Hunter Valley New South Wales

Golf, Wine & Rollings Hills
The Hunter Valley is NSW’s ultimate wine and golf destination, offering championship courses surrounded by vineyards, boutique resorts, and gourmet experiences. With its world-class cellar doors and scenic countryside, it’s the perfect blend of play and indulgence.

Best time to Visit?
Golfing conditions are best between March and May, or September to November, when mild weather and golden light stretch across the vineyards.

TIP:   Plan your trip during autumn harvest (April) or spring bloom (October) to pair golf with winery experiences and food festivals.

Travel & Transport 
Located just 2 hours north of Sydney, the Hunter is an easy drive for weekend escapes or midweek getaways. The region is well-serviced by Newcastle Airport, about 45 minutes away.

TIP: Ask about group transfers, self-drive options, or add-on winery shuttles to pair golf with tastings.

Booking Tee Times:
Courses like The Vintage, Cypress Lakes, and Hunter Valley Golf & Country Club are in high demand, especially on weekends and during events.

TIP:   Book early for preferred tee times at The Vintage (a Greg Norman-designed favourite), and ask about twilight rounds to enjoy golden-hour golf among the vines.
