For us the location was great, as it was near Margan Wines where we had a wedding. Some of our group had children & so this accomodation was perfect with all the animals around. Side note: there was a large dog roaming about when we checked in. It was super friendly & gentle. We had no issues but I was the only one who wanted to get out of the car so I just wanted to point that out incase anyone else was worried.

You are required to wash the dishes upon exist which is no problem however I do think by doing this cleanliness of glassware & utensils can be overlooked. This was was the case for us as we ended up having to rewash most of the glasses before we could use them. Outdoor chairs & table needed a decent wipe down before we could use them. Nothing a good hose down can't fix.

Loved this place. The staff and owners are lovely and so helpful. The room was large, clean and comfortable and the best part is of course the many alpacas that are right outside your door. They have such big personalities and are adorable, even when throwing a temper tantrum as they want all the food 😜. My favourite part was getting up first thing and feeding them. All you hear are the numerous birds and the odd alpaca and it is so tranquil in an absolutely beautiful setting. Definitely recommend staying here if you love animals.

Nothing really

We are a family of four. Our kids are 7 and 10. This place was outstanding. The booking was easy, and when we called to make some inquiries, everyone was very responsive and friendly. On arrival, the receptionist (Vicky) was so accommodating. The cabins we immaculately clean. That's always the first thing we look at! We rented one of the sandstone cabins, which had the paddock with the animals literally out our back door. The kids LOVED all the animals. They hand-fed all the alpacas, mini horses, donkeys goats... you name it they did it! There were tennis courts on site which we used every day... This really was an awesome "screen Free" get away which is so important for kids. What I personally loved about the whole experience, was giving my kids the confidence to wander off on the property which is all safe. When I was a kid we used to go play during the day and come home when the street lights came on. This doesn't happen these days... It was so good to not worry about the kids, as they explored the different areas of the farm. They were always visible... the place is set up really well. We will be back without a doubt.

Nothing... can't fault the place.

This was a fantastic place for our family to unwind in the sandstone cottage for 2 nights. The staff are amazing. Farmer Quinn was friendly and took time to chat to us and tell us all about the amazing farm he has created! Our children fell in love with the animals, cows, goats, pigs, donkeys and Alpacas. Our son was so sad to leave his friend Murray the goat is still bursting into tears!! Well done to the team on a fantastic place to stay, your passion shows! We will be back soon.

Loved being able to interact with the alpacas and go into their paddock, the kids (7 & 12) had the best time feeding them, despite being sneezed/ spat on, they thought it was hilarious. All of the staff we interacted with were super friendly and helpful. It was nice being able to wander around the farm and see various animals, tennis court was good too. Would definitely stay again.

Nothing about the property specifically. But would recommend stocking up on snacks, essentials etc for families as it’s about 20 min from the main part of the Hunter/ restaurants etc.

The farm animals were delightful to experience. The cottage was comfortable with necessary facilities and private bbq on porch and private car carport, both added bonuses.

Insufficient/missing kitchen utensils enough to accommodate all guests staying in cottage.Towels are placed on beds as there is no towel rack in bathroom except for two small hooks behind door.

It was very calming and a very quiet place to stay with my wife and our 9 year old High Functioning A.S.D Grand Daughter. She enjoyed the freedom to set out with feed bag (supplied) fin hand and feed the vast assortment of animals on the property. Booking online/check in/hospitality/ check out was very easy. Overall the room was absolutely spotless in it's presentation/cleanliness-given that it was on a farm, the presentation was absolutely first rate (the housekeeper should be congratulated!) The pool/tennis court and 'ping pong' table were an absolute bonus. Of special note was the presentation of the grounds - the fact that the tennis court had the leaves blown off it every morning religiously and the pool area kept absolutely spotless in presentation is once again a credit to the owners.

On arrival the room had been sprayed with a very strong air-freshener which, for my wife a sinus/hay fever sufferer, caused a headache which lasted a day - airing of the room for 4 hours on arrival alleviated the majority of the freshener. This incident will be remembered for our next stay at Starline Alpacas as we will request that the room not be sprayed before we arrive.

Lovely stay for a family with kids, they loved to wake up with animals in front of our house. They enjoyed to feed alpacas and goats. The resort is in the middle of Hunter Valley, really lovely region for wine lovers. Staff was very kind. Laundry available for free. Playground for kids.

Not so many options for eating in the surroundings. WiFi is available only paying.

The peace and quiet. The relaxed atmosphere the animals bring to the stay.

Booking a suite advertised as being for adults/couples and sleeps 2 only to find that we had a family with 2 young children on one side of us and a family with a toddler on the other. We are not criticising the families or children they were well behaved but the crying in the middle of the night and early morning noise was not what we had booked for.

Great place to stay with young family. Lots of farm animals around in big property and kids can go around feeding them. Staff are really friendly. All cottages are good size. Fun place to be with the group as well.

Little further away from the main town - Cessnock so if you want food options, you need to drive 30 minutes or so.
