Great property, ample living spaces, beautiful outlook, well equipped kitchen and close to beautiful Morpeth. Could not fault this property, only sorry we were only there for 2 nights

We definitely struck gold finding this amazing property in Hinton. Every room was impeccibly decorated, beds super comfortable and the view so tranqil. There was no shortage of luxuries. There is an outdoor sauna overlooking the expansive paddock, a firepit with a built in yarning circle, piano and a full sized pool table. Our teenage children played games of pool followed by sitting around the campfire playing their guitars, which was so heartwarming to see them interact like this rather than sit on their devices. There is also a selection of great reading material in the library lounge area as well as games and puzzles. We are already planning our next visit back. Thank you Penny for letting us stay and for your incredible communication. From enquiry to booking and checking out was seamless.
