It’s also the perfect place for a corporate tournament, team building games on indoor wellness and yoga workshops and offers two convenient powder rooms.

A big thank you to the Owners.

The care and respect you have shown for the Gow's is amazing. We had a wonderful time and relived a lot of memories. It was great to sleep in the old mansion again.

Rebecca M - Feb, 2020 via Hunter Valley Stays

Every guest said "WOW"

We hired the entire property and every guest that walked into it just stood there and said 'WOW". It is impressive to a fault and even with 32 guests you never feel you are too close - in fact I would have liked a megaphone to round them up for meal times. John meets you at the property and he makes you feel very welcome and relaxed as he shows you around the property.

Robyn - Jan, 2020 via Hunter Valley Stays

Amazing Property

Yes, the property is amazing.

Simone - Dec, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

Stunning!

Greystone Estate is a stunning property. We booked out the entire estate for our end of year celebration and it was everything we could have asked for. Close to wineries and other tourist attractions in Pokolbin it was the perfect place to spend a weekend. From arrival to departure, the property manager was fantastic and only a message away if we needed anything. I would highly recommend this property!

Ngan - Dec, 2019 via Homeaway

Amazing location for so many occasions

“Amazing property that far exceeded our expectations. Catered for ages 4-70.. everything was thought of for entertaining. The 2 sinks and 2 dishwashers made cleaning up a breeze. Cannot wait to come back.”

Absolutely amazing

For a group of 28 the property offerred the very best of accommodation - each room with an ensuite - the dining area superb - several lounging area, all excellent and the pool and games room ideal for the children in our group. We cannot speak highly enough of the facilities.

Jill - Nov, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

Remarkable environment for a family get-together

A superb property, perfect for a range of groups. Ours was a get together of a far-flung family, aged from 4-70. Lots of room, lots of space inside and outside for running around, being together and being not all together. Great pool and the games room was an absolute treasure.

Fran - Oct, 2019 via Homeaway

Stunning!

A stunning property that caters for young families and couples and singles. The photos dont do the property justice from an overall site plan.

Belinda - Jul, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

Perfection

>We stayed here for our wedding and had every bed available occupied. And wow! It was amazing. The rooms were styled beautifully and each had their own bathroom. The estate is massive, the dining table huge, that multiple conversation could be happening and it did not feel like you were talking over anyone. There is an outdoor lounge area, which was breathtaking at sunset. We didn’t get to use the pool area due to the time of year, but we were so impressed we are hoping to book again in the warmer months. There is a games shed/barn which kept everyone occupied. Honestly, to have 32 guests stay on the one property and to not feel overwhelmed with space says a lot about this place. So stunning and can’t wait to book again! Every single guest loved it!

Tiana - Jul, 2019 via Trip Advisor

Fabulous!

Absolutely fabulous!!! All of my guests that came for birthday celebrations were very impressed with everything.

Kris - Jul, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

Fabulous property. Ideal for large group entertaining.

Booked Greystone Estate for our annual Christmas in July weekend and were delighted with this property. For our group of 18 adults it worked perfectly and the kitchen and dining facilities were exactly what we needed for our in house meals and our celebration dinner. The rooms were beautifully decorated and having bathrooms for everyone was such a bonus! The staff at Hunter Valley Stays helped up out with everything we needed making it an all round fabulous weekend. We've already booked to return in 2020!

Kylie - Jul, 2019 via Trip Advisor

Absolutely amazing

What an amazing property, fantastic venue for 30 people in total comfort with everything thought of.

Kristeen - Jun, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

Truly Incredible Stay!

Greystone Estate was every bit luxury and comfort. Our group could not fault any aspect of the property. Thank you for a truly incredible stay! The staff at Hunter Valley stays went above and beyond and I couldnt rate them highly enough. We will definitely be recommending you to others in our industry and hope to stay with you again soon!

Melissa - Jun, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

Amazing!

The property was amazing! We needed 4 separate places to house all our guest but also a common place for us to get together and Greystone was the best set-up for this. I was disappointed that there was no kitchenette in Gow House as it is shown on the plans otherwise the property was perfect.

Jodye - Jun, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays

A wonderful experience from start to finish

Absolutely beautiful property, great accommodation for large party. A wonderful experience from start to finish, look forward to staying with HV Stays again in the future.

I had a fantastic time at Greystone Estate. I went to the Hunter Valley for a weekend away with a group of 17 females and had the best time !! The house is extremely spacious, every bedroom has its own bathroom, house was extremely clean, fully equipped. The finishes and overall styling was stunning. Would definitely go back again !

Fantastic house

A fabulous venue, each couple gets their own ensuite. Lots of room for all guests to be together or plenty of quiet spots to retreat to also. Furnishings, decor, facilities, fixtures and fittings all exceptional. Fantastic option for large groups. Loved it!!!

Sam - Jan, 2019 via Facebook

Lounging in Luxury

Had the pleasure of staying with friends at this wonderfully renovated property. No detail is missed with luxury touches throughout. We had our own en-suite room with huge comfy bed (glorious bedding), there was plenty of space for our bags and hanging. There was a bar fridge as well. But the main attraction for us was the huge living spaces both indoor and out. Lots of different areas to relax with the friends or in a more private setting. What an amazing dining table seating all 30 guests. So just imagine the size of the kitchen- WOW So highly recommend for your family or friends gathering in the Hunter Valley.

Grany-Mae - Oct, 2018 via Trip Advisor

Large upmarket retreat

Greystone Estate previously known to some as Splinters Guest House changed hands last year and has been completely renovated and transformed into an amazing retreat to welcome the largest of family gatherings or business getaways. The owners renovated a similar smaller property known as Whitevale in Lovedale that l have stayed at many times, I thought that was amazing but they have outdone them selves with this new opulent grand multi building private resort. From the fully renovated and freshly styled bedrooms to the grand dining, living area with 2 large TV's, massive kitchen that offers multi ovens and refrigeration you will be constantly amazed at what this property offers. The grand pavilion and pool area provides all weather coverage with 2 Webber BBQ's plus there is a man cave/ play area for big boys and their children. You will be hard pressed not to be blown away by this amazing property and once you have visited you are sure to return.
