Friendly welcome, nice country home atmosphere, comfortable and clean room with a good bed, air-con heating, nice bathroom. Plenty of tea/coffee refreshments. Very accommodating management and staff. Overall, a very pleasant atmosphere. We asked if dinner was available and were very happy to find that an excellent meal was prepared in a short time and for a quite reasonable price. Continental breakfast was generous and delicious. We have no hesitation in recommending Maddie's B&B.

The breakfast we had was very good. The add on booking.com did not say that it was a continental breakfast. So that needs to be changed on the site

Maddies is a delightful home built in the late 1800's , which is set among lovely gardens and water features. It is the longest operating b&b in the Maitland area. Just 2 hrs north of Sydney it is centrally located to experience all the Hunter Valley has to offer. Bolwarra is situated in scenic farmland between historic Maitland and Morpeth. Close to wineries , local wedding venues, Barrington tops National park , Port Stephens and Newcastle. This unique setting provides an ideal location for a relaxed getaway , private function or intimate wedding. Maddies provides accommodation for up to 7 adults and offers the convenience of private facilities. All 3 bedrooms have their own bathrooms- 2 with a deep claw footed bath. The inclusion of mosquito nets, period furniture and quality linen all add to the old world feel. Self contained accommodation for up to 6 guests is also available at a nearby property.
Wendy and Alison Hunter renovated this beautiful 1800's home with their father back in 1997. This resulted into the quaint and well-appointed B&B that Maddies is today. Their love and dedication continued with this property resulting in the addition of luscious manicured gardens, waterfall ponds and an out door pergola that is designed for exclusive weddings and functions. 'We have put our hearts into creating a special retreat for our guests, we hope they enjoy Maddies just as much as we do!'- W & A Hunter
Historical Morpeth- just a mere 10 minute drive from Maddies. Morpeth has many specialty shops including Alpaca wool barn, clothing, antiques, eateries, just to name a few. Morpeth also has a large park , museum and wharf. Maitland CBD- 5 minute drive from Maddies. Newly renovated Maitland CBD, 'Levee' is defined by variety offering entertainment and dining options. A blend of small buisness , Art gallery, Gaol (including tours),Library , swimming pool and park. Tocal and Paterson-22 minute drive from Maddies. Tocal and Paterson are surrounded by farmlands and situated 1.4 hrs from Barrington tops. With much to offer from- Tocal homestead farm tours, Tocal field days, Paterson Golf club, John Tucker park, Paterson rail motor Museum, walks and fishing.
