Have you ever wanted to try hot air ballooning? Balloon Safaris  and Balloon Aloft frequently fly over our property - it really is a great way to start the morning and the view across the valley is spectacular. We loved it.  Ballooning offers a different view of the valley every day, weather permitting.

If ballooning is a bit slow for you, perhaps a helicopter tour is more your cup of tea. Hunter Wine Helicopters can meet all your needs.

When travelling around, if you don't fancy driving, let someone else take you to all your favorite vineyards. And if you are not sure where you want to go, Hunter Valley Wine Tours will do the thinking for you. If you don't feel like driving to the Hunter, Boutique Wine Tours conduct daily wine tours that leave from Sydney visiting the boutique wineries of the Hunter Valley.

Need somewhere nice for lunch or dinner? You can't go past some of the Valleys best restaurants, located right here in Lovedale. We suggest you sample the delights of Mojos on Wilderness (dinner only), Leaves and Fishes, Amanda's on the Edge, Chez Pok or Shakey Tables.

You can sample a wide variety of wines at the other Lovedale Cellar Doors, such as Emmas Cottage, Warraroong Estate, Wandin Valley, Allandale Winery, Sandalyn Estate, Cooper Wines, Capercaillie, Adina, Tatler Wines and Majors Lane, all without driving too far.

How about accommodation? There are several delightful places around the Valley to try, such as Abelia House B&B, Rosedale Bed & Breakfast, Blackwattle Cottage, Lovedale Cottages, Wilderness Cottages, Wilderness Grove, Lilies, Woodlane Cottages, Vineyard Hill, Manzanilla Ridge, The Cooperage, or Sovereign Hill, to name a few.
