Located in the Hunter Valley, lose yourself in the magic that defines Millfield Homestead, a luxury farmhouse escape where every detail has been curated to enhance beauty and feed your soul.
Wake to the bird’s morning chorus, star-gaze at night, dine alfresco under the arbor, relax poolside or head down to the hut for a massage or yoga session to align your chakras. Time spent at Millfield Homestead will melt away the city tension and reset the mind.
A luxury country escape oozing farmhouse charm, this picture-postcard getaway is a place to reconnect with family and friends against a stunning backdrop of glorious gardens and sweeping valley views, a place where every detail has been carefully considered to enhance comfort and feed the soul.
Enjoy quality linen on cloud-like beds, a deep bath for a lengthy soak, a stunning plunge pool for an instant refresh, and beautifully selected furnishings delivering insta-worthy views at every turn. A well-appointed kitchen will delight any gourmet and a collection of alfresco options including a wrap-around verandah, a beautiful arbor and a sheltered BBQ area ticking every box for outdoor dining. Ducted air-conditioning and a cozy combustion fire (wood supplied from 1st May -30th September) ensure comfort across every season. Each thoughtful inclusion has been provided to ensure you enjoy a relaxed home-away-from-home experience.
Appealing to a wide range of guests including a group of friends wanting to explore the world-class Hunter Valley Vineyards, families in need of a relaxing break, or those celebrating a special milestone, Millfield Homestead offers something for everyone in a setting of breathtaking beauty.
Within easy reach of iconic wineries and cellar doors, hatted and casual restaurants, and the art-centric community of Wollombi, Millfield is typified by open fields, blues skies, and a rolling mountain backdrop. A local café can provide your daily caffeine fix or breakfast should you choose to go out, and Cessnock CBD can be reached within a 10 minute drive. Wedding parties and wedding guests will love our proximity to Redleaf (9 minutes) and Stonehurst (6 minutes) two of the Hunter Region’s most beautiful wedding venues.
With exquisite gardens to explore (including a food forest), a yoga/meditation/massage hut to chill, a trickling creek and an abundance of nature and fresh country air, revival is guaranteed.
A stay at Millfield Homestead allows you to do as much or as little as you please.

This place is glorious!!! Would definitely come back.Highlights were the outdoor bath and pool.The host was super nice and great on the comms. Plus, the house had great amenities. We were so sad to leave. Highly recommended.
We just spent five days at the Millfield Homestead with our family, and it was a wonderful experience. From the moment we booked, the communication from the owner, Emma, was exceptional—clear, friendly, and helpful. The peaceful country setting made our stay even more special, with kangaroos often spotted around the property and beautiful morning coffees enjoyed on the verandah. The house had everything we needed, and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Highly recommend!
Lovely property and outdoor spaces. We had a big group of friends together for a 40th birthday weekender and the massive dining table was great, plus such a relaxing and beautiful location.
A bit far from the main areas for wine tasting and restaurants so we needed to drive to get there but was easy enough to organise a bus hire to take around wineries
Fantastic for our large family celebrating my husband’s 70th birthday! Plenty of room for all ages, great dining table for our celebration lunch and dinners, kids loved the wildlife and the room outside to run around! They loved the outside bath and everyone enjoyed the pool. Wonderful memories made . Thank you!
Our extended family gathered to celebrate my Mum’s 80th birthday. The house comfortably accommodated 13 adults and the combustion fireplace and ducted heating kept us nice and cosy on the chilly winter mornings and evenings. During the day, we enjoyed the nearby wineries and roo spotting from the verandah. One night we fired up the outdoor pizza oven for a casual dinner under the stars. Both the house and setting are delightful: we had a memorable long weekend!
We had an incredible stay at Millfield Homestead. The house itself is beautiful, spacious, and thoughtfully designed—perfect for our group of 10 adults. The surrounding property is stunning, with kangaroos in the paddock next door adding to the charm.One of the standout features was the incredibly well-stocked kitchen. It had everything we could possibly need, from proper indoor and outdoor serveware to thoughtful extras like glad wrap, scissors, oil, and even pens. It made meal prep and dining so easy and enjoyable.The homestead is truly a memorable and special place. Peaceful, picturesque, and with every detail considered—we couldn’t have asked for a better getaway. Highly recommend and would absolutely stay again
