Family reunion
Great for a family weekend reunion. Loved the kitchen and large dining table which seated 13 of us. Beds were comfy and warm. Close proximity to wineries, olive groves and Pokolbin only a short drive away. Only negative is the house could do with a bit of TLC and minor repairs. Very enjoyable weekend!

Friends catch-up
Amelia Rose was a lovely property for our group of 11 friends who like to catch up in different locations each year. It was well-appointed, with lovely comfortable beds and furnishings. We enjoyed the spa and the fireplaces, as well as the ducted gas heating for those cold winter nights. One couple stayed in the separate cottage on the property. It would be a lovely property to stay in with teenagers who would utilise the games room and the pool in summer. We had a deal where you paid for 2 nights but got to stay for 3, which made it great value for money. It was far enough out of town to be private, but not too far to travel, and the bus for our winery tour picked us up from the gate. What more could you want!

Mostly OK
Property was fit for purpose but all the 'amenities' were in disrepair. No pool cues, broken table tennis net, dodgy and dangerous gas top, spa jets not working properly, ironing board with screw head sticking up through surface etc

great location
The house is in a fantastic location, with beautiful surrounds. The house has a great layout too! Beds were comfy and all supplied linens were beautiful. The house itself felt unloved with some general maintenance required - holes in nearly flyscreen, front door broken, the pool needed to be scrubbed down on the sides and the bath required scrubbing before use.

Review for Amelia Rose
The house was absolutely lovely. Nestled in Lovedale it overlooked a gorgeous little creek surrounded by so many wonderful trees. It accommodated my group perfectly and the entertaining areas were great. We loved using the pool and loved how the outdoor table was under cover for when it rained and we could still go out to have a bbq and watch the storm. Thanks so much!

Fabulous property for a family birthday celebration. Plenty of space and activities on site.
The newly finished pool was a bonus especially as the weather was much better than predicted. Bedrooms were spacious and the little house gives you room for those few extra family members.

Beautifully presented & comfortable home!
We were very impressed with our stay at Amelia Rose. The property was very clean, comfortable and had a great amount of inside and outside living and entertaining areas, it was very well presented. We made use of the fireplaces (inside & outside), which warmed the house up great, the spa in the outside entertaining area was a great place to relax as well. The location was also very close to most wineries and very easy to access. The cottage is a little far away from the main house which wasn't necessarily a bad thing, the only suggestion I would make is perhaps creating a little pathway or have a bit more light as it can be a little bit dark and rocky walking down there late at night. With the pool currently being built, we would love to come back and stay again in the warmer months and make use of that!

Excellent Hunter Valley accomodation
We had a fantastic 5 day stay at Amelia-Rose over Christmas 2017. The house was big enough for the whole family to stay together over the holiday. It is very well equipped with modern furniture, appliances, air conditioning and fans if required, and the whole setting inside and out is spacious with lots to do with the spa, pool table, ping pong table and dart board. The accommodation is well situated close to the wineries of the Hunter Valley, local cafes and restaurants, and I would highly recommend staying in summer as well as winter where you would be able to take advantage of the fire places.
