French doors open up from the living area on to a generous full-length rear verandah, so you can relax outside, enjoy a bbq whilst taking in the peaceful views across Dolina’s five bushland acres and fully fenced dam. A new kitchen with coffee machine will be the perfect place to create plates of gourmet fare from local providores, and why not crack open a fine bottle Hunter wine from your cellar door visits.    Staying in the Dolina’s barn located adjacent to the main house is a real treat. What may appear to be a regular barn from the outside is a very stylish story on the inside. Featuring two beautifully appointed 'Hampton-esque' guest suites, up to four guests will enjoy the high ceilings, luxurious bedding as well as a glamorous full bathroom with deep claw foot tub and chandelier.   And for those who enjoy a game or two, the barn also features a pool table to entertain guests.  Both the main house and guest barn are fully air-conditioned throughout to be enjoyed in any season. Dolina is the perfect blend of location, charm and style for your next group or family stay in the Hunter Valley.
