Perfect property for a weekend away with friends
Perfect property for a weekend away with friends. We were able to fit in a lot of nearby activities (golf, go-karting, breweries and vineyards), as well as enjoy the pool and spa at the house.

The photos don't do this beautiful place justice
This property was absolutely beautiful! The place was so clean, with amazing views. The house was just an absolute dream, even our two dogs loved running around. Everything about this property was amazing! The cleanliness, the views, the space, just everything. Everything was provided in terms of linen, towels and cutlery etc. The photos dont do this beautiful place justice! We were absolutely stunned. Definitely recommend

Clean and welcoming
Maranda House is such a great place to stay. There are at least 3 wineries within a 5 minute drive but you are well away from the hustle and bustle of Pokolbin, which is a 20 minute drive away. The house is clean and welcoming, its a really lovely home. We also utilized the 2 studios and even though it was 2 degrees over the weekend the studios were very warm with the air con.

Everything is as described
We were a group of 10 people and we all enjoyed our stay at Maranda Country Estate. Everything is as described. So much room for everyone inside and out. The property is well kept. We loved the well stocked kitchen with all the plates, cups, utensils... that you could possibly need. We will come back.

Gorgeous house, great area
We had a delightful stay in this gorgeous house. It had a peaceful rural outlook and the house itself worked wonderfully, full of welcoming rooms, inviting couches, comfortable bedrooms, excellent kitchen. The small wineries within minutes of the house are wonderful too. Highly recommended.

Beautiful Broke Stay
“A fabulous house for a group wanting to enjoy the beautiful surroundings and wineries of the Hunter. We loved the indoor and outdoor balconies. The view was stunning. Great little studios for a smaller group and the spa was a hit even in winter. We’ll be back!”

Will definitely be back
The family enjoyed their stay! We had the main house and both studios for 3 separate families and it worked really well. Everyone enjoyed the fireplace and dining room as well as their separate spaces. The stand out for me was waking up both mornings before 6am and watching the beautiful sunrise over the mountains. Simply divine!

Wonderful family holiday
This is a really wonderful property for a family holiday with the pool, BBQ area, spa and lawn for cricket etc. we had a very happy Xmas week with two families (12 of us from 5 years up) and grandparents (especially after two years of Covid lockdowns!) We loved the dining room and long table and the sitting room. Thank you for a memorable holiday we will all remember with great fondness. !

Best Family Getaway
We loved our stay at Maranda’s! It’s a very comfortable property with an amazing garden and the views are just wonderful !Best place for a family reunion with a safe pool for little ones .. The studios are great additional accommodation so everyone has their own space to retreat to .. The animals in the nearby fields .. the quietness made it the best family getaway we had for a long time! Can’t wait to go back.

Very comfortable home
The property was fantastic with excellent views. The size and layout of the property comfortably accommodated our group of 8. Everyone fell in love with this property and already planning on a return trip. Visits to the wineries and local attractions were just the icing on the cake to an amazing weekend.

Incredible views
The accommodation was fantastic - well appointed facilities, lovely lounge and very comfy beds. The views of Adam’s Peak and surrounding mountains from the back dining room & back paddock are incredible. The dogs had a great time running around. Highly recommended.

Great Property for Large Groups
This is a great property for a large group of people. It's a beautiful property- the pictures don't do it justice. The communication was excellent and any question I had was answered promptly- nothing felt too difficult. Thank you so much for having us.

Great Location, Amazing View.
Maranda Country Estate has one of the best backyard views for an accommodation. It's really convenient, equipped with many facilities, with a breathtaking view that will make it difficult for travellers like us to leave the place. I would be really happy to have another chance to rent it again in the future.

Perfect for a weekend away
A great place in a central location to some great vineyards. Beautiful view of the mountains. Perfect for a weekend away with friends. If you go please check out River Flats Estate for their olives, oils, condiments and home made soaps, scrubs and lotions. Tinonee was a fantastic cellar door I would also visit time and time again.

Perfect spot for a larger group
This was a perfect spot for a larger group. The views from the back balcony were majestic. Enough dining/entertaining space. Having two studios was great for those who required more privacy. A very suitable and comfortable feel to the entire house... the fire and the many heaters kept the house extremely toasty in the middle of winter. The host was kind enough to turn the hot tub on in advance ( as it takes 4 hours to heat up) and that was a little touch I was very appreciative of. All instructions were straightforward and easy to follow. We had a great time during our stay.

Anywhere that accommodates dogs and children well is well worth it - great for big families.
Lovely accommodation, very comfortable. Children did many outdoor activities as opposed to devices. Close to all we wanted to see like Hunter Valley gardens & rides. Log fire lovely at night.

Great house
The property was in a convenient location and the separate studio cabins were a very useful feature.
Steven - May, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays
Fantastic!
Fantastic size house that catered well for 10 guests looking for a weekend away. All the rooms were good size and had air cons. The two studio rooms were very spacious with small living areas and also had their own air cons. One studio had the shower outside although not an issue. The main house catered well in terms of living area and there was ample dining space both inside and out. The pool was great especially on the hot days and the hot tub was also a nice touch. It had a bbq for outdoor cooking and some sun chairs to lounge around in. The property itself was ample and very serene, a nice escape from city life.
Nicolas - Feb, 2019 via AirBnb
Highly recommended!
Our extended family holiday at Maranda Estate was fantastic. There was enough room for 4 families, and the kids all had a great time with the pool and the large backyard (big enough for summer cricket!) and there was plenty for the adults as well. Particularly grateful for lots of a/c as it was very hot!! The layout was fantastic and the venue is very close to lots of vineyards if you want to go out (or the zoo as well), and the kitchen was big enough to cater if you want to stay in as well. Highly recommended!
