Our beautiful 15m pool is the centrepiece if the retreat. Containing dissolved magnesium mineral salts, the pool water is gentle on the skin, hair and eyes, it improves water quality and is more environmentally friendly. 

Magnesium absorbs through the skin when swimming and is said to relieve stress by helping your body better metabolise cortisol, leaving you feeling more relaxed after a swim, and can even improve the quality of your sleep.

Pool towels are provided for guests in the changerooms by the sauna.

Pool, open daily 8am - 8pm

 Our cedarwood wet sauna is the ultimate tool for your health and relaxation. Long cherished for its health benefits, our sauna will help you reduce stress and promote relaxation. Pour water to the heated sauna stones to produce steam and increase humidity, and you'll give the sauna a steamy atmosphere. 

Relax in the sauna to sooth sore muscles and improve joint flexibility, boost your immune system, improve skin health and eliminate toxins - a fabulous addition to your stay with us. 

Ask Reception 20 mins before using.

With a great selection of Hunter Valley wines, beers and spirits, a night in Andy's Bar is a great way to relax after a hard day's touring the vineyards. Try one of our two types of Wine Country Retreat beers or grab a glass of local wine and relax on the comfortable lounges, by the cosy fireplace or on the expansive deck to watch the sunset. You can even grab a grazing board or a cheese plate to share. 

Why not indulge an exclusive tasting with a local winemaker, every Monday and Friday evening (bookings are essential).

Andy's Bar opens daily from 5pm  

What's the easiest way to get around the Hunter Valley's world-renowned wineries and restaurants? Relax and let us do the driving! For larger groups we have a Renault Master van (up to 10 people) and for couples we have a saloon car, and we can take you wherever you want to go around the Valley! 

From just $35 per trip, bookings essential.  

There's something magical about gathering around a fire, in the cool of the evening. Join us on those long winter nights by a crackling fire in our huge fire pit. Grab your friends and a glass of Hunter Valley shiraz and you've got the ultimate cozy chill-out session. BYO marshmallows! 

Please ask at Reception the day before to ensure there is plenty of dry wood available. 

If you feel the need to work off some of that amazing Hunter Valley food, head to our gym, located with a fantastic view over the pool. This handy little gym has free weights, a weight bench, exercise bike and stepper. Grab a yoga mat, and head onto the deck for some stretching or a mediation session.
