This property is the perfect retreat, close to wineries and shops for essentials and a lovely pool to swim in. The rooms are large and lovely and the aircon works a treat on hot days! Would definitely rent again!

The property was great and we enjoyed the Area. We got to use all the property had to offer. We played golf, went for walks, swam in the pool, got to ride our bikes around the property, played games and had some really nice breakfast’s, lunches and dinners. We saw lots of Kangaroos in the mornings and the afternoons. We would definitely refer people to stay at this property.

Peaceful stay
This is an older property. Magnificent property land. Plenty of car spaces. Didn't understand the two separate front door entrances ??We stayed 2 nights. Huge modern bathrooms x2. One bathroom accommodated laundry needs nicely. should you require to wash. Open fireplace for winter. Split air con in main living area. Air cons in two bedrooms with ceiling fan and TV in ensuite bedroom. Proximity to White Barn wedding venue was excellent. less than 2km. Our guest provided excellent kitchen needs. Plenty of utensils, crockery, pots & pans etc, etc. A beautiful peaceful stay. Too cold to swim, but an amazing pool with surrounds. We had a BBQ lunch which was great. Wrap around verandahs. A day bed. The boys played golf. they said it was fun and right in the backyard. lots of bird life and kangaroos. Our host Stephen was very very helpful. Overall, we had a great short stay, and this is an amazing property for families and or a group of friends.

Our family (two dogs, toddler and two adults) thoroughly enjoyed the expansive property. Fully equipped and very quiet. 10 - 15 min drive to Pokolbin. Communications from Stephen was excellent. Highly recommended.

Comfortable Home, Beautiful Property, Great Location
Sascher’s Retreat was a wonderful place to take our 2 dogs and visiting family from Canada, including a 9-year-old. We were perfectly comfortable there through our week of extreme weather, including watching a spectacular storm across the valley from the back veranda. There was plenty to keep us entertained for the week at the property and we were 10-15 minutes from many Hunter Valley activities, including 22 local dog friendly wineries and 18 dog friendly restaurants, all recommended by our incredible host Stephen. We could not have been more impressed by Stephen. He promptly answered any questions we had before and during our stay. We all had a great time!
