Property Overview

In the heart of the Hunter Valley, Spicers Guesthouse has been a favorite of industry legends for decades, and the celebration of fine wine, food, and conviviality continues with gusto to this day. The soaring wine wall takes center stage, setting the tone for an immersive experience in one of Australia's great wine destinations.

Accommodations

Inspired by Australia's Hunter region.

The luxuriously appointed rooms at Spicers Guesthouse feature a classic contemporary feel, drawing upon the natural color scheme of the Hunter Valley as inspiration for the interiors. The King Deluxe rooms are amongst the most sought-after. Located on the ground and first floor, each features a king-size bed, spacious ensuite bathroom, and access to a communal guest lounge space on both levels.
Pool

An infinity-edge pool overlooking the valley.

Quiet days spent on the estate's grounds are best by the swimming pool, with views over the surrounding landscapes and plush daybeds for sunbathing.
Restaurant + Bar

European countryside dining.

éRemo is a dining experience rooted in cultural depth and genuine warmth, reminiscent of a long and unhurried meal at a relative's home in the European countryside. The Avido menu takes its name from the Italian word 'greedy,' a clear signal that dishes here are rewarding; no one leaves hungry.

The bar offers a wine list as generous as the menu, deeply rooted in the Hunter Valley while ranging across the best of Australian wine country, from the Adelaide Hills and Margaret River to the Yarra Valley. A well-chosen selection of Italian and French wines rounds out the picture, with something to discover for the adventurous and plenty of old favorites for those who know what they love.
  • Vibe
    A modern country farmhouse with a healthy obsession with indulgence. Think: sandstone walls, open fires, and sculpted gardens spilling over with vine leaves.
  • Who's it for?
    Spicers Guesthouse suits couples and leisure groups looking to immerse themselves in the Hunter Valley wine scene, as well as those planning engagements, weddings, or corporate retreats. Families are welcome too, and with cellar doors, outdoor activities, and éRemo all on the doorstep, there's rarely a reason to venture far.
  • Location
    Located in the middle of the Hunter Valley, Australia's oldest wine region, the estate is conveniently surrounded by many of the biggest and brightest cellar doors in the region. It's the ideal launchpad for private winery tours across the region’s varied cellar doors. Beyond the vineyards, the region is also ideal for exploring local produce at restaurants, hot air ballooning, horse riding, and golf.
