BILLABONG MOON

a stunning escape

POKOLBIN–BILLABONG MOON

Stylish privacy in a peacefull bushland oasis – it's easy to see why Billabong Moon guests delight in unwinding in front of a cosy fire, while sipping a superb Hunter Valley wine.

The unique cottages are set among 25 acres of native forest in the famous Pokolbin wine-growing region in the Hunter Valley.

Wide verandahs and gazebos provide the perfect place to relax and take in the serene surrounds, or take a casual stroll along the walking tracks through the whispering casuarina forest.

Owners Andy and Jenny Birtchnell have designed the property – just two hours from Sydney – with the personal, private needs of guests in mind.

There are five spacious, thoughtfully designed, self-contained cottages – Billabong, Casuarina, the Studio, Sunset Ridge and Treetops – all located to ensure total privacy.

While Casuarina provides an exclusive, private outdoor hot tub experience, the Studio offers an enticing king-size four-poster bed for tempting sleep-ins. Sunset Ridge and Treetops are a perfect intimate escape for couples, and guests can lounge on deckchairs and take in the stunning views as they fish for silver perch off Billabong’s waterside deck.

Cosy wood fires and polished timber floors add to the ambience and warmth of comfy living areas, while baths and spas for two offer the chance to indulge in a red wine bath.

All cottages are energy efficient double brick and have reverse cycle air-conditioning for instant warmth during the glorious cooler months with bright clear skies and crisp cool nights.

While it’s hard to go past the temptation of the region’s wineries, there’s so much more to enjoy in the area if you can bear to drag yourself away from your surrounds.

Take an early-morning balloon flight, try an in-house massage or make the most of the many concerts, markets and food and wine events the valley is becoming renown for.

TARIFF: from $220/couple/night; $340/ 2 couples/night; $600/couple/2-night weekend; $980/2 couples/2-night weekend.

Address: 393 Hermitage Road Pokolbin NSW 2320

Description of Pokolbin: The area which incorporates Pokolbin, Lovedale, Mount View and Rothbury is associated with just one thing: wine. These are the vineyards of the Lower Hunter - aparadise for wine lovers, although the district is quite scenic and there are enough secondary attractions at Pokolbin to justify a visit by those who have no interest in viticulture. Pokolbin is essentially a district bisected by a numberof roads along which lie the picturesque vineyards of Pokolbin and those businesses which complement the wineries: fine accommodation, restaurants, galleries, nurseries, gift shops and various enterprises which furnish transport around the Pokolbin district.
