@cntraveler

"Set among rolling grape vines and native bush, boutique hotel Spicers Vineyards Estate is about a two hours’ drive north of Sydney in the Hunter Valley wine region— just far enough for a long weekend away. Not content to be a secluded, gourmet getaway (the regionally-focused dining program here is top-notch), the retreat is also a pampering destination: detox in style at Spa Anise, then retox with a sampling of the hotel's wines. We especially like the small-harvest Chardonnay—the grapes are grown right in the hotel's own paddock out front." - Sophie Davies
