We stayed here recently and while the room itself was beautiful and set in a stunning area, unfortunately our experience was let down by a few issues. There were constant insects throughout our stay, including a large number of ants crawling in the room and even in the bed, which made it very uncomfortable and difficult to sleep at night. The sink tap was also extremely loose, and the shower had no door or proper screen, meaning the entire bathroom flooded every time we showered.
That said, the room was genuinely gorgeous and well-equipped with lots of amenities, and the surrounding area was lovely. It had so much potential, but these issues really impacted our overall comfort and experience.

We stayed for two nights while visiting Hunter valley. The location is good, with Brokenwood wines and Roche estate a 5 minute drive away.
You can get Ubers but need to wait around 15 minutes for the to arrive.
We stayed in the Milk Shed which was great, really well decorated, bathroom was nice, we had good views over a pond with ducks and the vineyards in the background.
If you do not like nature this may not be best for you as there are a lot of wild birds gather by the pond, we liked the setting.
The only thing to be aware of is that the kitchen does not have an oven so don’t go buying pizzas to cook back at the apartment, otherwise it had everything else, toaster, hob top, microwave, kettle and Nespresso machine.
We are glad we stayed here.

The Pokolbin Farm Stay is a peaceful, relaxing retreat and a wonderful alternative to staying at a hotel.
It was beautifully set up with everything we needed for a couple of nights; kettle, toaster etc.
I would 100% recommend it and can't wait for the next opportunity to stay there.
