Most helpful and continued contact from initial enquiry until departure. Spa was great after a long days drive. Dining menu and service was worthy of MasterChef. All staff went above expectations to make our stay very pleasant

Stayed in a family room - which was 2 singles in one room, and queen in adjoining room, with bathroom off the master room. Being able to put the kids to bed, and then watch the 2nd tv was a bonus. The room was in need of an update - airconditioner was ancient, carpet was very stained - making it... More

Lovely friendly motel. Rooms very clean. Recommended. Can't understand why the truck drivers have to sound their horns when driving into town at 3am though. Completely unnecessary. Even so, we will stay here again.

My wife and I stayed here one night heading north.The room was adequate without being exciting but importantly was perfectly comfortable and far enough from the highway for us to sleep like logs. Perhaps the sleep was helped by the fact that Airlie House has a very cozy bar adjoining an equally charming restaurant. Add in some genuine warmth shown... More

The motel units were around the three star rating but unfortunately all were situated within 35 metres of the New England Highway. Minor soundproofing did not drown out the sound of mining trucks until 3am in the morning. Whilst any accommodation on a main thoroughfare experiences a degree of noise, I spent most of the night wondering whether my morning... More

The owners of Airlie always make me feel like nothing is a hastle. They are wonderful people who make me feel very welcome. It is a home away from home for a person who works in the upper valley alot for work. Thankyou for making my stay here a pleasure!! nothing is ever too much for any of the staff.... More

We stayed here for one night in December 2011 in a family style room which was two rooms with an adjoining door. Good value for money, rooms were clean and lots of character. We had dinner in the restaurant and the food was delicious - would recommend it.

We stayed one night at the Airlie House. Scone seems to have lost it's shine a bit and the mines in the surrounding area don't combine very well with vineyards. We find the lower Hunter better preserved. When you would like to stay for the night in Scone then this is a good place. Don't expect luxury or a quiet... More
