Ravensdale Retreat Reviews
One of the most stunning places I've seen
We just returned from having a celebration here with Family and I couldn’t ask for a better venue!! It was so beautiful - honestly one of the most stunning places I’ve seen. Lee the caretaker was outstanding and showed me around where I could take photos. She answered all the questions I had and had so much knowledge of the property! The kids had the best time and so did the adults. Would highly recommend - it was beautiful. The pizza oven, the lake, the valleys, the lights, the animals, veggie garden, spa - I can’t even go through it all and just an FYI - they have everything! Everything is fully stocked - outstanding, I will be back!

Home away from home
Ravensdale Retreat is a home away from home. It has all the amenities and facilities one would expect when on holidays. Luxurious, secluded and pristine. We love holidaying at Ravensdale

Perfect if you are wanting to get away from it all
This property is better than the photos! It is incredibly well-appointed and comfortable, and easily accommodated our extended family. Hunter Valley Stays were a pleasure to deal with, and the booking and check-in process was seamless. The location is perfect if you are wanting to get away from it all - but within an hour of Sydney. Everything was perfect - thank you!

Lovely property and beautiful surroundings. Ted and Leah welcomed us warmly when we arrived. The place had everything we needed and more. Great memories were made over the weekend to celebrate my mums 70th birthday.

It was a pleasure to stay at Ravensdale
Ravensdale is simply incredible. The property is amazing- the house and cottage are spacious and modern with a warm feel. The grounds are breath taking with so many different areas to enjoy. What we were most impressed with was the attention to detail. Every little thing is well thought out - you don't want for anything. The property and the grounds are also immaculately kept- Ravensdale is an absolute 5 star stay.

I had the most magical weekend possible. Ravensdale retreat is the most beautiful property I have ever been to and everything was perfect. I cannot thank Ted and his team enough.

We loved staying at this incredibly beautiful place
The pictures don't do the place justice...we couldn't get over how incredibly stunning the house and the surroundings were. Ted and Jenny have thought about absolutely everything from a well equipped kitchen to the Sonos system to the overall beautifully designed home and manicured land surrounding the house! We certainly want to come back and cannot recommend this place enough! Thank you Ted & Jenny for your hospitality and helping us out getting the pizza oven working, the pizzas turned out amazing and so did the rest of the long weekend away!

Impeccable
A few words would not do the property justice. Simply put it was an amazing stay for us. Not only the property but all the little things from housekeeping who keep the place in good order hugely contributed to the enjoyment. Cleanliness was impeccable.

Luxury Country Retreat - Only 60 mins from Sydney
A superb property in a beautiful setting. The house is magnificently presented with every creature comfort you could want. Such generous indoor and out door spaces with the pavilion and pool overlooking the stunning property. We loved every minute of our weekend.

Magnificent!
We just spent 3 nights at Ravensdale Retreat, and what a magnificent place to stay. Beautifully appointed house, stunning views and the most relaxed atmosphere you could Imagine. Heide, the manager, was amazing.....no request was too difficult. The level of luxury was exquisite. The kids loved the pool and spa, and all the room in the world to run around. The Pavilion was the parents domain.....so relaxing and what an outlook.
Simon - Sep, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays
What an amazing house!
What an amazing home with all high quality touches. Restful outlook across the valley. Beautiful comfortable rooms. Attention to detail in all aspects of the accommodation was second to none. Personal touch when we arrived being met at the property. Would highly recommend.

Fantastic Stay!
Ravensdale was excellent, property manager Heide was awesome, and Ted the owner showed us around his farm which went above and beyond. We had a fabulous time.
Karen - Jun, 2019 via Hunter Valley Stays
Spectacular!
Ravensdale Retreat was excellent. Spacious, clean, plenty of cooking utensils for cooking for large numbers, great pool and outdoor area. Beds and bedding were super comfortable, plenty of towels supplied, along with portacot and high chair. The property manager Heide was awesome, we had fruit from the orchard and fresh herbs together with Nespresso capsules and Ted the owner showed us around his property next door which went above and beyond. Our family group of 8 adults and 8 kids had a fabulous time.”

Absolutely amazing!
Our stay at Ravensdale Retreat was amazing and is hard to describe in words how wonderful and relaxing our time was there. Everything about this property is absolutely sublime from the exterior to the interior. It has everything you could ever want to experience in a rural environment for both adults and children. It offers such a peaceful feeling and at the same time offers fun with so many activities such as swimming, fishing and animals to see. This area is so beautiful and majestic and was thoroughly enjoyed, especially under the pavilion area overlooking the property both day and night. After experiencing Ravensdale Retreat this has now become our most favourite place to visit and we look forward to staying there many more times in the future. Out of 10 it would be a solid 11!
