We arrived as the sun was setting, and the view across the working vineyard was gorgeous – and matched by the warm welcome from our hosts.
Overall rating? Outstanding
What makes Kurrara Cottages Retreat different?
The warmth of the welcome – fresh carrot cake helped! – and the sense of peace that envelops you as soon as you arrive. It is one of those places that feel right from the moment you walk through the door..

Our cottage had a queen-size bed and was perfect for a romantic getaway. All linen and toiletries are supplied.

Why stay longer?
The best thing about this place was the wonderful feeling of relaxation that descended on us as soon as we arrived. It was lovely to slip into the spa pool and watch the sunset over the vines. Our favourite thing was to relax in the spa pool while enjoying the view over the vines. We also had a lovely meal at the Blue Wren Restaurant and the Mudgee Farmer’s Market is a brilliant experience.
Why you wouldn’t stay longer?
I can’t think of a reason you would want to leave – the cottage is relaxing and romantic, Mudgee is close by and there is plenty to do in the surrounding area. Of course work and family demands may call you back to reality sooner than you would like.
