Looking to do a early hot air balloon ride with Balloons Alfot and then have lunch/tour of wineries (any suggestions?) Also looking for a nice B&B for one night, either before the tours or maybe after (haven't decided which is best.) Will be flying out of Sydney the day after Hunter Valley. I have looked at a couple of places on the web but nothing has stood out yet. Looking for a nice room with it's own bath, would like something secluded for a romatic evening. Help!

Not exactly a B & B but Peppers Convent at Peppertree Winery is really,really lovely. You can check it out at www.peppers.com.au

I have seen Pepper's on other sites but didn't research further. I just took a look at the website and the resort looks very nice. I think we may go with them, thanks for the suggestion. I think we may try a carriage ride for the afternoon also. Thanks!

On the same property with the Convent, there is (or at least there was a few years ago...I hope it;s still there) a wonderful restaurant called Robert's. Also Peppertree has one of the prettiest tasting rooms in the Hunter. The Convent is very cozy and the perfect place to stay in Hunter Valley.

Hi Lindsey - Yes it's still there and still has a marvelous reputation.
