Parking & Directions
Join us out in wine country, won’t you? If you’re opting for a scenic road trip, your journey to the heart of Hunter Valley will take about two hours from Sydney or one hour from Newcastle.
Once you’re here, there’s plenty of space to park with no charge. We wouldn’t be surprised if you didn’t get back on the road until you head home, but if you’d like to explore the region, you can easily access your vehicle with safe onsite self parking.
Getting around without your own set of wheels is easy, too. Hire a car for the best flexibility, or we can connect you with a range of shuttle services that will transport you from one stunning vineyard to the next. The most popular options include Polkobin Hire Cars, Vineyard Shuttle Service, and iHop Hunter Valley.
