112 Halls Road, Pokolbin NSW 2320

Set quietly behind its vineyard approach, surrounded by mature gardens, open lawns and the timeless romance of the Hunter Valley, The Carriages is one of Pokolbin's most charming boutique accommodation estates.

Evocative of a Southern Highlands country house or an English countryside retreat, this classically beautiful estate blends boutique hotel income with a deeply romantic lifestyle setting. Convict bricks, slab timber, open fireplaces, rose gardens, verandas, vineyard views and country-style accommodation combine to create a property of rare atmosphere and enduring appeal.

Set across approximately 36 acres in central Pokolbin, The Carriages offers an established boutique accommodation business with 10 elegant guest suites across two separate accommodation buildings. The guesthouse and cottage sit amongst mature European-style gardens, with guests able to enjoy the tennis court, in-ground swimming pool, sweeping lawns, vineyard surrounds and the quiet luxury of a true country escape.

The property is especially captivating through autumn and winter, when the vines turn gold, the gardens soften, and crackling fireplaces become the heart of the estate. Guests can curl up beside the fire with a bottle of estate wine, enjoy breakfast on the verandah, or stroll to nearby restaurants, markets, cellar doors, cafés, wedding venues and some of the Hunter Valley's most celebrated attractions.

Adding further depth to the offering is a beautifully appointed owner's residence, providing five bedrooms, three bathrooms, a fireplace, private swimming pool and alfresco entertaining area. This allows an owner-operator to live in exceptional comfort on site or alternatively provides scope for further accommodation or private-use flexibility, subject to the relevant approvals.

The vineyard estate also produces handcrafted single vineyard wines, adding another layer of authenticity and romance to the business. Whether enjoyed in-room, by the fire, beside the pool or amongst the gardens, the wine component enhances the guest experience and reinforces the property's identity as a genuine Hunter Valley vineyard retreat.

For lifestyle buyers, this is the dream of country estate living without isolation. For accommodation operators, it is a rare opportunity to secure an established boutique hotel in one of Australia's most recognised wine and tourism destinations. For those with a broader vision, the abundant landholding provides potential for further accommodation, vineyard, events, garden or agricultural pursuits, subject to council approval.

Beautiful, established and wonderfully atmospheric, The Carriages is more than a guesthouse. It is a romantic country estate, a boutique hotel, a vineyard retreat and a lifestyle business of genuine charm.
