WHAT OUR GUESTS SAY
“ We were utterly charmed by the Cook’s Cottage - wish we lived here full time! A beautifully renovated boutique cottage on a real working farm, with AC and fans in most rooms, two comfortable bedrooms, a great kitchen and choice of roomy indoor and outdoor living & dining areas. Wave hello to the kangaroos beside the driveway on arrival, take a soak in the amazing claw footed tub, have your morning cuppa as you watch the sun rise over the paddocks from the deck. And, of course, explore wine country! Angela is a great host, very responsive and helpful. She has done a magical job transforming on old country cottage into a delightful boutique hideaway with a real sense of style. We’ll be back! ”

“Absolutely fantastic accommodation in the Hunter! Myself and three old school friends stayed at Corunna Station when we caught up for a small reunion. It was perfect for us. Wonderful place to chill, chat and catch up, as well as being an ideal base to explore the wonderful Hunter Valley Wineries etc. We also enjoyed a superb meal at Spicer’s Vineyard... top notch! Would love to come back and stay at Corunna again.”
Ingrid - The Country House
The Cook's House “This is truly the most beautiful stay in the Hunter. Surrounded by paddocks, Roo’s, and a stones throw from some very lovely wineries, you can return, sit back, crack open a red and watch the sun drop behind the mountains in the distance. Very chilled, stylish and relaxed home with exquisite finishes and touches. We arrived a few days before our wedding to settle in and settle in we did with cheese boards, wines and some quiet time! We were so relaxed on the day - just slowly getting ready. Our pre wedding photos look amazing. This is the home or farm stay you have been looking for. Book it now - don’t hesitate. This is the stay you have been searching for whether it’s for a special weekend, gig, get together with friends or even just some me time. You will be very well looked after by Angela. Best Stay. Book and enjoy!.”

Max - The Country House, The Cook’s House & The Homestead
“Corunna Station was absolutely stunning. The property itself was a lovely place to walk around and explore or just watch the kangaroos of which there were plenty. As for the accommodations we had both The Cooks house and the Country house and they were both beautifully maintained with everything you could ever want for a memorable time with a large group. We chose to stay in for dinners and enjoy all the house had to offer. All seven couples thought this was one of the best places they had ever stayed. We were all blown away with the decor.”
