SLOW COUNTRY LIVING IN THE HUNTER VALLEY

Our Story

WALLARINGA FARM IS A LUXURY FARM STAY AND INTIMATE ELOPEMENT DESTINATION IN THE HUNTER VALLEY, CREATED FOR GUESTS TO SLOW DOWN, RECONNECT AND EXPERIENCE THE QUIET BEAUTY OF RURAL AUSTRALIA.

Located between Paterson and Dungog in the Hunter Valley, just over two hours’ drive from Sydney, Wallaringa Farm is a peaceful country retreat shaped by nature, thoughtful design and a genuine love of bringing people together.

At the heart of the property is the Wallaringa Farmhouse, a private farm stay welcoming families and friends seeking space, comfort and time together. Guests can settle into the slower rhythm of country life, explore the surrounding Hunter Valley and enjoy the privacy of their own rural escape.

Wallaringa Farm is also known for its intimate country elopements. Each celebration is thoughtfully created for couples who value meaning over tradition, with heartfelt ceremonies, beautiful rural scenery and the freedom to experience their wedding day in a way that feels entirely their own.

The next chapter is The Stables at Wallaringa Farm, our new adults only accommodation opening in 2026. South Stable and North Stable are two architecturally designed stays created exclusively for couples, bringing a refined new experience to the property while remaining true to the warmth, tranquillity and sense of place that define Wallaringa Farm.
