Vacation rentals with a fireplace in Hawks Nest

My family and I had a wonderful stay at Barefoot at Broke over the long weekend. The house is beautifully decorated, comfortable and felt extremely spacious for the 5 of us, plus our family dog. Located in Broke, the property feels private and secluded, yet only a short drive away from some amazing wineries. Steve and Jen were also very responsive hosts, answering all our questions promptly and providing clear instructions for check in/ out. We would highly recommend Barefoot at Broke for a small group getaway - we had an amazing time!

We loved our stay at your beautiful home - so eclectic, gorgeous gardens, so relaxing with the wrap around verandah and day beds, and the magic bush track down to the beach. The kitchen was fully equipped, and everything so thoughtfully presented … a relaxing home away from home! Our little dog Cliffy absolutely loved his time there too … lots to explore in the fully fenced garden, and he loved his daily beach adventures. Thank you Evelyn & Kerry for making our stay so special. We will definitely be back and stay longer next time.

My friends and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay and Ben & Becky's place. We had planned some activities over the weekend but ended up just staying at the property as it was so peaceful and serene and had everything we needed to enjoy a very relaxing weekend. Highly recommended and would definitely stay again.

Trent’s cottage is blessed with a truly beautiful view overlooking the Hawkesbury River and across to the mountains on the other side. It is so peaceful and private yet the Wiseman’s Ferry township is only a short drive away. The cottage itself is beautifully presented and in as new condition. The spacious deck is a peaceful place to relax and enjoy the scenery. We had a very comfortable stay and would love to come back again.

Our family love it. Worth to travel cause we planed to stay down Newcastle or Terrigal but last minute and we decide to drive up…. spectacular view of sunrise. Step to the beach, wish we can come back when it is warmer Clean and spaces rooms. and Graeme was great host and response on time.

We had an amazing time at this property! From the moment we booked, Sandy was outstanding—super communicative, incredibly flexible, and genuinely accommodating. She went above and beyond to make our stay special, even hanging up a birthday sign for my father-in-law, which was such a thoughtful touch! The house itself was perfect for our family. The kids were thrilled with the games room—it kept them entertained for hours. We also loved having separate living areas for some quiet time, as well as a spacious communal area where we could all come together and relax. It’s clear Sandy pays attention to the little details that make a big difference. We felt truly welcomed and cared for throughout our stay. Highly recommend this place for families or groups looking for a comfortable, well-equipped, and heartwarming getaway!

just amazing house. more beautiful and clean than pictures. perfect for family holidays. highly recommend this house. we will come back again.

Nous avons passé un excellent séjour dans un environnement agréable et calme .Les plages accessibles à pieds sont magnifiques et il y a plein de belles balades à pieds à faire autour . La pièce de vie était très agréable ainsi que la terrasse . La cuisine était très bien équipée. La literie était bonne . Il est important de noter qu’il y a 32 marches à gravir pour atteindre la pièce de vie . Par ailleurs il peut être problématique de venir avec des enfants de moins de 10 ans car les chambres sont séparées de la pièce de vie par un escalier extérieur et les portes de chambres donnent sur une terrasse extérieure … De même pour l’espace douches et wc qui est semi-extérieur. Mais Luncinda répond aux messages rapidement et est très sympathique.

We had a wonderful time staying at Alison's place in Bar Beach. The location is amazing so close to the beach and Darby St, and the apartment is huge with lots of space to spread out and relax. I only wish we had stayed there longer to really make the most of it!

Amazing place. Felt really special the moment you stepped in. Tim has thought about every possible thing you would need for you stay. Thank you so much for the amazing experience.

Great place for a weekend in Killcare! Thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The apartment was clean, modern and had everything we could need for a lovely stay!

Needing somewhere to stay while working in the area & wow what a find! I couldn’t wait to finish work and get back to enjoy this place. Bonus having a beautiful dog greeting. Hosts are down to earth great people and make ya feel at home while also giving you privacy. I absolutely loved the uniqueness & detail and all the comforts of home plus more!

10/10 highly recommend getting the Mongolian lamb from the Chinese shop. Drove my Tesla here from Sydney, there’s a supercharger 20m away. Parking is easy, lots of good food and the coffee shop downstairs are really nice to us as they have good relationship with Airbnb host.

Very happy with our stay at Blueys Beach. Dean was very communicative and we felt we could reach out to him if there were any concerns. We would definitely like to return for another visit.

We loved the Bond House apartment. Despite the unusual access across the park it was well worth it once inside. Eclectic stylishly furnished spacious apartment well located for East Newcastle. A well stocked larder and great laundry space if you need it. Bathrooms very modern with heated towel rails and big fluffy towels! Beds very comfy too

Experience was great from beginning till the end. Place was nice and views were amazing. jaccuzi was hreat also. one of the nicest air bnbs ive been too. would highly reccomend

Wow! What a stay. Host was incredibly fast to reply to messages and so friendly. We had the most amazing stay at this property, every room was beautiful and the house was so clean. We will definitely stay here again!

This was a last minute find for us but it was just amazing. There were 3 ensuites and 1 main bathroom which made the stay for 4 of us couples with kids amazing. The living space was huge with a very comfortable couch, I only wish the TV was a bit bigger. The outdoor areas are well equipped with sufficient seating and spots to relax and enjoy. The house was clean however had a few cobwebs underneath dining chairs and some really big spiders roaming about but other than that it was spotless.

Among the Vines is a beautiful country home in a spectacular setting. Exactly what we wanted for our Hunter Valley retreat. Surrounded by vines and kangaroos, the house is well provisioned with a great kitchen, comfortable beds and cosy lounge with fireplace. Beautiful views from all the rooms, with just the right mix of style and comfort. The location is perfect, just minutes in all directions to the fabulous wineries and restaurants in Pokolbin. Matt is extremely responsive, with clear and helpful instructions, one of the best hosts I have experienced. And his manager Jaeden made sure the home was presented with impeccable attention to detail. We will definitely stay again! Thanks Matt, you clearly have a passion to help your guests have a wonderful experience in the Hunter Valley! Cheers

The house was very spacious and clean, location was nice and peaceful. Hosts were very responsive with all questions.

Gorgeous spot for a getaway from the city. Close to everything in the Hunter, but well away from everything and everyone. Super easy to find and get there, check-in/out was a breeze. All the information you need is provided. Great amenities especially in the kitchen. Accomodation is a beautiful space indoors and out. Amazing afternoon walks around the property. Would definitely recommend and stay again.

We really enjoyed our stay! We found the property to be exactly what we were looking for, a nice getaway that made you feel disconnected and relaxed. The property is set up perfectly to bring your dog, with the secure area around the villa that allows them to explore without worry. Zoe the resident dog is also great host and very welcoming, she would come a visit each day to make sure that we were comfortable. She was very friendly and got along well with our dog, she even came along with us for one of our walks and showed us the way. We had a great time and would highly recommend staying here. We hope to return one day, thankyou Kylie for being a great host!

Our third time staying at Brokenback & we will definitely be back. The villa is lovely and very well appointed, great location close by to all of Hunter Valley’s attractions. The veranda with a comfortable lounge is a highlight, watching the stars at night from there is magical.

Sonia was friendly and quick to respond. the villa was beautiful and private. perfect for a weekend away. the spa was always heated and the small touches like chocolates and a bottle of wine was extremely thoughtful. I would definitely recommend Casa da Vina to anyone looking for a peaceful yet private weekend escape
