About this cottage rental

McDonald cottage is one of five cottages at Glen Ayr Cottages, situated in the heart of Pokolbin vineyards, five minutes' drive from Hunter Gardens, concert venues, and many wineries. McDonald is a comfortable three-bedroom cottage with two queen beds and twin singles. It has one bathroom. It has a large living and kitchen area with an open fire and air-conditioning. The kitchen is fully equipped, and all linen is provided.

The cottage is kept meticulously clean by our long-term housekeeper.

McDonald cottage is an hour and forty-five minutes' drive from the beginning of the M1 Motorway (Pacific Highway) at Wahroonga, and an hour from the centre of Newcastle. Despite being within five minutes' drive of many large wineries, it is quiet and secluded. It looks towards the neighbouring Audrey Wilkinson's vineyard from its verandah. Nearby attractions include wine tasting, fine restaurants, galleries, horse riding, hot air ballooning, bushwalking, golfing and sky diving.

There is also a great variety of birds and other wildlife in the surrounding area, including kangaroos and frill-necked lizards; kangaroos often graze in front of the cottage.

McDonald is comfortable and clean.

Please contact the owners if you have any enquiries.

Biggest problem, no hair dryer, which was unusual. never happened in Australia or any where we have travelled world wide, which resulted in us having to drive to buy one because we were going to a wedding, 4 females. Fridge, unstable rocked around every time door was opened. Outdoor BBQ, badly rusted, not useable, no matches to light if you wanted to. No proper gas one that could easily fit on deck. Steep steps at back where car parking is, no support/safety handles. Steep step at back door, no handles, unsafe. No wifi, or coffee table to put drinks, food on. No instructions for cook top 6 people couldn't work out how to use it, so, no cooking anything inside or out, oven only. Many cobwebs inside and some window sills unclean, dust along top of bed head and the underneath of chairs, cobwebs in kitchen cupboards and corners of lounge room. Very basic, minimal necessities, no shampoo, conditioner. If we had known this we could have brought it with us, instead we had to go shopping for it. The cheapest, thin toilet paper ever seen.
