‘Tara-Lee’
A pet-friendly pool stay with near-perfect guest reviews
About this stay
'Tara-Lee' combines a saltwater pool, a pet-friendly policy and a 9.9 guest rating into one property, a rare combination in an area where pool access and pet policies don't always overlap. The sun terrace extends the pool deck into a full outdoor living space, and the lush garden gives the household dog room to roam beyond the pool area itself. Three bedrooms and family rooms suit a couple travelling with a dog or a small family, and the fully equipped kitchen handles self-catering across a multi-night stay. Free WiFi covers connectivity, and the property sits roughly 12 kilometres from Hunter Valley Gardens, close enough for an easy day of cellar-door visits either side of pool time.

Our take
This suits dog owners who don't want to trade pool access for a pet-friendly policy, since 'Tara-Lee' delivers both alongside a near-perfect guest rating. Couples and small families both get genuine value from the layout. Larger groups needing four or more bedrooms should look elsewhere, since this property is sized for a smaller party.
- ✓Let the dog explore the lush garden on arrival before settling in for the first evening by the pool.
- ✓Book pool time for the afternoon, using the sun terrace for a slower morning before the day's tastings start.
- ✓Check the specific pet policy terms ahead of arrival, even with a strong pet-friendly reputation for this property.

Why guests love itTara-Lee is a three-bedroom, two-bathroom holiday home that welcomes pets, about 12 kilometres from Hunter Valley Gardens. The saltwater pool and sun terrace keep children busy on warm afternoons, the lush garden gives the family dog room to roam, and the fully equipped kitchen and free Wi-Fi make longer stays easy. Guests rate it 9.9 across 31 reviews. My editorial advice: alternate pool time with short outings nearby and plan most dinners at home.
