Beautiful, peaceful location with plenty of outdoor space between cottages so that we felt quite private from people staying in either of the other two buildings. We were two couples so it was great having two en suites. Kitchen had all we needed. Would have liked to have stayed more nights to allow more time to enjoy all the various options for sitting and relaxing around the wrap around verandah.

What can I say, but what a perfect location to host a garden wedding. We booked the whole property for a wedding hosting overseas guests and family. Lots of space, multiple locations for photographs, plenty of parking and facilities beautiful properties and well appointed rooms. We used multiple vendors on the Thistle Hill website to provide, bar, flowers and multiple other services and they were of the highest quality. Thistle Hill really cares about providing the best for their guests and customers. Thank you so much for all your help and for being so flexible. Loved it.

We were fortunate enough to stay at the Thistle Hill guest house for the October long weekend. It was, without a doubt, one of the most spectacular locations the Hunter Valley has to offer. Generously sized rooms, enormous TV, a kitchen any chef would be thrilled with and a beautiful outdoor area, including a wonderful pool. In a word, sublime. Thank you Jo, we will be back

I recently celebrated a birthday and invited my extended family to stay in the 8 bedroom house. Each room was very comfortable and private and there were plenty of spaces to get together around the home. The grounds are well maintained and we loved the fact that we could bring our dogs. Although there was no common lounge room (only dining room), we used the Pavillon area if we wanted to play games. Everyone had a lovely time.

The country character and comfort. It’s a self check in with no hassles. The wrap around varanda, the gardens, the interior comfort and spotless cleanness is number one in Hunter and many other holiday stay that I had (in 5 stars). If you like a true country style decor and comfort than this is must stay. There isn’t breakfast facilities 🥲 but you’ll have from comfortable bed and pillows, fluffy towels (with extras at your disposal), tea and coffee making, a little local liquor to warm up on cold nights, all quality toiletries, pay tv and the most quiet place you’ll ever get besides the birds singing and the sound of the soft wind against the the tree branches.

Thistle Hill Guesthouse is perfect for a family getaway, beautiful individually furnished rooms, all with luxurious amenities and own bathrooms, the big group kitchen/dining area was perfect for breakfast together then lots of other areas to utilise for all age ranges in a family group. We chose to have a chef do main meals and have a decorator do setup along with a fabulous local photographer who came and photographed our relaxed time together, then the rest was up to us to enjoy our rare family time together. In these crazy busy times this was a very rare chance to take stress off and relax in this peaceful location for a few days together as a family group. Was perfect!

My son & I just had wonderful stay at Thistle Hill Guest House, our 2 bedroom cottage was absolutely perfect for us & our sunset view from the cottage with a wine or two was breath taking. Beautifully appointed with everything you could possibly need or want. Highly recommend it for couples, friends & families with little ones, 5 stars from us.
