Long Point Vineyard & Art Gallery — Attraction in Lake Cathie

Home grown large boutique winery that deals in quality. One of 2 wineries in the area. This is the smaller of the two. Can accommodate functions within the confines of a semi-permanent aluminium scaffold type outdoor all weather tent but I wouldn't be pushing for large numbers. Firstly the toilet amenities, although modern, are M/F only. ie. One of each. That would be the biggest constraint to hosting an event here. Secondly parking is a bit restricted. You gould do 20 or so cars in the designated area but after that you would have to park a little further away under some shady trees and walk it. However, for smaller functions like special occasion birthdays, it looks ideal. Covered BBQ cum outdoor bar. What a great concept. How could that possibly go wrong in Oz? The Gallery. A bit small and I'm a bit disappointed not more of the local talent who turn wood don't have their stuff on display here. A larger gallery with a wider variety of material on display could do OK here. It's not that far off the beaten track and quirky enough to pull the discerning buyer. But digging into the hillside to build another would be cost prohibitive. What they need is a cheap Wattle & Daub type colonial slab hut ala the junky shop @ Wollombi and then pack it full of collectables sourced from the local tip ala Hill End. Rabbit traps, old kero lamps, turned wood, paintings etc. Worked for them. A couple of picnic table/bench arrangements under the trees. Gazebo on wooden deck overlooking dam is a nice place to have lunch but don't bring your 23' trailer and tug truck into the parking area and expect to turn around in the car park. As for the wines. Now this is the good bit. Average price for everything is like $30 but trust me, in 10 minutes you'll have spent $150. Each! Not normally a wine drinker. More a lager boy myselfbut walked out with home grown reds, liquers and a carton of ginger beer. Yes, it's not cheap but there's no pretense that they deal in volume. Host told us at the outset that only 39 cases of that vintage were produced. Most produce was grown and processed on site. Only exception was the orange liquer. But all of it was of...

Wonderful Wine Tasting Experience at Longpoint Vineyard & Art Gallery

We had a fantastic time at Longpoint Vineyard & Art Gallery. The setting was peaceful and beautiful, with glimpses of local wildlife adding to the charm.

The wine and liqueur tastings were generous in portion size, and the accompanying cheese platter was absolutely delightful—excellent quality and great value for money.

A special mention to Nicky, our host, who was incredibly warm, kind, and knowledgeable. She made the experience even more enjoyable with her insights into the wines and the local area.

Overall, we spent a truly lovely few hours here and would highly recommend it to anyone looking for a relaxed and enjoyable wine tasting...

What a wonderful choice we made when we visited here today. Our cellar door host, Nicki, was wonderful. So friendly and fun and full of knowledge, not only about the wines, but the area which proved invaluable to us. The wines? Divine! Only 9 of them for tasting, but all of them so easy on the palette and all so easy to drink! Also Nicky made sure the designated driver always asked before she poured if I wanted to taste and always only served a small amount. The small platter we had was more than enough for 2 with the cheeses, and chutneys being our favourites. We spent a very relaxing couple of hours here. If you’re ever in the area , make sure you give this place a go. You won’t be...
