Holiday rentals with a fireplace in Lake Macquarie

Mona’s place is thoughtfully designed and practical. We were a group of friends getting away for some R&R - and it was perfect! We enjoyed being surrounded by lush greenery and the sauna and ice bath experience was a bonus! Overall a great holiday home to unwind. Plus, Copacabana Beach was just a 5min walk away, thanks to a handy shortcut, with some local cafés on the way. Highly recommend!

Wonderful spot to chill out and get away from the hustle and bustle. Next time we will bring our laptop to access streaming (netflix etc) as it is not possible to access streaming on the smart TV and sadly the DVD player is rendered useless without a remote control. Otherwise a great Airbnb to relax and enjoy the Hunter.

Amy was very easy to communicate and very responsive. The house was homely and had everything we needed for a comfortable stay.

I had an amazing experience staying at Justin’s place! The house was exactly as described—clean, cozy, and the view was outstanding.. The location was perfect, easy to find. Justin was incredibly welcoming and made sure we had everything we needed, fantastic instructions which made our stay so easy. The house had such a homey feel and we made some very special family memories. Overall, it was a fantastic stay, and I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone visiting the area. I will definitely stay here again next time I’m in town!

From the moment we walked in to the house, we felt right at home. The house is beautifully appointed and very comfortable. Lovely space for people and pups.

I had a wonderful stay at this serene and picturesque property. The tranquil atmosphere and stunning views made it a perfect getaway. One of my favorite experiences was collecting fresh eggs in the morning to cook breakfast – such a unique touch! I would recommend bringing or locating mosquito repellent right away, as the lush greenery around the house attracts quite a few mosquitoes. The host does provide mosquito repellent, but it’s stored in the cabinet, so it’s worth checking for it as soon as you arrive. The highlight of my stay was the kindness of the neighbors. I borrowed a pair of boots to walk down to the river, and a lovely woman next door went out of her way to find the right size for me. Although I didn’t catch her name, I deeply appreciated her helpfulness. Overall, it was a memorable experience, and I would love to return. Thank you for sharing this lovely property!

The Nords is truly a hidden gem! This holiday home has everything you could need for a perfect getaway—from a fantastic pool and cozy firepit to a fun pool table and plenty of space to relax. The house itself was spacious, well-equipped, and thoughtfully stocked with everything we needed. The atmosphere was peaceful, making it an ideal place to unwind. We had an amazing stay and will definitely be back in the future!

Great space, nicely set up for large families. The house was bright and had a lovely feel. Just a 7 min drive to the beaches. We liked Copacabana for swimming and parts of Avoca for the dog beach.

This apartment was stunning with gorgeous views in a great location. We used to live across the street and loved the feeling of being back home. Will definitely use as our base when we’re back on the coast next time!

We had a wonderful stay! Overlooking Pittwater through the trees, the studio is serene and beautiful. We loved all the nice touches like the huge bath, air con, cheese and biscuits provided and new appliances. The studio was immaculately clean and styled, and everything had clearly been thought through so well. We could typically park out the front. The steps / boardwalk are shared with the house below, but the studio still feels very private. You can walk down to Whale Beach but the hill back is very steep (like everywhere in the area) so we ended up driving more often. This Airbnb is also close to Jonah’s. Rebecca was also a responsive and helpful host. Would recommend for a relaxing getaway!

Ed and Kerry’s Bouddi Bungalow was the perfect hamlet for a weekend relaxing. The unit is beautifully presented and spotless. It has a fully equipped kitchen if you are so inclined, however there are fab restaurants a stone’s throw away. Or grab a pizza and watch the sunset over Brisbane Waters before the short stroll back to the unit. It’s a quiet retreat, with the only noise being the local kookaburras and lorikeets greeting you good morning. The listing does specify there is no air con, and it can get a little warm however there are plenty of Dyson fans and a lovely verandah to sit on, did I mention it’s right by the water..?! Ed and Kerry were super responsive and provide loads of info on the area too. I would recommend this listing, and I would stay again.

Our stay was with our adult children and grandchild and there were 3 different living areas as well as an enormous balcony so enough space for different activities at the same time. So convenient to the beach, restaurants and shops. We parked the cars until we left. Great to see the home and garage as described (easily fitted 2 large cars). The lift from the garage was not working but Lane had advised they were waiting on parts so we just used the stairs without a problem. There is also a private lift down to the front of the building and this is the way we left and entered most times. Would be more than happy to stay again.

Beautiful location, lovely apartment, wonderful coffee shop down stairs and restaurants close by.

This is a great place that would suit a lot of people. There were 6 of us staying and the apartment was spacious and we appreciated the considerate inclusions such as beach towels and pantry items. Walked to a local restaurant for dinner and because Amanda generously let us check out a bit later, we walked to Nobby’s beach for a swim before the drive back to Sydney.

Amazing place with amazing views. The property was clean and it was a great experience

I had a fantastic stay at this apartment! The place is spotless, beautifully furnished, and equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. The building offers excellent amenities, including the pool and the gym, making the experience even better. The host was incredibly kind, always available, and quick to respond to any questions, ensuring a smooth and stress-free stay. I highly recommend this apartment and would definitely book again.

Beautiful house well presented and much appreciated on having the opportunity to stay there

Very clean, spacious and tidy home. Perfect spot for a large group to getaway/attend functions or concerts. Took advantage of the pool close by and enjoyed the serenity. Awesome place and great communication from Charlie 😊

This place is magical. We returned a second year in a row and this time was even better. If you want to get off the grid and forget Covid, masks and all the stresses of life, the Villa doesn’t disappoint!

Carla’s house was beautiful! The landscape was stunning and the house itself is gorgeous while being homey and comfortable. The beds were SO comfy!! Everyone raved about the great sleeps they had. The kitchen had everything you needed. Great stay and would come back again

Extremely beautiful surroundings, right in the middle of a vineyard. seeing the hot air balloons in the mistake in the morning and the kangaroos feeding at dusk completed the beautiful stay!

good place good people

The photos are extremely accurate, lovely two bedroom villa. We had a very relaxing time here, plenty of books and a few games to choose from to keep ourselves entertained as well. Aircon and fans in the bedrooms and living rooms. A well appointed villa in a lovely part of the world

Our third time staying at Brokenback & we will definitely be back. The villa is lovely and very well appointed, great location close by to all of Hunter Valley’s attractions. The veranda with a comfortable lounge is a highlight, watching the stars at night from there is magical.
