Looking for Wine tours in Hunter Valley: Travel by train

I recently stayed at the Comfort Inn at Cessnock which is in your price
range.
It was of a reasonable comfortable standard and is within about 60 seconds
walk to the main street and Pubs etc for meals.
Even though we had a car in which to tour the Vineyards I did notice that
Wine Tours were available from the motel.

Hi Geoff,

Thank you for your info.
It seems that I would be better off by finding
accomodation in Cessnock or Maitland.

I am wondering whether you would be able to
give me a rough idea of accomodation prices
in Cessnock or Maitland. Is it realistic to find
double/tripple accomodation for $60-80 in Maitland
or Cessnock ?

thanks and cheers

Maitland has four direct trains a day from Sydney - Countrylink. You can
also get there on Cityrail trains, but that requires a change at Hamilton
and is much slower. A site for Maitland Accomm is -
