This was exactly what we were looking for: a cosy and comfortable B&B in a central position in the Hunter Valley. Marie was the perfect, friendly host recommending restaurants and tours, and providing a lovely breakfast each morning out on the deck overlooking beautiful scenery.

I've stayed in 4 star hotels but Elfin Hill is better than any I've stayed in. We ended up staying there because of a double booking of another B & B. Marie was a perfect host. We stayed in the Traminer room which was lovely. The bathroom was clean, the bed was comfy but best of all was the included... More

We were attending a friend's wedding in Pokolbin and were looking for a place to spend a couple of nights to make a weekend away of it. The accommodation in the Hunter Valley is generally overpriced and not always that great so we were delighted to find Elfin Hill. The property is beautiful and relaxing, with bushland, a little dam,... More

My friend and I stayed here while we were exploring the Hunter Valley wine region. What a great find! The rooms were very comfortable and the scenery was incredible. Mary, the host, was wonderful and provided all kinds of great recommendations, including a wine trail map. The included breakfast was delicious. Overall a great experience, would highly recommend!

Don't expect a 5star luxury hotel. It's not! But it's such a perfect spot to explore the Hunter Valley, great and lovely host (thank you Marie), wonderful place, gorgeous appartments and great breakfast with homemade jam and marmelade etc. and a beautiful view into the garden and valley. Best place to calm down! Cheers Thomas and Haakon Passionate Travellerscheck

Perfect holiday at Elfin Hill!!! We stayed in the cottage; quietly surrounded by fabulous views. Many thanks to Marie for her fantastic hospitality yet preserving the privacy and gorgeous breakfast. It was such a lovely place that we did not even want to leave; and definitely we are going back! Highly recommended to check "the cottage" - the hidden treasure!... More

We had a fantastic one night stay at Elfin Hill and will definately be returning. Marie, the owner was a fantastic host and probably made the whole experience even better. Marie gave us a great tour of the property, was lovely and even turned the heater on in our room before our arrival so that it would be nice and... More

... It really was. Came to the Hunter Valley to celebrate my mum's 60th birthday, so I planned it to be a special weekend away... and a special weekend we got! Particularly because of Elfin Hill. Marie, the owner, could not have been a better host. From the early beginnings, when I was first emailing her questions and booking the... More

We had the most amazing weekend at Elfin Hill! Marie was so very lovely, and we had no complaints what so ever. The breakfasts were beautiful and the views are incredible - we never wanted to leave!
