MORPETH COTTAGE - spacious & perfect for weddings

Nestled in the outskirts of Morpeth, close to the Hunter River is the charming Morpeth Cottage which offers unique cottage accommodation in a peaceful and private location. Suited just as well for quiet family retreats or small social gatherings this Morpeth hotel is perfectly situated for guests who wish to take advantage of the many places of interest in the region.  Whether you would like to take in the rich history of Newcastle and visit its many cafes, restaurants and museums - or prefer the tranquillity of the glorious beaches at Port Stephens, where the clear waters are home to schools of dolphins and whales, you will find them both within easy reach. But probably the most popular attraction in the region is the multitude of wineries in the world-renowned Hunter Valley, which is a short drive from our Morpeth accommodation. Many of the wineries were established over 150 years ago, making Hunter Valley Australia’s oldest and foremost wine region. Guided tours of the wineries and wine tasting are always high on the list of things to do with guests in our cottage accommodation in Morpeth.   The cottage itself is dated back to the late 19th century, but with its tasteful and elegant décor makes a successful marriage between the old and new. The bright and airy rooms immediately create an impression of spaciousness which is enhanced by high ceilings and a deliberate effort to keep clutter at bay. With a huge footprint of 220 square metres in open plan and a wrap-around veranda, the 8 people that can be accommodated in the cottage will have no trouble finding space to relax or socialise.   On checking in, which is done simply, with no hanging around, guests will find 3 large bedrooms containing 3 king-sized beds and one bunk bed, all graced by luxury linens and air conditioning (which is present throughout the cottage). A well-appointed kitchen with high quality white goods and accessories, which is also stocked with a basic supply of pantry items, lends itself to home cooking - and the huge timber dining table will only add to the ambience of meal times.    We have supplied the pantry with cooking items that you might not think to bring with you if you plan on cooking, but if there is something else you need, we are more than happy to supply extra items on request.   Other features that help to make your stay perfect and continue to make this the best accommodation in Morpeth are free Wi-Fi throughout, full length mirrors in each bedroom, a work station, and a large smart TV on the wall of the lounge area.    With the assurance that the cottage is professionally cleaned and Covid safe, you can relax and simply enjoy your stay at this boutique hotel in Morpeth.   So, when you are looking for a getaway in a boutique hotel in Morpeth with a peaceful, easy-going atmosphere, great surroundings and a fantastic year-round climate, the Morpeth Cottage will be just what you need.
