Perfect Little Getaway

My sister's family and my family stayed here for a quick weekend getaway for A Day on the Green. It was a great property and the kids absolutely had a ball. There was plenty of room for our two families. Would definitely love to go back.

We had a fabulous time celebrating my partners 30th birthday weekend. The hosts were so lovely and allowed us to have people visit for a BBQ. The place is perfect for both entertaining and for a relaxing weekend away taking in the breathtaking landscape and relaxed atmosphere. The animals were very entertaining also!

Great Property

Fantastic house in a great location. Kids were able to explore the property and interact with lots of animals over our stay. Catherine was fantastic giving the kids jobs which they really enjoyed doing to help out on the farm with the animals. Extremely generously stocked fridge/pantry to make the stay even more comfortable.

We enjoyed our family stay at Poppa’s. The peacefulness and views were the highlight. It was nice to visit somewhere a little off the beaten path but still not too far from the centre of the Hunter. The house was large with room for all of us and was so kid friendly with an outdoor playground and games for the kids. We appreciated the extra touches such as chocolates, wine and port. While the property is a little dated we liked the rustic charm. The kids had a ball playing on the hay bails and loved looking after the chooks. We enjoyed going for a nice countryside walk to visit the cows and horses too. Overall we had a lovely stay at this property.

Great holiday!

We came with family and friends, 8 of us all had a lovely, relaxed and enjoyable stay with Tony and Catherine. The place was amazing, great views from balcony and rooms, we saw incredible moon rise, sunset, milk-way, misty mountain…. So spacious indoor and kids friendly outdoor play area, with fun to play with chickens, alpacas, cows… will definitely go back next time. Highly recommend

Amazing property

Catherine and Tony have thought of everything you’ll need when you come to stay at Poppa’s Olives. The property was easy to get to. It was clean and well stocked with all the essentials. It’s super close to Pokolbin for wine tasting etc. it was cosy and Compton and it felt like home away from home. We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you!

Weekend Laughter

The property was wonderful. The verandah with it's incredible view of the valley and mountains beyond was my favourite seating spot. The kitchen set up was brilliant especially the big stove and oven. Ample space for everyone and the kids had equipment to play on, and enjoyed helping with the farm chores.

Weekend Getaway

Absolutely loved our 3 nights at Poppas Olives, the kids said it was the best holiday ever, didn't want to leave and want to go back every year. The kids were in charge of feeding the animals, we absolutely loved the friendly cows, who would moo at us for food, Barry the horse was very cheeky and the alpacas, they spit. The view was amazing, it was so peaceful, the house was well stocked and spacious enough for 2 families with 5 kids altogether. Away from the Hunter buzz, but not too far to enjoy all the Hunter has to offer.
