Long Lunches in the Hunter Valley
Take your dining experience to the next level with an exquisite long lunch in the heart of the Hunter Valley. Nestled in picturesque Pokolbin, lunch is served outdoors on the grounds of a beautiful, picture-perfect country estate.
Perfectly manicured gardens fill the crisp and clean air with an intoxicating floral fragrance. Towering trees provide a lush green canopy above the dining area. And locally sourced seasonal produce paired with beautifully flavoursome wines is the piece de resistance. Forget about noise and pollution; this is a place of peace and tranquillity.
As winter rapidly comes to an end and spring starts bursting into life, the promise of warmer days ahead awaits. But if there’s still a chill in the air, the gently burning embers of the fire pit will keep you nice and toasty.
Take your seat on one of the beautifully laid-out tables and soak up views of the gardens, gently flowing waterways and spectacular gums. Each long lunch features homegrown and locally sourced produce for food that is so fresh, you can taste the difference.
With much of the produce grown in the Country Estates very own vegetable garden, voco™ Kirkton Park Hunter Valley truly lives up to its ‘estate to plate‘ philosophy. Bountiful shared platters of sensational seasonal cuisine change throughout the year as different products come into season.
More than Just Food
While the food is definitely the star of the show at our Hunter Valley long lunches, the whole experience goes far, far beyond this. Specially selected wines produced in the local area are carefully chosen to complement your meal. As the seasons and ingredients change throughout the year, so will the wine selection.
But, going beyond the wine (if that’s even possible to say) is the experience of spending some truly magical, memory-making moments with your closest family and friends. Each element of the long lunch perfectly complements the next, creating a refined ambience filled with amazing company, delicious food and drink, and surrounds that are as beautiful as the day itself.
