Your Stay At Pokolbin Mountain Estate

This private, architect-designed retreat blends modern luxury with the tranquillity of nature, offering some of the most expansive panoramic views in the Hunter Valley. Floor-to-ceiling glass captures breath-taking mountain vistas, creating a seamless connection between the indoors and the surrounding landscape.

Two king-bed suites each feature a luxurious ensuite and walk-through wardrobe — perfect for couples seeking comfort, privacy, and a truly romantic weekend retreat.

The spa-style bathrooms include freestanding soaking tubs and oversized rain showers positioned to frame the stunning views.

The open-plan living and dining area flows into a gourmet designer kitchen with premium appliances and a full laundry, making the home ideal for both short escapes and longer stays. It’s also the perfect setting for a small family get-together, offering both space and intimacy in equal measure.

Step onto the expansive entertainer’s deck with lounge seating and bar area — the perfect place to enjoy sunset drinks overlooking the valley. Remote-controlled blinds and zoned air conditioning ensure effortless comfort year-round.

Gather around the outdoor gas BBQ or the fire pit (subject to fire ban restrictions) and unwind under a canopy of stars — the perfect end to a day in the Hunter.

“Pokolbin Mountain Estate” is set on 11 hectares (approximately 30 acres) of peaceful private hillside countryside. This retreat offers complete privacy and space to unwind. Guests enjoy a secure gated entry, private driveway, and easy self check-in via key safe.

The home is equipped with ultra-fast Starlink internet (200+ Mbps) — ideal for streaming, video calls, or working remotely while surrounded by nature.

Pets are welcome on request and can safely roam within the fenced area. For something truly special, a helicopter landing area is available by arrangement through the rear gate — the perfect way to arrive in style and take in the sweeping Hunter Valley views from above.

Perched high above historic Pokolbin, the estate overlooks the breath-taking vineyards and mountain ranges of the Hunter Valley. The drive winds along scenic country roads lined with overhanging trees, opening to sweeping valley vistas that change with the light.

Down below lies Australia’s oldest wine region, home to renowned wineries, cellar doors, and award-winning restaurants — from Audrey Wilkinson and Brokenwood to Bistro Molines and Hunter Valley Gardens.

This is the heart of Hunter Valley wine country, where history, fine wine, and natural beauty meet in perfect harmony.

Weekends in the Hunter Valley can be busy — we recommend booking cellar doors and restaurants in advance, especially for group tastings and long lunches.

Most wineries close around 4:30–5:00 PM, so plan your tastings earlier in the day and leave time to enjoy the views.

Local produce markets and boutique cheese shops in Pokolbin and Lovedale are worth exploring for picnic supplies or gifts.

Don’t forget to bring a designated driver or pre-book a local wine tour if you plan to visit multiple vineyards.

A car is essential to fully enjoy the Hunter Valley. The estate is just minutes from Pokolbin’s wineries, restaurants, and cellar doors, with scenic drives winding through vineyards and rolling countryside.

Most attractions are within a 10–20 minute drive, and local tour operators also offer private transfers, wine tours, and hot-air balloon pickups directly from the property gate.

For guests arriving by air, Cessnock Airport is 25 minutes away, or Newcastle Airport around 1 hour 15 minutes by car. Helicopter transfers can also be arranged to land directly on the property’s private helipad (by prior approval).

Reaching the estate is part of the experience — a scenic drive along a winding gravel mountain road that leads to complete privacy across 11 hectares of private land and breath-taking Hunter Valley views. Simply enter “Pokolbin Mountain Estate” into your map directions and drive safely.
