About this house rental
Awarded 2020 Trip Advisor's Travellers Choice Award and 2018/2019 TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for providing consistently outstanding experiences and whose owners offer first-class customer service to their guests.
Tharah is situated in one of the most sought-after areas of the vineyards, home to Bistro Molines, boutique wineries and cellar doors. Tharah proudly sits on 6 park-like acres in picturesque Mount View, with un-interrupted views of the surrounding hills and ranges. This property ideal for those larger groups of families and friends or corporate clients looking for a peaceful retreat at the foot of the mountains.
This remarkable country homestead will embrace you with its friendly and welcoming feel. You will be instantly impressed with the beautifully landscaped gardens and manicured hedges. The generous open-plan spaces and large living areas, complete with an expansive covered outdoor entertaining area, spilling onto a sparkling in-ground pool and outdoor pizza oven makes the ideal setting for entertaining your family and friends. The new games room boasts a pool table, dart board and table tennis table.
Boasting 9 spacious bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms (including 2 ensuites-one featuring a corner spa bath), this impressive homestead can comfortably accommodate up to 22 guests or 18 guests in separate beds.
Tharah features a large brand new open-plan country-style kitchen with stone bench-tops, stainless steel appliances as well as an impressive country-style oven and cook-top, large enough to cater perfectly for those special family occasions and celebrations! The kitchen flows seamlessly into a large dining area with slow-combustion wood burning fire and breath-taking views over the in-ground pool to the surrounding vineyards and mountains beyond.
With 9 foot ceilings throughout, reverse cycle ducted air-conditioning, 2 over-size lounge areas featuring a double wood-burning fireplace, Tharah is the perfect choice to relax and unwind with your favourite glass of hunter vino! The large pet friendly yard means your best four-legged friend doesn't have to miss out on all that Tharah has to offer! (Please note the fencing is farm fencing and is not fully enclosed).
Tharah is remarkably private but is located just a short drive to concert venues and within walking distance to the Valley's finest restaurants and wineries. You have Peterson's Winery to the right, Briar Ridge directly across the road, and Bistro Molines and Tallavera Grove just 700m away.

We went to Tharah to celebrate 3 of our friends turning 60. The property was magnificient - we loved everything about our stay. The house was immaculant and had everything we could wish for. The location was fabulous and only a few minutes walk to a local winery Briar Ridge for wine tasting. We highly recommend Tharah and hope to return.

Our family of 16 adults and dog had a wonderful long weekend at Tharah. The location is beautiful and close to some great wineries. Generally the facilities at the house were good.I’ll write privately regarding some suggestions. Thank you to the staff at Hunter Valley Stayz for good communication and returning the forgotten hairdryer!

Tharah met and exceeded our expectations for our Family Reunion for 16 guests (and 2 dogs) in Feb, 2023. The property was missing nothing to make the stay thoroughly enjoyable and entertaining for guests ranging from 18 to 87! The ability to self-cater with every confidence that there were all the amenities to enable us to do so made for a hugely successful time. We utilized every resource while there..... the pool, the games room, the pizza oven, the BBQ, the completely equipped kitchen, local wineries, and other amenities. We practically lived outdoors under the covered patio which lent itself perfectly to hot summer days. The home was spotlessly clean and well serviced prior to our arrival. Thank you to the managers of this property! A few tiny attention to details that are just routine wear and tear we have made note of, but nothing of any importance. Highly recommend this property!!

This was one of the best accommodations we have ever had the pleasure of staying at. It allowed our family to stay & play together. What we loved a lot was the dining table that allowed our entire family to sit down together for the first time ever. I couldn't recommend Tharah House enough it has everything you could want or need.

Tharah is fantastic for larger groups and the location is simply breathtaking. The house was well kept, although a few things needing some TLC. Outdoor area could use a good clean but was great to have. A few lights wouldn’t work inside however other than that everything was fantastic. Will certainly use Tharah again!

We had the best time with our family at "Tharah". The house has spacious living areas , comfortable lounges and decorated beautifully. The kitchen has 2 big fridges, a 4 oven stove and all the cooking equipment needed to cook meals for a large group.The large 22 seat dining table accommodated our family . A door leads from this area to a spacious covered entertaining area which has a long table and seating, bbq, wood fired pizza oven and a gas heater which makes it cosy even when the temperature is low. Just off this area is the fenced swimming pool [was too cold for a dip} but in warmer weather would be wonderful. The beds were very comfy and nice linen .The games shed is a great amenity, with table tennis, pool table[ in good condition] lounges , fridge etc.. Overall a perfect house to enjoy ones family or friends,[ we all felt it was our new home!] Owner John and Hunter Valley Stays are a very welcoming , helpful and caring team..thank you from all of us.

The house was spacious and accommodated our group quiet comfortably. Wonderful kitchen. House overall was acceptable and the grounds were great.
- Windows, window sills and fly screen need a thorough clean. Build up of dust and dirt
- outside entertaining area needs a thorough clean.
- exposed nails on kids play equipment.
- lounges and bed bases are heavily stained
- exhaust fans in bathrooms were really clogged and dirty
- heating in master bedroom(s) area didn’t work well.
- BBQ worked but we couldn’t cook off it.
- outside heater didn’t work unless we stood there holding the button on
- found spiders in children bed
- nowhere the hang clothes, only a few hooks in each room.
- house was clean on the surface but overall pretty grubby.
For the price to stay at this property, we were disappointed.

Fantastic House
This house was perfect for our large group stay. The facilities were excellent, and covered all bases. Plenty of beds, a very large kitchen and the games room which provided lots of entertainment. The house was clean and the location was great, with beautiful views. Properties that can accommodate such a large group are hard to find and we would highly recommend this one.

Best family holiday in years!

Absolutely fabulous home
We rented the house for our family wedding.. it was magnificent..
Each guest had a beautiful comfortable room to stay in for two nights.
The home is vast and has plenty of room for a large group.
The view is beyond beautiful.. stunning and so so relaxing.
Everything you need is there, including a pool and fantastic games room..
The Pizza oven makes delish pizzas and the outdoor deck fabulous for dining alfresco.
The indoor dining table is so large it comfortably fits the whole gang.
It is so tastefully decorated that everyone was commenting on how ingenious the design was.
Thank you Tharah .. you sure lived up to our expectations 😁�

An amazing family weekend
What a great place for a family or group get together in a beautiful rural setting.
We celebrated a family milestone with 9 adults and 9 children. The beds were comfortable and the bathrooms were plentiful and modern. The fact that we could sit all 18 around the magnificent dining table was great. We did the same outside as well. The pizza oven was well used.
The games room was very popular with the children as was the bonfire facility. "Awesome" was the word used.
The manager assisted with the retrieval of an item left behind. Great and friendly service.
Would recommend this property to any large group.

Relaxing with great views.
Property was great except the bedrooms on the east wing had a bug problem. 3 of the rooms had little worms in them and spiders. Other than that the property was great

Great place for large group
This is the 15th year this group has gone somewhere. Catering for all our needs takes quite a bit of planning.Tharah fulfilled all our requirements plus some. The play shed was enjoyed by the males ready to do battle over pool, table tennis and darts. The large kitchen and dining area allowed easy food preparation and the table allowed us all to be together. We were all impressed with the lovely decor and comfortable seating areas. We are deciding whether I need to search out alternate venues or we decide to make Tharah our annual escape.

Worth every cent!
Amazing property! Cannot fault it. Everyone had the best time. The games room was the best! Phenomenal! Also every dealing I had with Hunter Valley Stays reservations/customer service team was excellent. they made it so easy! Already keen to book again.

Comfort and luxury
We were a large group of 20 celebrating a family milestone and the house was perfect. Plenty of bedrooms, plenty of bathrooms, great communal areas......the dining table was perfect!!! The outside areas were great, again plenty of room for everyone. The pool and the games room were well used by young and old. Although we didn't use it much the lounge rooms were comfortable and although large still cosy, I think they would be very inviting in the cooler months.
The best part was the attention to detail in the fit out....plenty of quality plates, cutlery, glasses etc. The bedding was luxurious and comfortable.....everything was fabulous!

It was incredible! Such a great location and the house was immaculate
We enjoyed every minute! The facilities that the house had to offer catered for all our needs.

Luxurious big house family accommodation in Mount View.
Tharah was the perfect place for our family 5 day get together. 18 all ages. The weather was extraordinarily hot but the air/con and the pool helped us survive very happily. Lots of bedrooms and bathrooms- new and well appointed. A few more towel rails would be good. Fabulous kitchen and huge dining table and huge frig. Pool a few meters from house adjoining wide wooden veranda which has a huge table for outdoor meals.
House feels new and is styled in French Provincial. Could go on but I’m sure it’s clear this beautiful big house set on acreage with wonderful Australian country landscape view fills the bill for a beautiful Hunter Valley stay. No cleaning equipment provided. Only outdoor broom. Also access to outdoor tap would be good. Thoroughly luxurious. Thankyou.

A lovely country feel home for a Family Gathering
We celebrated our mother and grandmothers 80th Birthday over the October LWE.
Tharah was able to accommodate all 21 of us very comfortably, including two pups and a bird in a cage. Very kind to allow our pets to come along. The shared spaces were perfect for us. We used the pizza oven and made our own pizzas and the dough! The Mountain View’s were beautiful. We had one special dinner at Bistro Molines which is down the road 700 metres and some of us walked there, whilst some drove. I would recommend Tharah for a special family gathering. We all had a fabulous time.
