The Barn was never actually a barn, it was simply styled on a barn. It is one of our most popular cottages as it suits couples equally as well as suiting a small family or some friends. A queen-sized bedroom downstairs and a cosy loft area with 2 queen beds provide all the sleeping comforts you desire. Quality linen and towels are all provided and the kitchen has all you will need to cook with. You’ll also find a gas BBQ on the veranda. Just bring your food and drink and you’re all set. Room Configurations: Bedroom 1: Queen Bed Loft: Two Queen beds The barn is a freestanding, self-contained cottage. Madigan is a self-check-in property with a check-in time after 3pm. After booking, details of the check-in process will be sent to you. We always strive to accommodate early check-in and late check-out requests, so please inform us if you plan to arrive earlier than the set check-in time. Madigan Cottages has 5 self contained cottages on 100 wide open acres. We also have Stomp! Wine operating their cellar door on site. You'll find lots of nature including kangaroos and rabbits as well as waterbirds on our dams. We have some paddocks with agisted horses - to look at not touch :) We are centrally located to all the Pokolbin and Lovedale area cellar doors, restaurants, golf courses etc and are a pick up point for all Hunter Valley concerts. You will need a car to travel around Hunter Valley. However, there are small bus operators that serve the wine region and are willing to pick you up in Madigan. There is plenty of open land for walking, biking, or simply relaxing on the verandah (or at the cellar door located on our property) to enjoy the tranquility and beautiful sunsets.

Aug 19, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy My family are having a very happy time here. It's a truly beautiful, peaceful place. As soon as my daughters got here they screamed because they loved it!! The sunset here was fantastic. My teenage daughters, my dog Winnie, and my husband and I had a very peaceful and relaxing time. For city dwellers, a place like this is a much-needed escape. Elena was also very friendly and easy to contact, so there were no inconveniences. ##### yun kyung l.
