    Cloudy weather yesterday encouraged my husband and I with 3 overseas relatives to visit the Audrey Wilkinson cellar door.
    Magnificent views over the Hunter Valley to start.
    Inside the cellar door tasting room the decor was cool, calm and comfortable.
    We tasted 6 standard wines and 2 desert wines all poured and a detailed explanation given by Harry , who certainly knew what he was talking about and remained unfazed and cheerful in spite of some silly bantering and heckling from some of the party.
    I bought several bottles of excellent wines and received a greater in-site into the growing and production of Australian wine.
    I would thoroughly recommend Harry as a guide to talk and educate you through a tasting.
    Well done Harry.

    We had an amazing tasting experience with our host Lewis Drayton. He had extensive knowledge of the history and tradition of the winery. The wine tasting was tailored to the taste of the group and progressed to our best tasting wines of the day for sure. Would highly reccomend! The grounds are also lovely to enjoy a stroll around.

    Great experience. James Perry was highly knowledgeable and great to interact with. The cellar door is very new and modern and a great place to spend some time.

    A series of beautiful gardens laid out around some nice small lakes. Each garden is not extensive but a small taste of different styles.
    Well maintained and an easy stroll - picturesque and a wonderful way to while away a few hours.

    I did this as part of an excursion from the cruise I was on. We only had 40 minutes to spend here. NOT ENOUGH. I was very happy to see emus, eastern grey kangaroos and wallabys up close with nothing but a chain link fence between us. They seem to be happy and content in their enclosure. I spent so much time with them, that there wasn't enough time to get to the other side and see the koalas and other animals.

    Short and challenging with amazing views. The walk up the Summit was truly a physical challenge but worth it. The incline is fairly steep and there are a number of stairs to climb as a result but overall worth the effort.

    interesting museum in the former fort at the entrance to Newcastle harbour. being on a raised area gives glorious views on Newcastle & the surrounding area. unfortunately to tunnels weren't open when we were there, but still worth the visit

    This was the only winery in the area I found that offered a kids tasting board, so the kids were happy while adults tried some wines. It included different juices etc and snacks. Adult tasting options were great and we enjoyed the cheese and meats board and the seacuterie. Staff were so helpful.
