bed and ensuite
Bed 2 & 3 - Queen Bed
Bed 4 - Extra large room (size of a triple car garage) with Queen Bed, Ensuite, 1 Double bed and a Single bed.
Bed 5 & 6 A Queen bed in each
Plus 1 Double Futon Sofa lounge/bed in the Family Room.

That means it can sleep 15 guests in beds, and 17 in total if the double sofa bed is utilized.
The main bathroom and main ensuite have a double sink and over-sized shower recess, and the extra large Bedroom 4 also has an Ensuite.

PRICING

Standard weekday (minimum 2 night stay) start from $950 per night for up to 10 guests. Additional guests charged at $50 per guest per night. Babies/toddlers in portacots 2 years and under are free. We also have a normal baby cot for your use. You will need to bring linen for the all cots.
There is a Security Bond of $700 which of course is fully refundable after 7 days of check out, subject to our T&C’s being met.

NOTE: Charges are based on the bedding required. If you have only 6 guests the first night, but 12 guests the second night, the rate will be calculated on the 12 guests i.e how much bedding is required for the whole stay.

Special Event and Long Weekend rates (minimum 2 night stay) start from $1000 per night for 8 guests. Additional guests charged at $70 per adult or child per night. Babies/toddlers 2 years and under in portacots are free.

There are 3 spacious and comfortable living areas:
TV ROOM - large plasma TV, Foxtel, along with a great selection of DVD's, so if the weather isn't so great, you will still have plenty of indoor entertainment to choose from.
FAMILY ROOM - has an extendable dining table and a slow combustion wood fire, perfect for that cosy meal on a cold winter's night. The futon lounge in the family room is perfect to sit on and just take in the amazing early morning views, as you enjoy your cuppa.
PIANO ROOM - which is probably supposed to be called a formal living room, has a lovely old piano, an extra comfy lounge and that special spot to enjoy a family sing-along with others, or a get away on your own with a great book.

Our large, well equipped gourmet kitchen has stainless steel appliances, gas cook top and a fridge with built in filtered cold water/ice dispenser. Plus the view from the kitchen is stunning!! (Makes you actually doing the dishes! :)

Outside the family room, there is a 10 seater BBQ table underneath a large covered pergola area. A 'Firebox' pizza maker (which is used in the BBQ), and a fire pit for a winter bonfire means that a weekend away has endless capabilities for a creating a wonderful and memorable holiday. We also have spare outdoor chairs.

NOTE: Outdoor security cameras are installed in the driveway area only.

CONCLUSION:
Once you have experienced the peace, beauty of nature, and solitude of Edenview, you may not want to venture anywhere else. But if you did decide to explore more of this beautiful centre of the universe, the hub of the Hunter Valley is not far away. Wineries, outdoor concerts (in season) and boutique restaurants are all within an easy scenic driving distance away. We can even advise you on how to organize a charter bus to take you to and from a concert if enough notice is given prior to a concert.

Perfect place for an escape
My friends and I came up for my 21st birthday and made the best memories, thanks to Jill and her family for their accommodation. The property and the beautiful animals made the occasion so much special and we cannot wait to return sometime in the future!

Perfect
Edenview was perfectly suited to our needs. A beautiful home for a weekend away. We had a wonderful relaxing long weekend celebrating my husbands 50th birthday with family & our fur baby absolutely loved running around in the fully enclosed yard. Highly recommend! Jill is very accommodating & always quick to respond to questions. Having owned a cockatoo ourselves, it was lovely to be greeted by the very friendly Maxi anytime we went near his cage. For anyone looking for a pet friendly getaway....this does not disappoint.

Amazing property with friendly animals (the horses walk up to you for a pat). My 3 year old had the best time and is still talking about it. Everything was as advertised the facilities were well thought out with general living spaces for 14 people. Jill was a awesome host and we cant wait to visit again.

Great place with a beautiful view
Jill’s place was lovely and absolutely perfect for a girls weekend away. We had a picnic outside on the grass and we’re lucky enough to witness beautiful sunsets both nights we were there. Jill helped us out when planning our trip and gave some good suggestions for places to eat in town. Would definitely recommend this place to people looking for a relaxing weekend away :)

About the host

Hosted by Jill Wright

Host profile image
This is a photo of Craig and me at a Fleetwood Mac concert at Hope Estate 2017.
We have been to many concerts, and just love the open air and magical atmosphere of these venues.

Why they chose this property

Craig and I moved from Sydney (Cattai) and built Edenview back in 2006. We have 5 beautiful children, and wanted to be closer to my aging mother (now deceased) who lived not far away. We purchased the 5 acre property with nothing on it, not even a tree, just a cow paddock. We built the house so that each child would have their own room, plus an extra room for guests. The eldest had already fled the nest when we built but we wanted to ensure she had somewhere to come home to if required. We love living here, and when the last of our children left home just recently, we were faced with the decision of downsizing or letting others enjoy what we have, whilst allowing us to get out and about more. It has proved to be more successful than we ever imagined, and are overwhelmed by guests reviews of our property.
Edenview is not an ostentatious property. It is just the perfect, down to earth 'home away from home' that we feel guests can come to, to relax, unwind and just de-stress. If you do decide to book, we truly hope you enjoy your stay at our beautiful piece of the Hunter Valley.

What makes this property unique

We fell in love with the view that surrounds our property. To us, it's God's country. Each morning when I wake up, I sit on the sofa lounge with my cup of tea and just admire the mountain surrounds and the rolling hills. It seems to change every day. Sometimes, mist forms like clouds that tumble over the mountain tops like breaking waves. Other days it drifts lazily through the valley. The enjoyment of seeing the occasional mob of kangaroos as they continue on their nomadic journey, and the varied native bird life is such a pleasure to animals lovers such as us. Edenview has been put together with love, family memories and peaceful moments. We hope that our guests get to feel a part of Edenview and come away with a little bit of its treasure captured in their hearts.
