Escape to a very private retreat for couples in the Hunter Valley wine region on a 20 acre property of natural bushland and views from every room. Lowanna Retreat is furnished in greens and charcoals, with natural bamboo flooring, custom made furniture and enjoys a northerly aspect, nestled below a spectacular rocky outcrop with valley views. This tranquil setting provides a wonderful backdrop to a romantic and luxurious space, designed especially for couples with contemporary styling and everything you could possibly need for first class comfort. Take a soak in the great big double bath while enjoying fabulous bushland vistas and sounds of nearby wildlife. Cuddle up on the spacious sofa in front of the gas log fireplace with a cheese platter made to order, and absorb the unique ambience of this wonderfully serene space. Be pampered with an in-house massage with professional therapists - the ultimate indulgence for a relaxing getaway.
Wollombi is located at the Southern end of the Hunter Valley, along the historic Convict Trail, where relics such as stone retaining walls, wharves, culverts, bridges and buttresses built by convicts can still be seen along the entire length of the Great North Road, a very scenic and alternative route to the highway. Take in a full day wine tour of the region, personalised tours with pickup right from your door. Enjoy a selection of cellar doors and options such as cheese tasting, ploughman's style lunch in the vines, brewery tour, chocolate and wine matching experience, and visit to an olive mill. For a unique experience you might like to try a tour by helicopter where you can enjoy a scenic flight over the Hunter Valley during the day or at twilight, and lunch or dinner in a fabulous restaurant in the main vineyards district. Somewhere Unique is minutes from the historic Wollombi village in Hunter Valley Wine Country, two hours from Sydney and one hour from Newcastle and the Central Coast.

What a fantastic place to stay. The retreats are beautifully situated and very serene. We opted for the dining package and can highly recommend it. Not only were the breakfast provisions good quality and plentiful, so was the cheese platter and BBQ dinner. Lunch at Margans (included in this package) was simply superb. Other nice touches include good quality toiletries, great quality bedding, bikes and of course that gorgeous tub! We stayed there on the recommendation of friends, and I am glad that they shared this very special place with us!

This was our second trip to Somewhere Unique and again an absolute joy to visit. The area is itself beautiful but so was our home for three nights. Well appointed retreats with everything a hedonist could want. The provisions for our stay were excellent. Nothing was missed by our hosts and everything done without fuss. A very welcoming space but with the beauty of the nature outside as well. We are already planning our return! As a side comment, we had an excellent breakfast at Café Wollombi - excellent food and coffee and very friendly staff.
