Company information

The Blackmore family moved to Elfin Hill 24 yrs ago where it is a happy, relaxed and peaceful spot to live. They really enjoy the company and meeting of guests from all over the world and have made many friends on the way. They are water lovers which seems strange since they have lived in the country for many years. Whilst currently away on a long sailing adventure, we have stepped in as Managers in this very special piece of paradise. We get to wake up everyday to the kookaburras, enjoy the beautiful bird life and visits from the kangaroos. Join us here and enjoy the peaceful Australian bush surrounds with what has to be the most magnificent view in the Hunter Valley.

Property information

Elfin Hill, the first accommodation built within the vineyard area. Having a unique elevated position with spectacular views, we are within the dress circle of the original grape growers. We are proud owners, sharing our peaceful space with our family and travellers is very rewarding & enjoyable to us, It is so lovely to meet other people, we enjoy their company. We love what we do. Our property has 7 rows of table grapes, the best view and stunning sunsets, peaceful, relaxing and serene making it a tranquil environment to relax. There are chickens, organic gardens and fruit trees. Bees = honey. We rely totally on harvested rainwater,filtered and toally safe to drink. we recycle everything we possibly can and have solar energy for power and hot water. We are well on the way to being "green" - We care about our environment. The salt water swimming pool is refreshing and perfect for cooling off after a day out enjoying the Hunter Valley and all it has to offer. Come and stay and enjoy the experience.

Neighbourhood information

Surrounded by vineyards and some grazing cattle we have a fabulous neighbourhood.Our community is supportive and super friendly. Peacefully tucked away yet so close to all the very best that the wine region has to offer.
