We loved this place. BJ made us feel welcome, suggesting somewhere great for dinner, offering us a taste of the wine from his vineyard, and suggesting we have a stroll across the nearby field to see kangeroos which we had yet to see on our holiday. The rooms are lovely and full of character, we loved sitting out on the... more

We booked the Carriages for a quiet, relaxing retreat over the New Year. We booked into our room which was quite expensive at $295 per night we thought as the room was quite basic perhaps 2/3 star. We were told by the lady who booked us in that a large group would be holding a party/ BBQ and she hoped... more

Recently enjoyed staying at this relaxing country guesthouse that is centrally located but tucked away from the main road with only the sounds of birds as you wake in the morning. Room was spacious, private, very comfortable and spotlessly clean but best of all was the breakfast delivered to your door each morning - freshly baked muffins, beautiful seasonal fruits... more

This was a return visit to the Carriages Country House after living overseas for the past four years and I was not disappointed. I had wonderful memories of drinking a glass of red by the fire in our room and relaxing over breakfast the next morning on the verandah, but this 2 day stay was in the heat of summer,... more

Had a fabulous stay here on the weekend. From the moment we arrived everything was perfect - extremely welcoming owners, quaint and private setting, very comfortable room, all the facilities we needed, we loved the breakfast basket that was delivered to our door each morning!! And the location was ideal - right in the heart of Pokolbin!! Would definitely recommend... more

In response to the previous negative review: we were fortunate enough to book the property after failure to confirm by the previous reservation. From our perspective, when we emailed the management with an enquiry for this weekend we were told that the property was fully booked with the possible exception of one room for which the owners had received an... more

This is a strange review to have to write but I feel compelled as I have never been treated with such poor customer service before. My partner and I never actually got the opportunity to stay at the carriages as they took the liberty of cancelling our booking without actually communicating with us in person or email. We made the... more

We stayed for one night at The Carriages Country House in the verandah room. The room was exactly as it had been listed on the website we booked it on, a pretty corner room with a verandah over looking beautiful gardens. The house was quiet and peaceful. We enjoyed an evening on our verandah with wine and cheese. The breakfast... more

my Husband and I have just returned from a long weekend in the Hunter Valley and a two night stay at The carriages Country House. We have nothing but praise for this beautiful property. We stayed in a Verandah suite, room 2. The rooms are rustically beautiful with wooden floors and furniture. There is an open fireplace and all firewood... more

My girlfriend and I stayed at the Carriages Gatehouse this weekend and had an amazing time. We had the Gatehouse to ourselves for most of the weekend which meant that we had the beautiful fireplace roaring. We were also able to walk to the best winery and restaurant in the Hunter a couple of hundred meters away which was spectacular... more
