Curated with old and new treasures, this pretty three bedroom cottage is set behind a white picket fence a stone's throw from the mighty Hunter River and overlooking the historic St James Anglican Church.

Stroll to Morpeth's heritage-listed main street, picnic on the river bank and dine at the lauded Boydell's Cellar Door and Restaurant (50m from the back gate). A luxe sojourn in the lower Hunter awaits.

This charming three bedroom cottage (sleeping five) is the creation of travel writer Sheriden Rhodes and husband (self taught builder, painter, tiler and jack of all trades) Tom Szecsodi.

Take a soak in the freestanding bath, gather round the wood fire in cooler weather with a glass of wine in hand or enjoy a G&T on the front verandah at sunset. We're a short five minute drive from the new Maitland Hospital in nearby Metford.

There are two (identical) guest rooms offering classic queen size iron beds, AH Beard plush mattresses and fine linen. A third bedroom offers a single nickel cast iron bed with crisp cotton sheets, a desk and office chair. The wifi is fast if you need to work from home. A cute laundry with separate toilet and washing machine is available for those on the road and longer stays.

In the stylish bathroom with herringbone tile floors enjoy Grown Alchemist amenities.

The River Haus features gorgeous old treasures including ship's rope, vintage kitchen scales, Bentwood chair, steamship trunk coffee table and weather beaten boat oars. New treasures include Smart TV, JBL sound bar, wifi, ducted heating and cooling, blackout blinds (including a nifty automatic blind for the back doors), Nectre woodfire, Bosch dishwasher and Bosch gas oven.

Basic pantry items include salt and pepper, olive oil and sugar. Each booking receives a complimentary bottle of Boydell's Wine, milk of choice and local treats.

We are more than happy to accommodate an earlier or later check-in *subject to availability (*no other guest check-in or check out on departure or arrival day). Please ask us about this.

*We accept trained, well behaved pets on request. Please message us to discuss.

We offer a fully fenced yard which is great for kids and pets (on request). Please message before booking. There is an additional charge for bringing pets ($100 for one dog and $150 for two dogs).

**If you require the use of only one queen size bedroom midweek (Sun-Thurs nights) please message us for a more affordable rate. We also offer a third bedroom with a single bed charged at an additional $50 per night midweek. If you are staying with five people midweek please add a fifth person to your overall booking.

***Weekend nights are charged at a flat rate whether you require one or two queen size rooms (sleeping four in total). An extra $50 per night, as per above, is charged for use of the third bedroom with the single bed. Please put in five guests if you require the additional single bedroom at time of booking.
