Choosing a House for Your Group

Two very different country stays represent the Cessnock & Wollombi region, both near the historic village of Wollombi. One is a family farm with two big self-contained homes; the other is a spread of seven small cottages on a working winery estate. Deciding between them comes down to whether your group wants one shared house or a cluster of private front doors.

How the region's two stays compare:

Wollombi Brook Family Farm Stay, 128 Christina St: a five-bedroom Farmhouse for 14 and a two-bedroom Cottage for six on 52 acres, from $550 per night
Cedar Creek Cottages, 1840 Wollombi Rd: seven self-contained cottages on Stonehurst Cedar Creek, a 550-acre family farm and winery, from $250 per night
One big household or many small ones: the Farmhouse puts up to 14 around a 10-seat table, while Cedar Creek's studios and two-bedroom cottages each have their own verandah and wood fire
Animals on both: alpacas, miniature Galloway cows, horses and silkie chickens at the farm stay; horses, cows and calves in the Cedar Creek paddocks, with kangaroos and wallabies at dawn and dusk
Walking distance or wine trail: the farm stay is within walking distance of Wollombi village, and Cedar Creek is part of the Wollombi Wine Trail with the Stonehurst cellar door on site

Families with children of mixed ages tend to lean towards the farm stay for its heated pool, games room and trampoline, while wedding guests and couples often prefer the self-contained cottages with breakfast left ready.

Common Questions About Group Holiday Rentals

Which stay in Cessnock & Wollombi suits the biggest group?

Wollombi Brook Family Farm Stay's two homes sleep up to 20 when booked together: 14 in the Farmhouse (up to 16 if requested) plus six in the Cottage. Cedar Creek Cottages can house up to 28 across all seven cottages for a wedding, using the sofa beds.

What do the two properties charge?

Wollombi Brook Family Farm Stay is from $550 per night and Cedar Creek Cottages is from $250 per night. Rates depend on which home or cottage you book and how many guests stay.

Are these stays good for children?

The farm stay is set up for them, with a trampoline, tree swing, games room, heated pool and animals that are happy to be fed. Cedar Creek is quieter and geared more to wedding guests, families on a reunion and couples.

Can we taste wine without leaving the property?

At Cedar Creek Cottages, yes: tastings happen at the estate's own Stonehurst cellar door, and Grove Cottage sits right beside it in sandstone. The farm stay is a working farm rather than a winery.
