Pokolbin Hotel Tips by trisanna

We stayed here over the Easter holiday weekend for two nights in cottage No. 4. We had a great time. The cottages are located on a dirt road in the middle of the Hunter Wine region. There are five yellow cottages around a little pond that is full of ducks. Behind our cottage, the owner of the property had a little vineyard. Our cottage had a lovely open wood fire. two tvs with satelitte and dvd player (they also have a few dvds that you can watch). Nice kitchen with pots pans, stove, microwave and electric stove. They put eggs, bacon, bread and jams in the fridge. Since it was Easter, they gave us a chocolate Easter bunny, which i thought was a great touch! There is a gas bbq in the back. In the bedroom there is a large spa bath for two persons. The bed and the bed linen are very comfy.

PROs:
good location, close to all the wineries. Restaurants are only a few minutes away by car. Great kitchen-we cooked breakfast every morning and one dinner. Nice spa bath. Loved the wood fire place

Cons; when you turn the hot water on in the bath for the first time there is a bit of a sulfur smell. This went away after a minute or two. When you drive into the property, there is a narrow wooden bridge over a small pond. This can be tricky to drive over at night, since it's narrow and you don't want to scratch your car.

We thought the price was a little expensive, but the price was on average for a nice one bedroom cottage in the hunter valley during the peak season. i would definately stay here again!
