HUNTER VALLEY GARDENS AND THE VINEYARDS.   Approximately 35 minutes drive away from Morpeth Lodge Motel are the Hunter Valley Gardens and the many Vineyards that the Hunter Valley is famous for.  The Gardens are well-known for the wonderful Christmas lights on display in December as well as the beautifully maintained gardens that you can wander through.  Also there is an Aqua-Golf range specially equipped with floating golf balls for those of you fancying golf with a difference!  The Gardens sit in the midst of many, many wonderful vineyards.  You can take a leisurely drive through the countryside, stopping at as many vineyards as you want, or arrange a pick-up from the Motel through one of the local Tour Companies and learn about the different wines, cheeses, olives etc that are on offer.  Enjoy tasting some of the beautiful wines without having to worry about driving back to the Motel at the end of the day!
Hunter Valley Gardens, along with other beautiful locations such as Bimbadgen Estate and the Hope Estate, are also host to many Concerts and Events throughout the year.  The area has hosted concerts for Elton John, Rod Stewart, Fleetwood Mac, The Proclaimers, and Ronan Keating, and stars such as Rob Thomas and Whitney Houston are appearing in the near future.  With Morpeth Lodge Motel situated a comfortable 35 minute drive from these locations, or close to a local coach pick-up point for most concerts, we are an ideal base for those guests wanting to stay locally with the flexibility of 1 or more nights accommodation.
