Aquila - 4 bedroom home with amazing valley views and swimming pool
Nestled on a lush mountain escarpment, high above the vineyards and green rolling hills of the beautiful Mount View region, Aquila offers group accommodation with undoubtedly some of the best views of any house in the Hunter Valley. On a clear day, you can see right across the vineyards to the Newcastle coastline that certainly is some view! Unwind at Aquila with the following bedding configuration: Bedroom 1 Queen with ensuite Bedroom 2 Queen bed Bedroom 3 Queen bed Bedroom 4 Twin single beds Sofa bed TV room Sofa bed Main lounge room Aquila is simply perfect all year round, with a wood-burning fireplace to cosy up to in winter and a refreshing swimming pool for the summer months. And, being just a short drive from the iconic Bistro Molines at Tallavera Grove, you can choose to dine out or in; either way youll have the best view in town!
The renting experience was great. Didnât like the last minute $1000 withdrawal cover from my account which was held for a long period, but all else was oy.
It was a good house for a family getaway, to relax and watch the view
We enjoyed our stay at the property, itâs layout had a lot of steps and the drive up to the property was very steep. Luckily we had hired a four wheel drive.
The kids used the pool but it was pretty cold as it didnât have heating and the spa didnât work.
It was clean and tidy as far as properties go and the property manager was very efficient.
We stayed as a group of friends. We enjoyed the property however the outdoor entertaining area is not suitable for a group of 8. I was concerned as I could not see any photos of outdoor entertaining/seating on the website.
The front verandah is not wide enough to sit with table and chairs unless you sit next to each other. Anyway we made do with what we had and had a great time.
The sunrise and view of an evening is stunning and we got to see 9 hot air balloons taking off one morning.
The main thing was we had a great time anyway and it did not affect our stay.
The place had a lovely view and a beautiful pool overlooking wineries. However, there was a mouse in the house that we were not warned about beforehand.
Given it is a health issue, I would have not rented the place if I knew about it.
The property is beautiful and largely well maintained (minor issues like some lights not working etc). The photos do not do the property or itâs view justice. This place was perfect for a peaceful getaway with friends.
Aquila was perfect for our family of 8. Well catered for all ages. Kitchen was fully equipped. Beautiful relaxing views day and night. Pool was well used!
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
Thank you!

Great way to spend a few days
The property was pretty awesome, amazing views, very remote, and really relaxing. There were only minor issues like a couple of lights not working, and as soon as we rang up they were happy to help. Would definitely stay there again if I were looking at the hunter region.
Loved our weekend , once we found the house ( quite difficult as there is no signs or name to guide us, and it is a bit out of the way. We had to ask two people directions, and they were guessing. ) The house was very well looked after and everything we needed was there. The view from the balcony was out of this world and made even better by the telescope that we used all night.
Overall a great time was had by all.
A wonderful relaxing time, very comfortable, clean and everything we might need provided. Hoping we can get back there there again sometime. Kids enjoyed the pool. Sunset over the valley was beautiful, only to be eclipsed by hot air balloons rising at sunrise.? The entire booking process went very smoothly and phone enquiries were dealt with helpfully.
We did not spend much time at the house as we we celebrating elsewhere but were extremely comfortable while we were there. Spent most of our prescious moments on the balcony drinking in the spectacular view!
