The house was very clean with good facilities & a nice high bushy outlook from the big outdoor deck & was only a few minutes from Singleton. The Hosts Daniel & Millie were wonderful, so friendly & welcoming & they absolutely loved our Greyhound...

Beautiful spot, close to town, but not too close that you don't get the beautiful views across the valley. Even kangaroos in the huge back yard. The owners are fantastic and we had some great chats.

Welcome to The Haven House — a peaceful country escape where kangaroos wander past at sunrise and sunset, birds glide across open skies, and the surrounding Heuston parklands create a calm, rural atmosphere. Just 30–40 minutes from Pokolbin’s iconic Hunter Valley wineries, your stay becomes part of the experience — a beautiful drive through Singleton’s peaceful countryside before you arrive at world‑class tastings, long lunches and vineyard views. Pets are warmly welcomed, so your furry companions can enjoy the adventure too. The Haven House is also available for small events, including intimate weddings, birthdays, family gatherings and special celebrations (by request and at an additional cost).

We genuinely love hosting—there’s something special about meeting new people, sharing our favourite local spots, and creating a space where you can truly unwind.
