arm and welcoming stay!
A really wonderful experience! We stayed at the retreat for two nights in one of the gorgeous cottages. On arrival we were warmly greeted and given great information regarding the surrounding area. We were then taken personally to our cottage and given a succinct run through of the necessities i.e. how to use the fireplace, where to find breakfast supplies and key area information.A lovely bottle of local wine was provided free of charge! The grounds around the cottages was beautifully kept. I would highly recommend staying in this beautiful boutique accommodation.

Perfect for Hunter Valley break
Great central location. Short drive to lots of vineyards and can walk to a couple of bars/restaurants. Cottages are nicely decorated, well equipped, and very private with beautiful outlook, and kangaroos cone and graze every evening. And good value. We would certainly stay here again.

What a gorgeous place to stay. The owners were very lovely and accommodating. The outlook is amazing with 180 degree unfettered views of mountains and vineyards. The ammenities were very clean. The cabin is set privately away from other guests so you feel like you’re the only ones there.
Would highly recommend and we will be coming back next time we are in the Hunter Valley.

Perfect weekend retreat
Ken and Susie were the perfect hosts. They greeted us on arrival and allowed us to check in early and gave us plenty of local tips for the weekend.
We were in cabin five, which is the bottom cabin and in our eyes, the best cabin! It was very clean, peaceful, stocked fridge with everything you need for breakfast and a delicious bottle of wine to unwind with.
There are a number of places for drinks and food within walking distance and the iHop bus stops five minutes down the road, opening up the central Pokolbin area. It’s a great location for exploring the Hunter Valley but also allows you to escape from it all and have your privacy and relax.
We are already planning a return trip!

Anniversary getaway
Our anniversary weekend away was absolutely perfect. The accommodation plus the breathtaking views is just what we were hoping for. A big thank you to the hosts!

The location of this property on a non-through road means that it is very quiet and has great views as its located on top of a ridge . The real bonus however is the abundance of wallabies in the morning and particularly in the evenings which roam the grounds freely

We stayed with another couple. The accommodation is roomy and plenty of room for 2 couples. It was too hot to enjoy the outside of the property but the a/c inside was very nice. Ken was kind enough to call ahead and find out how far away we were so he could put the a/c on for us which was greatly appreciated. Ken and Susie are friendly and helpful.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Berenbell. The cottage is very well maintained and has spectacular views. The hosts were extremely accommodating of our anticipated late arrival. The breakfast muffins are worth the stay alone (delicious!). Will definitely be back!

Peaceful romantic ambience, breathtaking outlook
My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed our weekend stay at the gorgeous Berenbell Vineyard Retreat. From the moment we drove up the driveway we we were taken away by the beauty of the property and the friendliness of the staff. We were very well looked after and felt the accommodation was very comfortable and clean. We really enjoyed cooking breakfast and eating out on our private patio in the mornings looking out over the vineyards on the opposite hill and even saw a few kangaroos hopping by. It was lovely to have the privacy of a free standing cottage all to ourselves. We will definitely be staying here again in future!

We thoroughly enjoyed our 3 day stay at Berenbell. The accommodation was cosy and spacious. There were lovely outdoor areas to enjoy a wine and the magnificent view of the Mountains. The property was spotlessly clean and the guests supplies were very generous. We would definitely return to Berenbell and highly recommend it to other travelers.

I cannot rave about this place enough. Ken and Suzie were absolutely incredible hosts. Our every need was met beyond anything we could have dreamed; with fresh baked muffins, eggs and bread supplied daily along with other continental breakfast options. The property is clean, comforting and beautiful and the surrounds are just gorgeous. It's also located within walking distance to two restaurants and a pub so you don't have to worry about counting your drinks. Could not recommend more highly, will definitely be back!

The service was terrible at the Berenbell. In my extensive traveling this was the worst service I have ever experienced. The accommodation itself is fine, but would not recommend staying here.

Amazing views and friendly owners
It was our first time venturing out in to the countryside of Australia and we were so glad we did! Ken and Suzie were amazing hosts and shared so many wonderful things about the area- even a bottle of wine to help us celebrate our anniversary! The views from our cottage were incredible and the wine was wonderful. Definitely going to come back again and again.
