Very impressed with this property. Check-in was super easy, and the communication with the property managers was much appreciated. The property itself is perfect for a large group. Each bedroom with its own bathroom worked great for our group of 14. A great property, would stay again!
The property was wonderful.
The house and garden spacious
It was great that each bedroom had its own bathroom.
The house was very easy to warm up with the multiple ACs and combustion fire.
The separate studio did have a lot of little bugs and ants, so may need a visit from pest control.
We had such a great trip. Hoise had everything we needed.

Loved our stay
We had a lovely time
Great for family and grand children
I think the outside could have been cleaner bird poo on veranda and outdoor furniture
Great location
Pool room and second accommodations not up to scratch
We did get some money back though
Elderslie House was well maintained and the fact that every bedroom has it's own ensuite made it perfect for our extended family getaway. It would also be great for a large group of friends. The living areas were spacious and the kitchen had everything you need including a Nespresso machine. The games room was well used during our stay. We enjoyed the semi rural setting and have already recommended it to our friends. We would definitely stay there again!

Space and Comfort
Elderslie House provided our extended family with plenty of room to relax both inside and out. The house is well stocked with kitchen basics, board games,books and out door furniture on all areas of the upstairs and downstairs verandahs. The yard and pool were great for the kids and we didn't even make it to the pool room which we will have to enjoy next time. The gardens create a lovely haven surrounding the house to explore. Thank you for the wine, olive oil and balsamic vinegar! Very nice to be spoilt with gifts on our arrival. Certainly set the mood straight away.
The property was fine, as described and well stocked kitchen, comfortable beds etc. However the property was badly affected by the rain. We could not use the studio at all, which meant we had to sleep in lounge rooms and share beds (not ideal since it was a work trip), the games room was also flooded and could only be used for a short time when the water reseeded. We had to wade through ankle deep water to even get in and out of the property. If it wasn't heavy rain everything would have been ok. Property manager helpful and responsive, thank you

Amazing weekend at the beautiful Elderslie House
I can highly recommend Elderslie House for your next Hunter Valley holiday. The house is absolutely beautiful, accompanied by gorgeous gardens, pool and excellent facilities.
Elderslie House is close enough to the vineyards of the Hunter Valley and far enough away to get an authentic country getaway. The layout of the house is so unique in that all my guests had their own bedroom and bathroom. The kitchen, dining and lounge areas are so big that there is room for everyone to enjoy all the cute and cosy lounges, deck chairs and veranda spaces. The kitchen was well equipped with everything you’d need for a BBQ, quiet dinner or a family banquet. All the rooms were clean and welcoming and the property had so many areas to explore and enjoy. There is the pool area, games room, garden, vast verandas and communal areas to share with your family and friends.
I would highly recommend Elderslie House and will definitely be booking again for my next holiday in The Hunter Valley.
From start to finish, the owners were friendly and welcoming and catered to all our needs and requirements.
If you're looking for a family or group holiday, look no further than Elderslie House. You won't be disappointment. You'll be amazed!
The property was excellent. Much better than the pictures. Well maintained and well presented. The games room is well equipped for the adults and children alike.
Overall, our family enjoyed the stay. It's a great property for the family gatherings with plenty of space and something for all age groups.
Highly recommend this property.
Plenty of room within the home.Had great beds to sleep on so comfortable. The hose has a gorgeous fire place and it extremely warm.With a beautiful out look onto properties all around Definitely would stay here again
The elderslie house was what we expected and more. We had such a great weekend away with friends. Facilities were great, everything was clean, couldn’t have asked for a better stay.
The games room and pool were great for the children, and en-suite bedrooms were a plus for our large group. Bathroom fixtures were a bit worn, when the shower head wasn’t working well property managers tried their best to help. Overall we enjoyed our stay.
