    This is a very comfortable place to stay with rural vistas from the garden. There is a nice Thai restaurant just down the road but otherwise you will need to drive for dinner. It is quiet and peaceful. We were looked after really well and would...

Alison Hunter
Maddies is a delightful home built in the late 1800's , which is set among lovely gardens and water features. It is the longest operating B&B in the Maitland area. Just 2 hrs north of Sydney it is centrally located to experience all the Hunter Valley has to offer. Bolwarra is situated in scenic farmland between historic Maitland and Morpeth. Close to wineries , local wedding venues, Barrington tops National park , Port Stephens and Newcastle. This unique setting provides an ideal location for a relaxed getaway , private function or intimate wedding. Maddies provides accommodation for up to 15 adults and offers the convenience of private facilities. All five bedrooms have their own bathrooms - two with a deep claw-footed bath. The inclusion of mosquito nets, period furniture and fine linen all add to that old world feel.
Wendy and Alison Hunter renovated this beautiful 1800's home with their father back in 1997. This resulted into the quaint and well-appointed B&B that Maddies is today. Their love and dedication continued with this property resulting in the addition of meandering gardens, water features and an out door rotunda that is designed for exclusive weddings and functions. 'We have put our hearts into creating a special retreat for our guests, we hope they enjoy Maddies just as much as we do!'- W & A Hunter
