Monkey Place Country House - Unique sandstone house in the Hunter - There is nothing like Monkey Place

A perfect place for our adult family. Very clean. Would have been good to have some basic supplies on arrival such as milk, but otherwise I highly recommend.

Eco Retreat is a very cool house with lots of character! Great place to hanger out with friends. Lots of space and beautifully decorated. A great place to explore the Hunter from! It is close to neighbours so be mindful if you are going with a large group! 😊

This is a lovely house with more than enough room for all 6 adults and 1 infant. The house itself was clean and tidy, but the gardens were very leafy and quite messy when we stayed. The house is well very well equipped. The location is within a small suburb style town with not much going on. We had to drive to Wollombi and surrounding towns to see things, but it was still a good base. Great communication with property managers and seamless check in/out.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The garden could do with a tidy as it’s getting overgrown.

the place was beautiful but I don't recommend stay there for the following reasons 1. No fly screen on window or doors. The front and back door are keypad and dont stay unlocked. We kept the door open to avoid having to keep entering the code. There were hundreds of mosquitoes in the bedrooms by the time we ready for bed. There was no bug spray. We thought of vacuuming them but of course the cordless vacuum wasnt charged. took us hours to swat them with a towel to kill them so we could sleep 2. the showers didn't have screens and the bathroom doors didnt lock. Water went ever where and made the bathroom floor slippery. No mop 3. there was no extra blankets and the night were cold. There was electric blankets but not everyone like those. 4. The second night, there was algae gunk on top of the water in the spa which it wasnt chemically treated properly 5. Spa was in the front yard, no lighting so it was a hazard to walk the path. 6. there is a bbq which they expect you to clean after use but dont provide and bbq utensils or brush. 7. One of the showers, the hot water didnt work properly
