All was wonderful except the non flexible check in. We had an event to get to and even though the host was on site for an hour prior to our check-in time they wouldn’t let us in until 1pm sharp which was when our event started. Otherwise a beautiful location with kangaroos visiting near our verandah.

Clean and quiet cottage. Easy access with keys in lock box. Plenty of space for 2 people. Nespresso machine incl milk frother and pods and milk provided. We only stayed in the cottage for 8 hours overnight so can’t comment further.

Lovely weekend at the wineries!
My husband and I had an absolutely lovely stay at Unlax. Such a peaceful setting, small number of cabins, kangaroos wandering into view of an evening and the birdlife was lovely too. Hospitality inside the cabins was the best I have ever experienced. Very generous meal provisions provided - more than we could eat - and the bed was very comfortable. Location right in the heart of several wineries within walking distance. Will definitely recommend and come again. Thanks so much for making our stay so relaxing and enjoyable.

Escape the city
We had a wonderful 2 night stay at Unlax. The standalone cottages are in a great location and perfect to escape the city and spend some time in nature. They are basic but all the essentials are there and the fireplace was wonderful on the cold winter nights (heating was also available). The cabin was also spotlessly clean and well presented. The only minor gripe we had was that the queen bed, while okay, was not the most comfortable and a little firm for us (but everyone’s preference for beds is different). Steve and Nat were wonderful hosts and we were greeted with a newly lit fire, a glass of sparkling and cheeseboard on arrival which was a nice touch. They also provided the basics for a fry breakfast or cereal. We had a fantastic stay and we would definitely try Unlax again on our next trip to the Hunter.

We stayed in their budget luxury accommodation for our mini-honeymoon just after our wedding. We loved the fact they waited for our arrival, to give us a glass of wine and a tour of the property to let us know where everything was. Only downside to the property really was there were only two towels. But a quick phone call would solve the problem. We loved the spa bath, and loved the little visit from their pup Lexi, her excited face made our afternoon amazing. Overall it was a wonderful week away from home, and loved the wonderful personalities of the husband and wife couple that run the property, and we want you to know how much we appreciated everything you did for us throughout this time.

Lovely, albeit a little chilly in winter
Really pleasant stay. Quite difficult to find the reception in the dark on arrival. Room was very cold, although the do have electric blankets which make it a bit better! Very good complimentary food package and good facilities in the house. Overall a lovely stay and great location for wine tours etc.

We really enjoyed our stay and the location was perfect, close to the popular wineries however it still felt secluded and peaceful. We stayed in cottage 4 which was equipped with everything we needed.

We drove from Sydney & my family (that live locally) met us when we checked into cabin & were waiting for us to get changed to go to an event (in 1/2 hour) at a nearby winery. The person who met us advised that if they waited at cabin, they had to pay $100 to be on the property. Very unwelcoming, especially as cost us almost $600 for one night. Also, no vegetarian/ vegan option for breakfast, no wood for fire, no-one at checkout in the morning - overall very poor service.

Property was lovely, beds clean and very comfortable. Only down side was a two bedroom cost us $530 for the night and a friends Air B&B fell through, Unlax said they accept extras for a ‘fee’ which we were honest about at checkin, the fee which isn’t mentioned in the email turns out to be $100 per person! An uncomfortable roll away bed was offered but the lounge had more padding. We found the ‘fee’ was very excessive given what was offered.

Unlax was a lovely place to stay, very peaceful. The yurt was very comfortable, with everything you could want. Loved the breakfast hamper, very special touch. Very relaxing sitting out on the verandah with a wine and cheese platter. Very central to everything, we had a lovely 4 day break. Only complaint would be the very hard pillows and soft bed, we bought new pillows, lucky we needed some at home.
