Naturally, it’s all about wine and testing your taste buds. Take your palate on holiday to Spicers Vineyards Estate and you’ll be able to treat them to phenomenal local wines that comparatively few connoisseurs have sampled. You’ll indulge in the regional classics that have given the Hunter Valley its international reputation. And you’ll sample the great vintages that have given Australia its rightful place on the world wine stage.

But you can also put a cork in it, and discover the other treats this remarkable part of New South Wales has to offer. Hot air ballooning over rolling countryside at daybreak, for example. Or riding – on horse or bicycle – to view the stupendous Molly Morgan Range. Or taking a helicopter flight, for a bird’s eye view.
