About this house rental

Iron Gate Estate is well known for its beautiful, architecturally designed Spanish-style winery and cellar door and will, for the first time, welcome guests to the Estates private residence. Set prominently at the top of their 25 acre boutique vineyard this stunning architecturally designed mansion is truly unique and designed to host a maximum of 15 guests who will enjoy the grandeur of 7 bedrooms and 4 huge bathrooms, as well as spacious indoor and outdoor living, dining and entertaining spaces.

Reflecting a traditional Spanish mansion with white stucco walls, wrought iron, and classic European fitting and fixtures, you’ll love the unique details and handcrafted artworks, antiques, rustic terracotta, hand crafted timber windows and painted pottery to add true character and textural elements to Iron Gates' decor.

The design of the residence provides you with complete privacy yet you are only moments away from the leadings attractions and experiences of the Hunter Valley. Conveniently located in the heart of Pokolbin and only an 8-minute drive to the iconic Hunter Valley Gardens, award winning restaurants, concert venues and world-class golf courses. Zip up the road for a casual lunch with views at Twine Restaurant, dine on the terrace at Baume at Ben Ean or order the best salumi and cheese platter in the valley at Usher Tinkler, set in the Old Pokolbin Church.

The European eat-in kitchen with granite bench tops is equipped with modern appliances including an induction stove top, 120cm electric oven, microwave, dishwasher, Expressi coffee machine and fridge/freezer - the kitchen flows out to the outdoor entertaining area.

Sink back into the brocade lounges in the cosy winter living room with open fireplace or enjoy the wide screen tv and chill out spaces in the TV room with surround-sound.

In six of the bedrooms you can swing open the French doors out to your own private terrace and lie back on your sumptuous bed with crisp linen and take in the beautiful breezes of the Hunter.

Perfect for all seasons, and with ducted air-conditioning and fans to all rooms, in winter you’ll enjoy the two wood-burning fireplaces, and in the summer, bask in the sun-drenched terracotta central courtyard and bbq. Step down to an 11 metre sparkling fountain-fed pool with views to the vineyard beyond.

Take time to wander the gardens through the fruit trees and established olive grove to make your way over to the unique cellar door for an unparalleled personalised wine tasting experience of their estate grown wines.

For those staying for a longer guests have access to a large laundry with washing machine and dryer.

Enjoy fun for the whole family with the games room in the garage, featuring table tennis, pool table and darts; perfect for playful challenges and quality time spent together.

Great property with plenty of space for a group of friends to share. Kitchen well equipped for a big cookup. Awesome base for a weekend at the wineries. Outdoor / pool area is amazing for relaxing and taking in the setting.

Check - in was so smooth, place was as described, location was perfect and close to all great wineries Had a great stay, beautiful property.
8 / 10Excellent·Oct 2022
We enjoyed our stay in this residence, the area is very tranquil even though it is in the middle of a working vineyard. There is a lovely garden, a decent bbq in the courtyard and the swimming pool kept the kids entertained. For a large group of close friends or family this house works well as there are a few lounge areas, 2 indoor and 1 outdoor dining areas and 3 bedrooms have an ensuite. There were some minor issues - oven needs a good clean, floors had a lot of dust / dirt in corners, no one could sleep on the trundle bed as it was way too uncomfortable and a lot of things were for small people (glasses and towels mainly).
