The Table Guest House

Whilst visiting family on the Central Coast we decided to have some us time in the Hunter Valley and stayed at the Table Guest House. What a gem of a find! Our host Jo, very ably supported by her hairy little helper Harvey, couldn’t have been more welcoming and prepared a fantastic meal that evening, and what a meal. Nothing was too much trouble. One of the highlights of our visit to Australia and superb value!

The Table is well located for visiting cellar doors in the Hunter Valley. The guesthouse is warm and homely. There is only a small number of guest rooms so it feels very private, quiet and personal. It also has a cosy common area and picturesque courtyard. Jo is an exceptional host. Her personal care is reflected in herself and the attention to detail at the guesthouse. Jo warmly welcomed us on arrival with refreshments and a toasty wood fire. She included extra details in the room like beautiful sheets, extra blankets and complementary snacks. Jo’s cooking was a real highlight. She is an experienced chef with great skill. The breakfasts and dinner we enjoyed were delicious. Jo was very adaptable in cooking for dietary requirements. It was lovely to hear that she uses some home grown produce where possible.

We cannot recommend The Table Guesthouse highly enough. Its like like little piece of Tuscany in the Hunter Valley. We stayed here with our miniature poodle after eloping in the Hunter and felt right at home. There is a beautiful courtyard that greets you upon entering, with exposed wood throughout the interior, a warm lounge area with a fire place that is so cosy you'll forget you're staying at accommodation .. it feel like you're staying with friends or an Aunty's place. I cannot speak highly enough of Jo. She is friendly, welcoming, kind and so helpful. Not to mention, the reviews of the excellent breakfast are on point. She also offers tours to pet friendly wineries so we could bring our little dog along. We truly left feeling like we'd made a new friend and were not ready to leave. Although, we'd love to keep this gem a secret 😉 we highly recommend stopping by. We only wish we had made a longer booking and we intend on coming back soon. Special mention to the friendly fur resident Harvey. Rico misses you. Much love 😊🥰

I booked The Table as my guest house accommodation while attending a wedding in Polkobin (The Convent). I could not have been happier with my choice. Jo is an incredible host and chef and from the moment I arrived from Sydney later than planned to a smiling host, offer of a drink, a warm fire and 3 course meal. I knew I was in for a delightful weekend. The bed was so soft and cosy. The 3 course breakfast was incredible. Jo went out of her way to offer this busy mum the R&R she so very much needed, even dropping me at the wedding the following day, a good 25 minute drive away. Her adorable dog Harvey is an added bonus. This gem of a place feels like a warm hug. I will definitely be back - and am tempted to book out the whole place out (and Jo) with friends. Romantic, restful and cosy. Give this local business your business. You won't be disappointed. Tours, carriages, lunches and dinners were available on request with as much or as little conversation as you would like. Jo seems to know exactly what her guests need. Thank you again for such a personalised service Jo! See you again.

Thank you Jo for a wonderful stay the room was very comfortable quiet and clean. The dinner and breakfasts were fresh homely and delicious we had such a relaxing weekend and your garden with water features and fish just tranquil we will definitely be back and recommend to our friends to come and stay.

Hubby, Molly, Milo and I had the pleasure of unwinding at the Table Guesthouse with Jo and Harvey for 5 nights. Jo is the most amazing host we have ever encountered. Nothing was too much trouble, every day she checked in to see if there was something she could do to make the stay more enjoyable. Jo kindly puppy sat so we could enjoy a night and day out, arranged lunch and wine tasting and dropped us off at a few places. Nothing was too much trouble. The breakfast and dinner was amazing and it’s a lovely place just to just hang out and relax. 3 course breakfast in the gorgeous courtyard was a lovely way to start the day. Dinner in the courtyard is a must do as well. Bedrooms very comfortable and well equiped. Can’t wait to come back for winter!
