Farm cottage with mountain views

The Cottage is a two-bedroom country house on our working cattle farm in Broke, on the tranquil side of the Hunter Valley. Our family has hosted guests here since 2014. Two king bedrooms with their own ensuites sit at opposite ends of the house, so it suits two couples as well as it does one. A wood fire, a fully stocked kitchen, an undercover outdoor dining area, and 74 hectares of paddocks with Yellow Rock on the horizon. Slow weekends, big skies, real country.
Sleeping up to four guests (yes, little ones are welcome too), it has two king bedrooms, each with its own ensuite so everyone gets their own space. The vibe inside is relaxed and inviting with vintage finds, soft linens and all the modern comforts you need.

The kitchen is fully equipped and ready for anything from morning pancakes to dinner made with local wine and produce. It opens onto a living area with a fireplace for chilly nights in and a smart TV if you feel like switching off with a movie.

Step outside and you’ve got a few options: a covered area for long lunches or lazy evenings with a bottle of red and a firepit that really shines after dark. If the stars are out, it’s a pretty magical spot.

While The Cottage is close to the main homestead, it’s tucked away just enough to feel private. Your hosts Bernadette and Max live on the property and are always nearby if you need anything but otherwise you’re left to enjoy it all in peace.

We’re a short drive to some of the Hunter Valley’s best wineries, restaurants and wedding venues. But you might just find you want to stay put, especially if you’ve brought kids. There’s space to roam, explore and enjoy a taste of farm life. Just a heads up: it’s a working farm and there are a few unfenced waterways so little ones will need to be supervised. We’re happy to provide a porta cot and high chair on request.
