Verona House - 7 bedroom - Enormous 7 bdrm, 7 bthrm house with fabulous pool in the heart of Pokolbin!

Kitchen was well equipped Pool was fun

The property was great for our group of 12 . Close to wineries and Harrigan's pub . If you need a property at the Hunter Valley I urge you to go to the 7 bedroom Verona House at Pokolbin !

Plenty of room for everyone. Kitchen very well appointed.

Second time staying at Verona, great grand old home with lots of space for a group.

We all had a fabulous time at this house. It was the perfect setting for a massive couples weekend away. Plenty of rooms and bathrooms, and brilliant gathering space. It wasn't the most modern, and if I was to be quite honest it was rather eclectic in nature, but it was in a brilliant location, and totally enabled us to gather well. The beds were a perfect size, but many need mattress toppers as they are extremely hard, so I would request that the owners provide this for guests that don't like rock hard beds. We would stay there again, but my advise to others would be to take a mattress topper so you can sleep.

Verona House is huge and extremely well equipped to cater for a large group: the kitchen has plenty of crockery, glassware, saucepans, cutlery & saucepans etc. plus tea, coffee etc. The lounge is large with a woodburning fire but because of its size was rather difficult to heat, especially as we chose probably the coldest weekend of the winter so far to stay there. Conversely there is no air conditioning in the house, apart from the loft room, which could make it uncomfortable in the heat of summer. The bedrooms again were rather cold, even though small oil filled radiator heaters were on when we arrived, but the king-size beds were very comfortable and had doonas and extra blankets. The showers were lovely and warm too. Unfortunately we were unable to take advantage of the enormous swimming pool but it looked lovely, although it appeared to have no shade around it if you were there in summer. We were a party of 13 adults in our 60's & 70's and had a wonderful time and would recommend Verona House to any large groups looking for a week-end getaway.

Will stay again

The reason we were there was my husband and my 50th wedding anniversary. Everyone had space, no crowding, plenty of room for meals.

We had a brilliant weekend, weather was perfect. The pool was awesome and the location of the property was great. We spent most of our time on the back deck and in the pool. We were not expecting a lot because of all the reviews. If you read Margaret’s review from September last year it explains it all precisely. Obviously they have not taken any notice of the reviews because nothing has changed. This home has so much potential. What I would do to start with is get all new mattresses everyone complained how hard they were and the mattresses in the attic were worse with springs coming through. Not good lighting in the bathrooms. We could not get the TV to work either. On a positive note, the home has a great location we walked to the Hunter Valley Gardens and set out of the bedrooms and bathrooms were good too. Enough crockery for us all and the dining room was great to all sit together to have our meals. We did not use the lounge room as we were mostly outside on the deck. Loved the high ceilings. Unfortunately it just needs a lot of work. But this did not stop us from having a brilliant weekend with brilliant friends.

10 Dads for a golf weekend and it was an awesome place for us. Couldn’t be more perfectly situated.
