Beautiful modern cabins, bed was very comfy! The view from the lake view room was amazing. Being able to walk through the vineyards at sunset was also lovely. Would definitely recommend staying here

Gorgeous location with lovely modern spacious room. Loved seeing the kangaroos around.
The Lane Retreat is an incredible experience, and has become our go-to stay in the Hunter Valley. It's incredibly peaceful, with gorgeous views over the vineyard. Easy to find, and well located within a short drive of many restaurants and wineries.
Thoroughly recommend!
Staying here was such a memorable experience! Waking up to see kangaroos right outside my window felt like something straight out of an Australian postcard. The atmosphere was peaceful, surrounded by nature, and the morning views were absolutely beautiful.
Value for money compared to most other places I've stayed in the Hunter. The Lane Retreat is at the upper end, however the provided breakfasts, the view overlooking the ranges and vineyards, and the ease of a receptionless checkin, makes this the go-to for our future stays.
The perfect getaway when you need so peace and quiet or some quality time with family and friends. Perfect for sunrise and sunset watching alongside a picnic! Easy check in and check out. Ample parking available.
My husband and I went for a stroll around the area and it was pure bliss!
I would 100% recommend.
